<Remarks>
1. The above data is based on sales (retail price basis) at the group's own retail stores and e-commerce sales channels in Japan, which is available to be aggregated on a monthly basis.
2. Sales of the Existing Retail Channels are calculated pursuant to sales at stores that were open for at least twenty days during the same months of the previous year and this year.
3. Monthly Retail Sales (YoY) are calculated on a retail price basis. Hence, there is no impact from the change in revenue recognition standards.
4. The figures for the latest month are preliminary and subject to revision. They will be considered final upon publication of the Monthly Sales Report for the following month. Any revised figures are underlined for clarity.
5. If there is a significant variance between preliminary and finalized figures, we will release the corrected information immediately.
