Ministop Quarterly Losses Swell to 2.31 Billion Yen

Revenue figures offered the only upward trajectory, climbing to 24.91 billion yen from 23.72 billion yen a year ago. Despite this modest top-line growth, the company’s core profitability collapsed, with operating profit swinging to a loss of 2.02 billion yen compared to a break-even result in 2025. Pretax profit followed a similar downward trend, sinking to a loss of 1.90 billion yen from a previous gain of 116 million yen. On a per-share basis, the company reported a loss of 79.58 yen, a substantial increase over the prior year's 5.21 yen loss. These results reflect performance under Japanese accounting standards.
