Ministop Swings to 4 Billion Yen Loss in First Half

A 4 billion yen net loss for the half-year ending August 31 marks a sharp reversal for Ministop Co. Ltd., which recorded a 502 million yen profit during the same period last year. The Japanese convenience store operator faced mounting pressure as operating losses reached 2.84 billion yen.

Revenue figures provide the only positive note in the latest financial report, climbing to 51.07 billion yen from 48.73 billion yen a year earlier. Despite this top-line growth, profitability eroded significantly under Japanese accounting standards. The company reported a pretax loss of 2.61 billion yen, a stark departure from the 1.35 billion yen profit posted in 2025. Consequently, per-share earnings plummeted to a loss of 137.73 yen, compared to a positive 17.32 yen in the previous cycle.
