progress exceeding the company forecast.","jir_summary":"### Summary of Results\nConsolidated operating income for the cumulative Q3 of the fiscal year ending March 2026 declined year-over-year, but showed progress exceeding the company forecast. The department store business saw declines in sales and profit due to a correction following last year's sharp increase in inbound sales and a reduction in sales floor space due to renovation work at the Hankyu main store. Meanwhile, existing store sales at the food supermarkets were steady, achieving increases in both sales and profits. Overall, the food and commercial facility businesses remained firm, and recording gains on sale of policy-held shares significantly increased net income attributable to owners of parent.\n\n### Earnings Guidance and Dividend Plan\nAlthough consolidated operating income for the cumulative Q3 surpassed the company forecast, considering the trends of visitors from China and the impact of the Hankyu main store renovation, the full-year consolidated earnings forecast remains unchanged. The annual dividend is planned at 44 yen, an increase of 2 yen from the previous year as initially announced. Sales are expected at 1,163.0 billion yen (YoY +0%), operating income at 30.0 billion yen (YoY \u25b214%), and net income attributable to owners of parent at 24.0 billion yen (YoY \u25b231%).","jir_financial_highlights":"Gross Sales: 872.8 billion yen (\u25b20%, \u25b21.1 billion yen)\nOperating Income: 25.3 billion yen (\u25b213%, \u25b23.6 billion yen)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 29.0 billion yen (\u25b223%, \u25b28.5 billion yen)\nAnnual Dividend: 44 yen (2 yen increase from previous year)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#H2ORetailing, #FinancialPresentationMaterials, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Consolidated Operating Income (cumulative 3Q): 25.3 billion yen (YoY \u25b213%)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent (cumulative 3Q): 29.0 billion yen (YoY \u25b223%)\nAnnual Dividend: 44 yen (2 yen increase from previous year)","jir_meta_title":"H2O Retailing Fiscal Year Ending March 2026 Q3 Financial Results Operating Income 25.3 Billion Yen, Net Income 29.0 Billion Yen","jir_meta_description":"Financial presentation materials for H2O Retailing Corporation for the fiscal year ending March 2026 Q3.
