Summary of Forecast Revision
This IR announces a downward revision to the full-year consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending February 2027. Net sales are expected to fall short of the plan due to insufficient customer traffic and items purchased per customer. Gross profit margin is expected to remain at the prior-year level due to integration of purchasing and an increased proportion of delicatessen products, but will fall short of the plan due to rising costs and intensified competition. SG&A expenses are expected to be reduced, but not enough to offset the decline in operating income, resulting in performance below the annual plan. Special losses are expected to be recorded for store impairments, store closure losses, and asset retirement losses, and a net loss of 8,000 million yen is anticipated for the period.
Outlook and Impact
With the deterioration in performance, measures aimed at medium- to long-term structural reforms will be necessary. Store redeployment and asset reviews are planned, and the recognition of special losses is expected. While promoting sales promotions and cost reductions, initiatives to restore profitability are required.
