The company attributed the downward revision to overstocking of summer products, which negatively impacted autumn sales and led to underperformance in October. While recovery efforts were made in November, the results still fell short of the initial forecast.
The revision highlights challenges in seasonal product management, which could affect short-term profitability. However, the full-year outlook remains unchanged, reflecting confidence in long-term strategies such as the “Yamato 2026” vision and potential recovery in spring product sales.
