Financial Results Briefing Materials for the Second Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending December 2026

In the first half of FY2026, consolidated revenue, operating profit and net income exceeded both the year-earlier period and plan, driven by increased demand, the acquisition of new customers and new categories, and the expansion of private-label products. Some office-related products and summer products fell short of plan, and initiatives to establish and improve these areas will be pursued in the second half.
