The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.In the Fashion business, demand for summer products and customer traffic declined due to unsettled weather and lower temperatures. In the Bridal business, the number of ceremonies held decreased following weak bookings in the previous fiscal year. Higher costs, including personnel and advertising expenses, higher procurement costs, and increases in non-operating expenses such as disaster losses also reduced profit. The revisions to the full-year forecasts reflect first-half results, revisions to the store opening and closure plans and expense plan, and higher non-operating expenses.
