II Reasons for the Revision
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we have done better than expected in new customer acquisition and expansion on existing customers. Thus we outperformed our guidance in revenue and profit or losses announced on May 9, 2022. Accordingly, we have made an upward revision on our consolidated full-year guidance.
