Sales Comment:

May 2020 same-store sales including online sales decreased by 18.1% year on year while total sales including online sales decreased by 19.7%.

Same-store sales declined by a considerable 18.1% year on year in May as approximately 20% of our stores were closed temporarily on average across the month and we were unable to conduct our regular sales promotions for Japan's annual Golden Week holiday and UNIQLO anniversaries. However, sales of Summer ranges proved strong and our stores that were open for business experienced many days when sales exceeded the previous year's levels. In addition, e-commerce sales continued strong in May, rising considerably year on year.

Other information:

A maximum of 311 stores were temporarily closed in May due to the impact of COVID-19 and 354 stores operated reduced opening hours.
Following the lifting of the state of emergency in Japan, the number of temporarily closed stores declined to 46 at the end of May.
The monthly data were calculated without excluding stores that were either open for fewer hours or temporarily closed from the total number of same stores or own stores.
