Specifically, the cumulative sales in the first half reached 102.9% for all stores and 101.7% for same-store sales, and in the second half, 102.6% for all stores and 102.0% for same-store sales, all exceeding the previous year. Note that same-store comparisons are based on stores open for more than 12 months and exclude Mister Donut and Fujiya shops.\n\n### Store Count Trends\nThe number of stores at the end of February 2026 was 249, an increase of 4 stores from 245 at the same time the previous year. This reflects changes due to store openings and closures under a scrap-and-build strategy. The increase in store count is also considered to have contributed to the sales growth.","jir_financial_highlights":"Cumulative Year-over-Year Sales for All Stores: 102.8% (Year-over-Year +2.8%)\nCumulative Year-over-Year Sales for Same-Store Sales: 101.9% (Year-over-Year +1.9%)\nNumber of Stores (End of February 2026): 249 stores (Year-over-Year +4 stores)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#MaxvaluTokaiCoLtd, #MonthlySales, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Cumulative Year-over-Year Sales for All Stores: 102.8% (February 2026 Fiscal Year)\nCumulative Year-over-Year Sales for Same-Store Sales: 101.9% (February 2026 Fiscal Year)\nNumber of Stores: 249 stores (End of February 2026)","jir_meta_title":"Maxvalu Tokai Stable Growth with 102.8% Year-over-Year Monthly Sales for February 2026 Fiscal Year","jir_meta_description":"Preliminary report of Maxvalu Tokai Co., Ltd.'s February 2026 fiscal year monthly sales year-over-year.
