The nine-month financial results for the nine months until December last year, announced by a major consumer electronics retailer by the 4th, are due to the increase in sales of home appliances due to the so-called "nesting demand" of products used at home. Operating income, which indicates profits, increased significantly.
According to this, the operating income of each company's group as a whole
was 74.4 billion yen, which
is about
twice that of the same period of the previous year for the largest Yamada Holdings
, and 23 billion yen for EDION, which is about 2.2 times.
In addition,
▽ K's Holdings increased by 74% to 45.5 billion yen
▽ Nojima increased by 40% to 24.4 billion yen,
both companies recorded record profits for this period.
Along with the spread of the new coronavirus infection, the so-called “needing demand” for products used at home increased, and sales of TVs, air purifiers, air conditioners, etc. increased.
EDION and K's Holdings have also revised their operating income forecasts upward for the year ending March.
