However, the group is predicting that its net profit will stand at JPY6.7bn at the end of 2011, down from the JPY12.72bn recorded for 2010, thanks to one-off charges.
Yamazaki made its forecasts for 2011 as it reported its 2010 financial figures. Revenue was up 4.8% to JPY928.24bn in 2010 despite challenging economic conditions, including lower domestic consumer spending and the appreciation of the yen affecting exports.
Operating profit rose 18.7% to JPY26.99bn, while net profit climbed 47.2% to JPY12.72bn.
