Net sales increased by 5.5% year-over-year in H1 to ¥165,746 million, but operating profit declined by 31.9% to ¥10,158 million, missing internal targets and impacted by higher costs and delayed price adjustments.
Full-year forecasts were revised downward due to H1 results, potato procurement challenges, and cost pressures, with recovery measures planned for H2.
Domestic sales and volumes grew, but profit was impacted by higher costs and a shortfall in summer sales.
Overseas sales achieved double-digit growth in local currency, but profit was pressured by continued cost issues in the UK and Indonesia.
Profit attributable to owners of parent dropped 36.2% to ¥6,788 million.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.
One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
This is genuinely one of the cleanest and fastest finance apps out there to track the market.
