Supplementary Results Presentation for the Fiscal Year Ended January 2026

Net sales rose 2.3% year on year to a record high, while operating profit fell by ¥604 million due to higher procurement costs resulting from the depreciation of the yen and US dollar, rising personnel expenses, and store consolidation costs. For the fiscal year ending January 2027, the Company expects higher sales and a substantial increase in profit, assuming stronger product offerings and completion of store consolidations.
