(Yoy figures are on same store basis for the entire chain) In October 2017, both same-store and total-store sales decreased by 2.6% and 2.7%, respectively from the same month in previous year (LY). Factors behind the percent changes were as follows. 1) One less Saturday compared to LY; 2) Rising demand for vehicle-mounted driving recorders followed by news and reports of car accidents caused by dangerous behavior, such as speeding, tailgating, aggressive driving and so on; 3) Decreasing statutory safety inspection and maintenance services both in number and sales amount, as a result of demand curve shifting to the left that means cars subject to statutory inspections has started to decline in October; 3) Lower used car retail sales, though the number of car purchasing has increased. | ||||||||||||||||||||
