(Yoy figures are on same store basis for the entire chain)

In June 2017, same-store sales increased by 0.4% and total-store sales were flat from the same month in previous year (LY). Factors behind the percent changes are as follows. 1) Weakened sales of tires due to the price increase from this month, though other merchandise sales held steady; 2) Continuing double-digit sales growth for statutory safety inspection and maintenance services according to the increasing number of cars subject to second- and more times statutory inspection and repeating announcement efforts at stores; 3) Solid results at car purchase and sales business owing to strong new car sales and BtoB sales as a result of Group-wide efforts to enhance the number of trade-in appraisals and car purchasing.

Factors behind the percent changes are as follows. 1) Strong sales of tires due to tire switchback demand (snow tires into normal tires) as well as the increasing number of buying customers pushed up by the high statutory safety inspection demand; 2) Strong double-digit sales growth for statutory safety inspection and maintenance services according to the increasing number of cars subject to second- and more times statutory inspection and repeating announcement efforts at stores; 3) Solid results at car purchase and sales business owing to strong new car sales and B2B sales as a result of Group-wide efforts to enhance the number of trade-in appraisals and car purchasing.

In May 2017, both same- and total-store sales increased by 10.4% and 9.8%, respectively from the same month in previous year (LY).
