Overview of results
For the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2027, the department store business led the overall results. The renovation at Hankyu Department Store and strong demand for high-end items contributed to net sales exceeding the previous year and operating income progressing above company expectations. By segment, department stores were the main growth driver. Food, commercial facilities, and others remained steady with various influencing factors. The full-year forecast remains unchanged.
Outlook and risks
The business environment remains uncertain, with potential downside factors such as Middle East tensions, duty-free transition at airports, and pre-consumption tax cuts potentially leading to cautious spending. Accordingly, the full-year earnings guidance and the annual dividend forecast will be preserved as initially planned. Continued demand for high-end goods at department stores and inbound demand movements will be key determinants of performance.
