Overview of Results
This document is the consolidated interim financial summary for the FY2027 February period. Revenue centered on the department store and SC businesses was flat to slightly down, while increases in selling, general and administrative expenses led to declines in operating and segment profit. Although there was a post-EXPO (Osaka/Kansai Expo) sales reaction and continued impact from the refurbishment of Daimaru Umeda store, the Group is advancing measures aligned with its medium-term plan "Value Co-creation Retailer," such as initiatives targeting affluent customers and creation of new customer touchpoints. The financial position shows a policy of restraining cash outflows while continuing share buybacks.
Outlook and Strategy
The interim performance revision impacted the full-year forecast, but renewal investments for department stores and SCs and openings like HAERA will continue to enhance area value. The payment and financial businesses are expected to contribute more due to expanded merchant fees, and efforts to strengthen services for affluent customers and inbound demand will expand the customer base. As the finalization of the medium-term plan, the Group will promote reinforcement of its management foundation and appropriate implementation of capital policy.
