TOKYO<\/span><\/span>, March 24, 2023<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Yoshitsu Co., Ltd (“Yoshitsu” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: TKLF), a retailer and wholesaler of Japanese beauty and health products, as well as sundry products and other products in Japan<\/span>, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first six months of fiscal year 2023 ended September 30, 2022<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Mr. Mei Kanayama<\/span>, Principal Executive Officer of Yoshitsu, commented, “During the first six months of fiscal year 2023, our online sales revenue generated from the Chinese market was significantly impacted by the resurgence of COVID-19. To navigate the challenging conditions we faced, we actively shifted our business strategy to focus on selling our products in domestic franchise stores and through wholesale customers, which partially offset the decrease in online store sales. We anticipate revenue growth over the second half of fiscal year 2023, as recent revenue headwinds seem to be dissipating and we remain focused on executing our strategic initiatives. With the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and the resumption of business activities globally, we plan to expand our global footprint in Europe<\/span> and America. We intend to operate online stores in these regions and our recently rented new warehouses in the U.S. and U.K. lay a foundation for our business expansion efforts. In addition, we are exploring the advertising business of key opinion leaders (“KOLs”) through our recently acquired Shenzhen Qingzhiliangpin Network Technology Co., Ltd., to capture the rapid growth of the live streaming e-commerce market. Besides the business expansion in the global market, we strive to diversify our products offering and we launched locally-made food products in our stores in Japan<\/span> last year, initiating the food product segment. We expect to launch more food products through our multiple distribution channels in the near future. We believe our strategic plan will increase our profitability, enhance our brand awareness in the global market and create significant value for shareholders in the long run.”<\/p>\n

Mr. Youichiro Haga, Principal Accounting and Financial Officer of Yoshitsu, stated, “Despite the impacts of COVID-19 restriction in China<\/span> and depreciation of the Japanese yen, the increase in our revenue generated from the domestic market during the first six months of 2023 demonstrates the success of our business strategy of focusing on domestic market. We are also pleased to see increased revenue from our directly-operated stores in Hong Kong<\/span>, which we believe signifies the recognition of our brand. Looking forward, we will continue providing high-quality products and navigating our business strategy in today’s challenging market by leveraging our strong capabilities. We believe we are on track to achieve long-term sustainable growth in both domestic and global expansion markets.”<\/p>\n

Recent Development<\/b><\/p>\n

Acquisition of Tokyo Lifestyle Limited<\/i><\/p>\n

On July 20, 2022<\/span>, the Company entered into a definitive agreement (the “Agreement”) with All Seas Global Limited (the “Seller”). Mr. Mei Kanayama<\/span>, the representative director of the Company, held 100% of the equity interests in the Seller, and hence, the Seller and the Company were related parties under common control. Tokyo Lifestyle Limited (“TLS”) is a company principally engaged in the import and retail of Japanese beauty and cosmetic products in Hong Kong<\/span> and engaged in the live e-commerce business through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Shenzhen Qingzhiliangpin Network Technology Co., Ltd. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company agreed to acquire 100% of the equity interests in TLS in consideration of the sum of \u00a5392,673,800 in cash (US$2,842,173)<\/span>, subject to certain terms. The transaction contemplated by the Agreement was approved by the Company’s board of directors at a special board meeting on June 27, 2022<\/span>. The 100% of the equity interests in TLS were transferred to the Company on July 20, 2022<\/span>, and cash consideration was paid in full and the transaction was closed on July 27, 2022<\/span>. This acquisition is a critical initiative of the Company’s business strategy to boost its business expansion in the Southeast Asia<\/span> market and advance the digital transformation of live streaming e-commerce in its retail business. This transaction was accounted for as an acquisition of a business under common control, accordingly, the Company’s comparative financial information prior to the acquisition date of July 20, 2022<\/span> was retrospectively adjusted to include the financial results of TLS.<\/p>\n

First Six Months of Fiscal Year 2023 Financial Results<\/b><\/p>\n

Revenue<\/i><\/p>\n

Revenue decreased by $36.2 million<\/span>, or 31.8%, to $77.6 million<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span> from $113.8 million<\/span> for the same period of last year. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to decreased revenue from online stores and others and directly-operated physical stores, which was partially offset by increased revenue from franchise stores and wholesale customers.<\/p>\n

Revenue from directly-operated physical stores decreased by $0.2 million<\/span>, or 3.3%, to $5.8 million<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, from $6.0 million<\/span> for the same period of last year. Our revenue generated from our directly-operated physical stores in Japan<\/span> (excluding the impact of foreign currency translation) remained relatively stable with a slight increase by 3.1% for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span> as compared to the same period of last year. However, due to the depreciation of the Japanese yen against U.S. dollars, the average translation rate for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span> and 2021 was at \u00a51=US$0.007480<\/span> and \u00a51=US$0.009110<\/span>, respectively, a significant decrease of 17.9%. As a result, revenue generated from our directly-operated physical stores in Japan<\/span> decreased by $0.8 million<\/span>, or 15.4%, to $4.4 million<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, from $5.2 million<\/span> for the same period of last year. The decrease was partially offset by the increased revenue generated from our directly-operated physical stores in Hong Kong<\/span>. During the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, revenue generated from our directly-operated physical stores in Hong Kong<\/span> increased by $0.6 million<\/span>, or 75.0%, to $1.4 million<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, from $0.8 million<\/span> for the same period of last year. The increase was due to revenue contributed from our newly-opened stores during the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Revenue from online stores and others decreased by $40.4 million<\/span>, or 64.7%, to $22.0 million<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, from $62.4 million<\/span> for the same period of last year. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in online sales revenue generated from China<\/span> during the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>. Due to a resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic in late March 2022<\/span> in China<\/span>, which resulted in shipping container shortages and stricter border control protocols, shipments and customs clearance for overseas imports were delayed. Our online sales in China<\/span> were significantly constrained, due to the inability to deliver the products to our customers as a consequence of mobility restrictions and lockdowns imposed in certain provinces across China<\/span>. Although the situation has eased since June 2022<\/span>, due to the continuous impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, our online sales volume in China<\/span> did not return to its normal level as compared to the same period of last year. The decrease was exacerbated by the significant depreciation of the Japanese yen against U.S. dollars, as mentioned above. The decrease was partially offset by the increased revenue from KOLs due to the rapid growth of live streaming e-commerce market. Our revenue from KOLs increased by $0.9 million<\/span>, or 941.1%, to $1.0 million<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, from $0.1 million<\/span> for the same period of last year.<\/p>\n

