Items this document does not state (20)
These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The increase in interim revenue was driven by strong sales in the trading card, stationery, general merchandise and food, and Surugaya divisions, among others. As gross profit increased with higher sales, operating profit and ordinary profit increased despite higher selling, general and administrative expenses. The reduction in the full-year net income forecast reflects the absence of the ¥182 million gain on the sale of investment securities recorded as extraordinary income in the previous fiscal year.
