< COMMENTS >

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

In May 2018, same-store and total-store sales decreased by 9.2% and 9.0%, respectively from the same month in previous year (LY). Factors behind the percent changes were as follows. 1) One less weekend days and holidays compared to LY. 2) Decreased tire selling in reaction to LY's strong sales inspired by the price increase in June. 3) Decreased sales in statutory inspection and maintenance services both in number and sales amount as a result of fewer cars subject to statutory inspections than LY. 4) Increased car sales to individual customers although sales to business customers decreased.

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

In April 2018, both same-store and total-store sales decreased by 0.2% from the same month in previous year (LY). Factors behind the percent changes were as follows. 1) Decreased tire selling affected by tire switchback demand (snow tires into normal tires) that occurred earlier than LY while sales of Car Electronic devices have been keeping its growth trend. 2) Decreased sales in statutory inspection and maintenance services both in number and sales amount as a result of fewer cars subject to statutory inspections than LY. 3) Decrease in sales at car purchase and sales business despite the number of car purchasing via the Car Purchase Specialty stores has been increasing.
