Reason for the revision

In the domestic business, the core imported brands performed steadily, supported by an aggressive store-opening policy and other measures. In the overseas business, the final sale in South Korea performed strongly, and customer traffic at department stores increased from April onward, particularly among affluent domestic consumers and inbound visitors, resulting in steady performance by existing brands. The retail business in Italy also grew significantly by capturing tourist demand. While higher net sales increased gross profit, some costs associated with the head office relocation were incurred. For the full year, the revisions reflect interim-period results exceeding the forecast, while forecast net income attributable to owners of the parent was unchanged due to the recognition of costs associated with the head office relocation and other factors.

The reasons the company gives

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

For the interim period, net sales exceeded the forecast because the company’s core imported brands performed steadily in Japan, the final sale in South Korea and increased customer traffic at department stores, and the company captured tourist demand in Italy. Profit forecasts were revised in light of the increase in gross profit resulting from higher net sales, as well as the incurrence of some costs related to the head office relocation. For the full year, the revisions reflect interim-period results exceeding the forecast, while forecast net income attributable to owners of the parent was unchanged due to the recognition of costs associated with the head office relocation and other factors.
