CEO MESSAGE
｜IR

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to our shareholders for their continued support.

Our group has established our medium- to long-term vision outlining the goals to be achieved by FY2029, the 90th anniversary of our founding. As the first year of this initiative, we have focused our efforts in FY2025 on “Strengthening earning power by pursuing uniqueness” and “Business portfolio transformation.” In terms of business performance, while the Solutions Business drove growth, our core Mail-order Business struggled to secure orders, particularly in the apparel sector. Additionally, due to factors such as the recognition of an impairment loss on goodwill and extraordinary losses related to the withdrawal from unprofitable operations in the E-commerce Business, the consolidated results showed an increase in revenue but a decrease in profit.

Going forward, we will continue to firmly establish our two core revenue streams—the Solutions Business and the Mail-order Business—and drive the transformation of our business portfolio to achieve both revenue stability and growth through their synergies.

Furthermore, as part of our new corporate identity aimed at maximizing long-term profits, we have redefined our Group’s target state as “Solutions for All ‘Aspirations’, Direct Solution Company.” This redefinition not only more clearly articulates our unique identity but also serves as a commitment to all our stakeholders. We further evolve into a corporate group that fulfills the individual “Aspirations” of every person—in business, daily life, and society—through the most direct paths.

We would like to ask all our shareholders for their continued understanding and support.
