Summary of Business Performance
For the cumulative third quarter period of the fiscal year ending February 2026, net sales decreased 11.2% YoY to ¥8,050.937 billion. However, operating income increased 3.1% to ¥325.073 billion, and quarterly net income attributable to owners of parent soared 311.9% to ¥198.461 billion. This significant profit increase was supported by special gains from the sale of Ito-Yokado store assets and the deconsolidation of subsidiaries. The domestic convenience store business maintained steady performance with net sales of ¥691.476 billion (100.6% YoY) and operating income of ¥178.53 billion (97.6% YoY). The overseas convenience store business recorded net sales of ¥6,413.123 billion (92.0% YoY) and operating income of ¥152.994 billion (97.5% YoY). The superstore business saw net sales decline to ¥68.948 billion (64.7% YoY) due to changes in consolidation scope, but operating income surged to ¥17.584 billion (852.4% YoY).
Financial Position and Cash Flow Status
Total assets decreased by ¥2,472.129 billion from the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year to ¥8,913.981 billion, liabilities decreased by ¥1,778.138 billion to ¥5,384.76 billion, and net assets decreased by ¥693.991 billion to ¥3,529.221 billion. These changes mainly reflect the deconsolidation of Seven Bank and subsidiaries under York HD, as well as treasury stock acquisitions. Cash flow from operating activities provided ¥519.357 billion; investing activities used ¥426.086 billion; and financing activities used ¥762.412 billion. The cash and cash equivalents balance at the end of the period was ¥666.629 billion.
Revision of Consolidated Earnings Guidance
The consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending February 2026 was revised upward for net income attributable to owners of parent to ¥270.0 billion (56.0% increase YoY), an increase of ¥0.5 billion from the previous forecast. Net sales are maintained at ¥10,560 billion, operating income at ¥404.0 billion, and ordinary income at ¥366.0 billion. These figures reflect the impact of treasury stock acquisition and cancellation.
Significant Changes in Consolidation Scope and Business Separation
In June 2025, Seven Bank and its nine subsidiaries were excluded from the consolidation scope and reclassified as equity method affiliates. On September 1, 2025, 29 consolidated subsidiaries related to York HD's food supermarket and specialty store/other businesses were segmented through absorption-type company split and transferred to a Bain Capital Group subsidiary, becoming equity method affiliates. These changes have caused significant fluctuations in the net sales and operating income of the superstore and other businesses.
Status of Treasury Stock Acquisition
Based on the Board of Directors resolution on April 9, 2025, Seven & i Holdings has been acquiring treasury stock from April 10, 2025 to February 28, 2026, with a maximum of 400 million shares and a total amount of up to ¥600 billion.
