The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Sales benefited from capturing consumer trends despite changes in consumer behavior amid uncertainty over the outlook for the situation in the Middle East, sales of trend products including IP-based content and beauty-related products, demand for bulk purchases, demand for UV-related and beauty products, and growth in sales of game consoles, household appliances and character-related products. In the UNY business, the decline following the surge in rice sales and the delayed launch of spring apparel products were negative factors, while focused promotional activities and demand for outings contributed to sales.
