The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The main reasons for the decline in revenue were the streamlining of the Publishing business and inventory reduction, as well as lower orders in the Corporate Services business. The main reasons for the increase in profit were higher dividend income and gains on the sale of equity holdings in the Investment Management business, together with cost savings from restructuring in the Software and Network business. Profit declined in the Education and Human Resources business due to higher costs, including recruitment expenses.
