The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The increase in revenue and profit for the fiscal year ended March 2026 was attributable to solid performance in the trading cards, Surugaya, and stationery, miscellaneous goods and food businesses, despite difficult conditions in the bookstore business, as well as an increase in gross profit accompanying higher revenue. Net income was affected by the recognition of an impairment loss of ¥50 million and deferred income tax expense of ¥61 million, but also benefited from a gain on the sale of investment securities of ¥182 million. For the fiscal year ending March 2027, growth in revenue is expected in the trading cards and Surugaya businesses, while selling, general and administrative expenses, particularly personnel costs, are also expected to increase.
