Reason for the revision

The company had assumed higher raw material prices, including for rice and meat, persistently elevated energy costs and higher labor costs resulting from an increase in the minimum wage, and had worked to review its menu, revise prices and reduce selling, general and administrative expenses. However, as raw material prices remained higher than anticipated, operating profit, ordinary profit and net income fell short of the forecast.
