First-quarter growth sets the tone

For the quarter ended August 20, 2026, net sales increased 13.80 percent year over year to JPY 159.04 billion. Operating income rose 16.00 percent to JPY 8.42 billion, while net income attributable to owners of the parent advanced 36.40 percent to JPY 6.87 billion, according to Japan IR.

The company also kept its full-year fiscal 2027 forecast at JPY 640.00 billion of sales and JPY 32.00 billion of operating income. The first-quarter figures therefore show faster profit growth than the full-year operating-income plan, although the quarterly period remains only one part of the fiscal year.

What do the latest sales figures show?

The September 2026 monthly report added a more current operating signal. All-store sales reached 112.80 percent of the prior-year level, while existing-store sales reached 102.40 percent for the month ended September 20, 2026, MarketScreener reported on October 1, 2026. That combination points to continued network growth alongside positive same-store performance.
