Explanation of operating results
During the six months ended September 30, 2021, while the Japanese economy saw some signs of recovery from the spread of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), the economic outlook still remains uncertain. Under such conditions, HARD OFF CORPORATION Co., Ltd. (the "Company") has been pushing ahead with the enhancement of human resource development and expansion of its procurement channel while setting "Work in Real-Time: Back to the Basics, Have Fun and Smile" as the annual theme. By carrying out initiatives such as establishing the Pickup Buying Center for the Metropolitan Area and promoting procurement activities at temporary locations for a limited period of time in areas without permanent stores, the Company aims to enhance its procurement capability, which is a key factor for the Secondhand Business.
With respect to the opening of secondhand stores during the six months ended September 30, 2021, the Company opened nine directly operated stores, closed two directly operated stores, opened two franchised stores, and closed three franchised stores. As a result, the total number of secondhand stores was 919, which was comprised of 396 directly operated stores and 523 franchised stores.
The number of stores by business category as of September 30, 2021 is shown in the following table.
