A sharp decline. The cumulative operating profit for the 3rd quarter (January to September 24) of the fiscal year ending 2014/12 is 0.444 billion yen, down 4.6% from the same period last year. The data control business remained steady, and sales increased 8.7% to 2.589 billion yen and secured an increase in sales. However, since efforts were focused on strengthening human capital management, profit declined because upfront investment exceeded record highs. It seems that they are also wary that profit growth is low from the second quarter cumulative total (13.7% increase of 0.385 billion yen), which was an increase in profit. Full year forecasts are not disclosed.
