The company attributed the upward revision to robust performance in the first half of 2026, reflecting positive momentum across three strategic pillars: Menu & Value, Store Portfolio & Digital, and Sustainability & People initiatives. These focus areas are generating synergistic benefits that exceeded initial expectations. Revenue is now projected at JPY 408.0bn, up JPY 2.5bn from the prior forecast, while operating profit and ordinary income (keijo rieki)—a Japan-specific metric encompassing operating profit plus non-operating items—both increased JPY 1.0bn to JPY 55.5bn. Net profit attributable to parent company shareholders rose JPY 0.5bn to JPY 35.0bn, with earnings per share climbing to JPY 263.24/share from JPY 259.48/share.

However, management cautioned that headwinds persist. Raw material cost inflation is tracking above initial assumptions, and broader market conditions remain uncertain. These factors represent ongoing risks to the revised guidance. While the interim strength demonstrates operational resilience and the effectiveness of strategic execution, investors should monitor commodity price trends and consumer demand dynamics in the second half of the fiscal year.
