The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Rainy weather continued, particularly in eastern Japan, due to typhoons and the autumn rain front, and temperatures remained lower than the previous year. Autumn merchandise, including shirts, trousers and autumn new-life goods, performed well, but this failed to offset the decline in sales of summer merchandise, which usually sells well during the lingering summer heat.
