The company cited a strategic reduction in winter inventory for its apparel brands, along with productivity improvements and workforce reallocation, as reasons for the revenue decline. Additionally, it recorded an investment loss of JPY 27.0bn from its affiliate, Luxe Technologies, which led to a reduction in operating profit.
