Reason for the revision

Net sales have been revised downward because customer traffic in some business formats is expected to fall below projections due to unfavorable weather conditions and other factors, mainly on weekends from mid-August onward. Profit has been revised upward due to the transition to a one-company structure, optimization of staffing, consolidation of procurement and logistics functions, store operations reforms through DX, expense reviews, stronger store openings in urban areas, and streamlining of management. Compensation income related to store relocations is expected to exceed the previous forecast by ¥39 million, while extraordinary losses associated with the closure of unprofitable stores and other measures are expected to be ¥90 million below the previous forecast.

Details and amount of extraordinary loss

Extraordinary losses associated with the closure of unprofitable stores and other measures. The amount is expected to be ¥90 million below the amount included in the previous forecast, and the total expected amount of extraordinary losses to be recognized is Not disclosed.

The reasons the company gives

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

During the interim period, customer traffic in some business formats is expected to fall below projections, mainly due to unfavorable weather conditions on weekends from mid-August onward, resulting in lower net sales. On the other hand, the transition to a one-company structure, optimization of staffing, consolidation of procurement and logistics functions, store reforms through DX, and expense reviews have progressed beyond expectations. In addition, extraordinary gains increased and extraordinary losses decreased, leading to upward revisions to profit.
