To address diverse memorial service needs, including simplification and lower pricing, the company will expand its product lineup and seek to improve its closing rate, increase the number of sales and roll out sales promotion measures, while working to control company-wide selling, general and administrative expenses and improve the efficiency of its store operations. However, as first-half results fell significantly below plan, the company determined that it would be difficult to offset the impact.

The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Simplification and lower pricing in response to changes in consumers’ lifestyles and views on memorial services progressed faster than expected, and the number of store visitors also declined, causing first-half revenue and profit to fall below plan. Although measures for the second half are being implemented, the company believes it will be difficult to make up for the first-half shortfall.
