We continued to work on improving quality and productivity, primarily in e-commerce and mail-order logistics support services, and promoted increased customer satisfaction. In response to rising domestic wages, we worked to improve profit margins by closely negotiating prices with customers to cope with personnel costs for warehouse operations.
In the IT automation business, although some customers canceled their contracts for the warehouse management system "Cloud Thomas Pro" due to a cyberattack, performance gradually recovered due to the securing of new large-scale projects. Sales reached 523,633,000 yen (up 58.1%), and segment profit was 80,486,000 yen (down 50.2%).
