1. Qualitative Information on Business and Financial Results

(1) Explanation of Business Results

During the first half period (March 1, 2022 to August 31, 2022) of fiscal 2022 (the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023) despite a temporary upswing in the number of COVID-19 cases, economic activity continued to return to normal. Meanwhile, the ongoing surge in resource and energy prices as well as the sharp depreciation in the value of the yen are impacting activities throughout the corporate sector.

While consumer spending exhibited a pickup owing to the relaxation of restrictions on people's movements, which triggered an increase in opportunities to go out, the outlook remains unclear amid concerns of a cooling off in consumer sentiment as a result of the series of price hikes in the retail industry.

Under such circumstances, during fiscal 2022, the second year of the sixth medium-term management plan, YONDOSHI HOLDINGS Group, in response to the changes in the business environment, will leverage the strengths of the corporate group to the fullest extent in order to provide products and services that exceed customer expectations, with the aim of further growth. In addition, the Company is practicing sustainable management to establish a highly trusted corporate group, and is working to enhance enterprise value by strengthening internal controls, providing shareholder returns, and making medium to long-term investments linked to earnings growth.

As a result, net sales for the subject first half period amounted to ¥18,514 million (up 4.0% from the same period of the previous fiscal year), with operating income of ¥645 million (up 50.1%), ordinary income of ¥822 million (up 14.9%) and profit attributable to owners of parent to ¥513 million (up 83.2%). Operating income before the amortization of goodwill, which the Company considers to be an important management indicator, amounted to ¥893 million (down 31.7%).

Operating results by business segment were as follows.

Jewelry Business

The F.D.C. Products Group, which operates the jewelry business, recorded strong trends in 50th anniversary limited-edition products as well as fashion jewelry including earrings and bracelets. In addition, e-commerce business sales also expanded steadily on the back of the full renewal of the e- commerce site in March.

As a result, net sales in the Jewelry Business segment amounted to ¥8,306 million (up 4.7% from the same period of the previous fiscal year), with operating income of ¥370 million (up 293.9%).

Apparel Business

Retailer age Co., Ltd., operator of the everyday fashion brand PALETTE, recorded an increase in sales. Operating income trends were also firm. In addition to the opening of two new stores, these results were attributable to existing store growth on the back of efforts to strengthen product proposal capabilities.

The AS'TY Group reported an upswing in sales. Despite the negative impact in part by the weak yen and higher material costs, this upswing in sales was largely attributable to the recovery in demand and efforts to strengthen activities with mainstay business partners.

As a result, net sales in the Apparel Business segment amounted to ¥10,207 million (up 3.4% from the same period of the previous fiscal year). Operating income declined to ¥490 million (down 10.3%).

  1. Explanation of Financial Condition Assets, Liabilities and Net Assets
    Total assets as of the end of the second quarter (August 31, 2022) of the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023 amounted to ¥52,890 million, a decrease of ¥3,993 million from the end of the previous fiscal year (February 28, 2022). This decrease in total assets is largely due to the decline in investment securities of ¥3,372 million. Total liabilities amounted to ¥13,770 million, a decrease of ¥196 million from the end of the previous fiscal year. Despite the increase in short-term borrowings of ¥1,300 million, this decrease was mainly due to the downturn in deferred tax liabilities of ¥1,818 million. Total net assets as of the subject period under review came to ¥39,120 million, a decrease of ¥3,797 million from the end of the previous fiscal year. This largely reflected to decline in valuation difference on available-for-sale securities of ¥3,469 million.

Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents as of the end of the second quarter of the fiscal year under review stood at ¥2,332 million, a decrease of ¥567 million from the end of the previous fiscal year.

(Cash Flows from Operating Activities)

Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to ¥1,282 million, up ¥1,268 million from the same period of the previous fiscal year. Major cash inflows included income before income taxes and such non- cash items as depreciation.

(Cash Flows from Investing Activities)

Net cash used in investing activities came to ¥2,234 million, down ¥2,407 million from the same period of the previous fiscal year. The principal cash outflows included the purchase of investment securities as well as property, plant and equipment.

(Cash Flows from Financing Activities)

Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to ¥383 million, up ¥1,282 million from the same period of the previous fiscal year. While YONDOSHI HOLDINGS Group recorded such cash outflows as cash dividends paid, this was more than offset by cash inflows including net increase in short-term borrowings.

(3) Explanation of Consolidated Results Forecasts and Other Future Predictions

Taking into consideration the Company's consolidated results for the first half of the fiscal year under review, YONDOSHI HOLDINGS Group revised its net sales forecast for the full fiscal year previously announced on April 14, 2022. Meanwhile, trends in each level of profit are projected to come in in line with plans owing to the increase in profit in the Jewelry Business in the peak Christmas period and successful efforts to reduce overhead expenses.
