The International Food Business surpassed the high level of growth recorded a year earlier.

Each domestic business was affected by the absence of the at-home consumption seen a year earlier and the protraction of the COVID-19 crisis.

We recorded a decrease in operating income in the first half for the first time since FY2014, largely due to a year-on-year decline in the Spice/Seasoning/Processed Food Business, despite a boost to profit after goodwill was fully amortized in the Restaurant Business.

Profit attributable to owners of the parent rose sharply, reflecting the sale of investment securities, in addition to decreases in impairment losses and a share of loss of entities accounted for using the equity method recorded the previous year. We used the gain on sale to finance the purchase of treasury shares of 4 billion yen (acquisition period: May 12 - Oct. 15)

Spice / Seasoning / Processed Food Business

Health Food Business

International Food Business

Restaurant Business

  • Sales were affected by the absence of special demand arising from at-home consumption the previous fiscal year. Sales of curry roux products returned to previous levels.
  • Preparations were made for achievement of the medium-term business plan on the assumption of changing needs and the growing tendency for people to eat out or buy food to eat at home.
  • Sales of the Ukon no Chikara series continued to struggle due to fewer opportunities to drink out.
  • The segment posted a first-half operating loss, largely due to decreased sales, which offset cost improvements resulting from withdrawal from unprofitable business.
  • United States: Productivity improved thanks to stable operations at the LA Plant. Raw materials and packaging costs rose from the second quarter.
  • China: Sales of products for food service use grew sharply, reflecting the opening up of new markets such as the delivery market. Sales of products for household use reflect the absence of demand seen the previous fiscal.
  • Thailand: Deliveries in the traditional market were encouraged partly due to government measures to stimulate consumption. Both sales and profits increased, partly due to a lighter tax burden.
  • Sales in Japan fell, with restaurants called upon to shorten their operating hours for long periods of time. Overseas, sales recovered from the dramatic slump of the previous year.
  • Profit was boosted (approx. 1.8 billion yen) by the fact that, the previous fiscal year, impairment losses were recorded and goodwill was fully amortized.
