Reason for the revision

Selling, general and administrative expenses improved from the initial assumptions and remained at improved levels as a result of optimizing staffing and working-hour management at stores, improving store operations, and controlling various expenses. Based on first-quarter results and current conditions, interim-period profit has been revised upward, while second-half operating income has been left unchanged from the previous forecast. In addition, as progress in discussions and coordination aimed at optimizing the company’s locations has increased the likelihood of extraordinary income and extraordinary losses arising during the interim period, these items have been incorporated based on reasonable estimates.

The reasons the company gives

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

Selling, general and administrative expenses improved from the initial assumptions as a result of optimizing staffing and working-hour management at stores, improving store operations, and controlling various expenses. In addition, the possibility of extraordinary income and extraordinary losses arising in connection with progress in discussions and coordination aimed at optimizing the company’s locations has been incorporated into the earnings forecast. Meanwhile, second-half operating income has been left unchanged from the previous forecast in light of uncertain factors including rising raw material prices and labor costs and consumers’ increasing preference for saving.