Revenue from franchise stores and wholesale customers increased by $4.4 million<\/span>, or 9.7%, to $49.8 million<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, from $45.4 million<\/span> for the same period of last year. The increase was mainly due to increased revenue from domestic franchise stores and wholesale customers. Our revenue generated from domestic franchise stores and wholesale customers (excluding the impact of foreign currency translation) increased significantly by 4,989.8% for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span> as compared to the same period of last year. The increase was due to a shift in our business strategy when our overseas sales were significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. With the high demand for the Company’s products, the Company managed to modify its business strategy by developing and selling its products in the domestic market to either domestic customers or overseas customers who made purchases in Japan<\/span> and bore the overseas shipment cost by themselves. The increase was partially offset by the significant depreciation of the Japanese yen against U.S. dollars, as mentioned above, as well as the decreased revenue generated from overseas franchise stores and wholesale customers. The Company’s overseas shipments were delayed or limited due to the shipping container shortages caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and increased shipping charges, as well as fewer orders it received from its overseas franchise stores and wholesale customers when their business was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, revenue generated from overseas franchise stores and wholesale customers decreased for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span> as compared to the same period of last year.<\/p>\n

Gross Profit and Gross Margin<\/i><\/p>\n

Total cost of revenue decreased by $31.2 million<\/span>, or 33.1%, to $63.0 million<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, from $94.2 million<\/span> for the same period of last year.<\/p>\n

Gross profit decreased by $5.0 million<\/span>, or 25.5%, to $14.6 million<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, from $19.6 million<\/span> for the same period of last year. Overall gross margin increased by 1.6 percentage points to 18.8% for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, from 17.2% for the same period of last year.<\/p>\n

Gross margin for directly-operated physical stores, online stores and others, and franchise stores and wholesale customers were 19.0%, 18.6%, and 18.9%, respectively, for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, compared to 16.7%, 16.7%, and 18.1%, respectively, for the same period of last year.<\/p>\n

Operating Expenses<\/i><\/p>\n

Operating expenses consist of selling and marketing expenses and general and administrative expenses, which primarily include payroll, employee benefit expenses and bonus expenses, shipping expenses, promotion and advertising expenses, and other facility-related costs, such as store rent, utilities, and depreciation.<\/p>\n

Operating expenses decreased by $1.8 million<\/span>, or 11.8%, to $13.5 million<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, from $15.3 million<\/span> for the same period of last year. Our operating expenses (excluding the impact of foreign currency translation) increased for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span> as compared to the same period of last year, mainly due to increased payroll, and employee benefit expenses and bonus expenses, and consulting and professional service fees, which was partially offset by the decrease in shipping expenses and transaction commissions paid to third-party e-commerce marketplace operators. However, with the significant depreciation of the Japanese yen against U.S. dollars as mentioned above, our operating expenses in U.S. dollars decreased for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span> as compared to the same period of last year.<\/p>\n

Interest Expense, Net<\/i><\/p>\n

Interest expense, net includes interest expense calculated at interest rate per loan agreements and loan service costs, which are directly incremental to the loan agreements and amortized over the loan periods. Interest expense, net increased by $0.3 million<\/span>, or 27.3%, to $1.4 million<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, from $1.1 million<\/span> for the same period of last year. The increase was primarily due to the increased weighted average loan balance for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Gain (Loss) from Foreign Currency Exchange<\/i><\/p>\n

Gain from foreign currency exchange was $981,017<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span> as compared to a loss from foreign currency exchange of $107,541<\/span> for the same period of last year. The increase in the gain from foreign currency exchange was due to the significant fluctuations in foreign exchange rates during the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Other Income (Expenses), net<\/i><\/p>\n

Other income (expenses), net primarily includes tax refunds, disposal gain or loss from property and equipment, government subsidies, and other immaterial income and expense items. Other net expenses increased by $587,747<\/span>, or 123.9%, to other net expenses of $113,409<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, from other net income of $474,338<\/span> for the same period of last year. The increase was mainly due to an increase in loss from the disposal of property and equipment as well as the decreased government subsidies received during the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Provision for Income Taxes<\/i><\/p>\n

Provision for income taxes decreased by $1.4 million<\/span>, or 87.5%, to $0.2 million<\/span> for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>, from $1.6 million<\/span> for the same period of last year. The decrease in the provision for income taxes was mainly due to the decreased taxable income for the six months ended September 30, 2022<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Net Income<\/i><\/p>\n
