Seiyu, a unit of US retail giant Wal-Mart, is reported to have reduced its group operating profit forecast to JPY400m from JPY4.6bn – and sales projection to JPY952.3bn from JPY963bn.
The new forecast came as Seiyu’s sales dipped 1.2% from the previous year on a same-store basis due to weak sales of clothing and housing-related products, Seiyu said.
Last year, Wal-Mart completed its tender offer to acquire total control of Seiyu.
