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.
