In the second half, the company aims to achieve its full-year plan by entering the men's business shoe market and strengthening sales of autumn/winter products.

The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

Although the effects of investment in sneakers have begun to emerge, their contribution to sales fell short of expectations. Procurement costs also rose due to the weaker yen and stronger Chinese yuan, while television commercial costs were recorded in 1Q. Store sales declined as the company reviewed its in-store promotional methods and timing.
