The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The first quarter was challenging due to adverse weather, but the second quarter remained firm despite the impact of the Kumamoto Earthquake. The benefits of reviewing delivery operations centered on large furniture and consumables used at stores and other locations continued, reducing selling, general and administrative expenses, while an extraordinary loss related to disasters was recorded.
