The recovery of new customer acquisition in the mail-order business is taking longer than expected, while sales in the Recovery business fell short of plan due to intensifying competition, including on EC marketplaces. In terms of profit, selling expenses, mainly advertising expenses, are expected to come in below plan, and fixed-cost reductions, including personnel expenses and outsourcing costs, from structural cost reforms have exceeded plan.

The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Net sales are expected to fall short of plan due to delays in the recovery of new customer acquisition in the mail-order business and intensifying competition on EC marketplaces and other platforms. Profit forecasts remain at the level of the initial plan because, while selling expenses, mainly advertising expenses, and fixed costs such as personnel expenses and outsourcing costs are expected to decline by more than planned, the Company will make advertising and marketing investments in the fourth quarter to acquire new customers, launch new products, and increase awareness of the ベネクス brand.
