In its latest earnings report for the first three months of the fiscal year ending February 28, 2026, J.

Despite this growth, the company faced a decline in business profit by 15.4% and a decrease in profit attributable to owners of the parent by 7.4%, largely due to decreased duty-free sales in its Department Store Business. The company’s Department Store Business saw a modest 1.6% increase in sales revenue, but experienced a significant drop in business profit by 21.8%, attributed to declining duty-free sales and increased operational costs. Conversely, the SC Business and Developer Business showed robust growth, with sales revenue increasing by 4.8% and 38.0% respectively, driven by successful store renovations and increased demand in the Developer Business. Looking ahead, J. Front Retailing Co. remains committed to strengthening its retail operations and enhancing group synergies, with strategic initiatives such as the launch of new credit cards and entry into the reuse business, while also focusing on sustainability through the issuance of sustainability bonds.
