Net margin

[Financial Overview]

  • Net sales
    Net sales increased by ¥23,807 million (12.0%) year on year with robust new store openings and continued strong product shipments to existing stores.
  • Gross profit
    Gross profit increased by ¥795 million (3.4%) year on year due to the yen being weaker and raw material prices being higher than a year ago despite the continued strong net sales.
  • SG&A expenses
    SG&A expenses increased by ¥1,395 million (15.5%) year on year due to increases in freight costs for the Gyomu Super Business and personnel and rent expenses resulting from the opening of our directly operated BBQ restaurants.
  • Operating profit
    As a result of the factors above, operating profit decreased by ¥599 million (4.1%) year on year
  • Ordinary profit
    Ordinary profit decreased by ¥3,182 million (19.4%) year on year due to the recording of a foreign exchange loss on U.S. dollar-denominated deposits and a valuation loss on forward exchange contracts resulting from the ongoing appreciation of the yen since the beginning of Q1. While the valuation loss varies depending on the exchange rates at quarter-end, we expect the loss to be reversed by the end of FY2023.
  • Profit attributable to owners of parent
    As a result of the factors above, profit attributable to owners of parent decreased by ¥1,927 million (17.5%) year on year.

Gyomu Super Business

Gyomu Super is our core business. Operating results of this business segment reflect wholesale sales to, and royalty fee from, Gyomu Super franchisees earned by Kobe Bussan, a franchisor (franchising headquarters), as well as earnings of Kobe Bussan Group's plants.

  • Gyomu Super stores have expanded nationwide with 1,023 stores as of April 30, 2023.
  • Net sales for FY2023 Q2 exceeded the planned amount.
  • We have changed specifications of private label items produced by our group's domestic plants and revised prices for national brand items to address continuously rising costs caused primarily by the soaring prices of raw materials.
