Reason for the revision

Existing-store sales remained firm at 101.9% year on year, while operating revenue is expected to fall slightly below the previous forecast due to delays in the timing of new store openings and other factors. Despite higher raw material prices and labor costs, sales from the Company’s own factories to external retailers and the frozen foods business significantly exceeded plan, increasing gross profit and prompting an upward revision to the profit forecasts.

Previous-period resultsOperating revenue: ¥5,958 million; operating profit: ¥227 million; ordinary profit: ¥244 million; interim net income attributable to owners of the parent: ¥176 million; interim earnings per share: ¥12.89 (second quarter of the fiscal year ended February 2026)
