The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.For the fiscal year ended February 2026, performance benefited from selling rice at affordable prices, offering value-for-money prices in response to inflation and consumers' preference for thrift, strengthening local products and prepared foods, standardizing distribution practices, implementing category management, sharing operating practices, and controlling selling, general and administrative expenses. For the fiscal year ending February 2027, the company plans to open and renovate stores, take measures against competing stores, promote new value-for-money pricing, expand its range of limited-edition and local products, improve productivity, and allocate management resources to underperforming operating companies.
