Overview of results
In the third quarter, revenue growth and profit expansion were achieved owing to stronger same-store sales and contributions from new stores. Increases in customer unit price from price revisions, improved QSCA, and longer operating hours contributed to higher customer numbers, while improved manufacturing efficiency at own plants, reduced raw material costs, and labor cost control through shift management supported the profit. Corporate expenses, overseas businesses, and store opening costs increased, but overall significantly exceeded the prior year. The full-year forecast was raised.
Outlook, store openings, and personnel
In the fourth quarter, sales are expected to grow due to continued strong same-store performance and securing openings, but energy costs from electricity and gas may affect results, so subsidies and energy-saving measures will be employed to minimize impact. Overseas expansion continues in the US, China, Switzerland, and Canada. Talent acquisition will be addressed through improved compensation to attract and retain staff, with attrition kept below the industry average.
