FY August 2026 Financial Summary (Consolidated)

Performance Overview

Key drivers included expansion of direct overseas sales channels for the "Hobonichi Techo" and related items, strengthened digital integration, and improved inventory management that reduced disposals and valuation losses. As this is the first consolidated year, year-over-year comparisons are not possible. Growth was driven by overseas market expansion and enhanced collaborations.
