Compare the wages for similar performed jobs in those two companies and you have your answer. One has a much lower cost base by paying staff **** all and continually trying to squeeze every last cent out of them. How can we increase staff productivity but not pay them a cent more for that? That’s why they have a 43% breakeven.
