Summary of Recent Financial Results
◆Retail units sold
In the first half of the fiscal year under review (March 1 to August 31, 2025), retail unit sales at directly managed stores in Japan were 84,190 (up 10.9% year on year), a record high for first half sales. This is mainly owed to the commencement of operation of large stores opened in the previous fiscal year and robust retail unit sales at existing large stores. Gross profit per retail unit decreased year-on-year due to the impact of remaining inventory with high purchasing costs, which was a result of the rapid decline in auto auction market prices.
◆Selling, general, and administrative expenses
Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses rose year-on-year, reflecting higher rent expenses on land and buildings from new large store openings and increased provisions for growing sales in new businesses, which outweighed savings from more efficient advertising and promotion.
◆Consolidated results
Consolidated business results for the first six months under review were net sales of 273,107 million yen (up 9.4% year on year), operating profit of 8,493 million yen (down 15.8%), ordinary profit of 7,755million yen (down 19.3%), and profit attributable to owners of parent of 5,163million yen (down 20.4%).
