Same-store sales increased 2.0% year-over-year and total-store sales rose 5.5%, maintaining strong momentum. Monthly sales surpassed the September result, continuing the performance of achieving record-high monthly sales for 46 consecutive months since January 2023. Regarding store openings, Tokushima Kawauchi store and Komaki store were newly opened.\n\n### Outlook and Key Considerations\nMonthly figures are preliminary and may be revised at the next update. Given that October sales reached a record high, attention should be paid to the sustainability of sales growth in the second half of the fiscal year. How the impact of store expansion and recovery from the online suspension will be reflected in future results will be a key point.","jir_financial_highlights":"Monthly Sales Overview (Year-over-Year): Total stores +5.5%, Same stores +2.0% (Year-over-Year +5.5%)\nCumulative (Year-over-Year): Total stores 110.0%, Same stores 107.4% (Cumulative Year-over-Year)\nOctober Sales: Exceeded previous September record (Record High Updated)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#KaitoriOkoku, #MonthlySalesOverview","jir_key_figures":"Monthly Overview: Total stores Year-over-Year +5.5%, Same stores Year-over-Year +2.0%\nCumulative: Total stores 110.0%, Same stores 107.4%\nStore Openings: Tokushima Kawauchi store, opened October 23; Komaki store, opened October 23","jir_meta_title":"Kaitori Okoku Co., Ltd.
