Items this document does not state (11)
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 main reasons were revenue growth, an improved gross profit margin, a lower SG&A ratio, and lower logistics-related costs resulting from the stable operation of the new logistics facility. In the merchandise sales business, growth in cosmetics and materials, and in the solutions business, an increase in the number of store lease and sublease contracts, drove revenue higher.
