The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Customer numbers and items purchased per customer declined due to a pullback from the high comparison base of the previous year and intensifying price competition with competitors, causing sales to fall below the original plan. In addition, higher purchase prices for products such as packaging materials, rising energy costs including electricity charges, and higher employee wages reduced the gross profit margin and increased selling, general and administrative expenses.
