Results at a glance

  • Revenue for the FY ending Mar 2026 was ¥842.5B, up +5.1% from ¥801.8B.
  • Gross profit grew faster at +5.9%, but higher SG&A kept operating income growth to +5.2%, at ¥46.8B.
  • Net income rose only +2.1% to ¥31.4B.
  • Free cash flow climbed from ¥6.9B to ¥12.2B.

What drove the change

  • In drugstores, prescriptions and online sales stayed strong, stockpiled government rice sold well, and remodeled stores helped. Cold medicine and other seasonal items fell after a strong prior-year comparison.
  • In discount stores, food sales held up as market prices rose, while a warm winter hurt seasonal appliance sales.
  • Better purchasing terms lifted gross margin in both businesses. SG&A rose partly because of a temporary jump in depreciation from heavy investment.

Things to watch

  • Rivals and other retail formats keep opening stores and consolidating, which could cut customer traffic and spending per visit.
  • Dispensing fees and drug prices are set by the government, so revisions can hit earnings.
  • Hiring pharmacists and registered sellers is highly competitive; shortfalls could slow store openings and push up labor costs.
