Items this document does not state (11)
These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.
The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The department store business reported higher revenue and operating profit, reflecting the benefits of renovations at Hankyu Umeda Main Store and Hanshin Umeda Main Store, demand for high-end products, and growth in domestic and inbound sales. Quarterly net profit increased due to higher operating profit and gains on the sale of investment securities. The food business reported lower revenue due to a decline in customer numbers and a reversal from the prior year's special demand for rice, while lower profit in the other businesses was attributable in part to a decline in dividend income from subsidiaries.
