On the other hand, ordinary income fell short of expectations and amounted to 6 million yen. Net income attributable to owners of parent exceeded the forecast at 0.90 yen per share, leading to a revision of the initial earnings forecast.\n\n### Outlook and Key Points\nWhile the factors driving sales growth are expected to continue, there is a risk of impact from ongoing ordinary expenses and specific costs. One-off factors, such as the recording of relocation compensation, have also boosted net income. Future store operations and cost control will be key to performance.","jir_financial_highlights":"Net Sales: 14,546 (Previous forecast 14,000 -> Actual 14,546 Change +546)\nOperating Income: 78 (Previous forecast 40 -> Actual 78 Change +38)\nOrdinary Income: 6 (Previous forecast 35 -> Actual 6 Decrease -29)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 0.90 (Previous forecast 20 -> Actual 41 Change +21)\nNet Income per Share: 0.90 (Previous forecast 0.42 -> Actual 0.90 Change +0.48)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#BunkyodoGroupHoldings, #EarningsVariance, #ConsolidatedResults","jir_key_figures":"Net Sales: 14,546 million yen\nOperating Income: 78 million yen\nOrdinary Income: 6 million yen\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 0.90 yen\nComparison with Previous Forecast: Net Sales +546 million yen, Operating Income +38 million yen, Ordinary Income -29 million yen, Net Income +21 million yen","jir_meta_title":"Bunkyodo Group Holdings Co., Ltd. \u2013 Differences Between Consolidated Forecast and Results for FY Aug 2026 | Net Sales Up, Ordinary Income Down","jir_meta_description":"Bunkyodo Group Holdings Co., Ltd. announces differences between its consolidated earnings forecast and actual results for the fiscal year ended August 2026.
