\n TOKYO<\/span>, July 10, 2026<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Tokyo Lifestyle Co., Ltd. (“Tokyo Lifestyle” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: TKLF), a retailer and wholesaler of Japanese beauty and health products, sundry products, luxury products, electronic products, collectible cards, trendy toys as well as other products in Hong Kong, Japan, North America, Thailand, Vietnam, the United Kingdom and Australia, today announced its financial results for the fiscal year ended\u00a0March 31, 2026 (“fiscal year 2026”).<\/p>\n

Mr.\u00a0Mei Kanayama, Principal Executive Officer of Tokyo Lifestyle, commented: “Fiscal year 2026 was a year of strong execution across our business, resulting in robust revenue growth driven by continued expansion of our directly-operated stores, franchise network, and wholesale operations, all of which achieved double-digit growth. We believe that these results demonstrate the effectiveness of our strategy to diversify our product portfolio, broaden our customer base, and accelerate our global market expansion. Tokyo Lifestyle is evolving beyond a traditional retailer into a diversified consumer lifestyle platform with complementary retail, franchise, wholesale, and luxury goods businesses, pursuing multiple drivers for sustainable long-term growth.<\/p>\n

“As part of this transformation, we continued to advance our asset-light growth strategy by accelerating the expansion of our franchise and wholesale businesses, particularly in the high-end merchandise segment. While these businesses generally carry lower gross margins than our directly-operated retail operations, they require significantly less capital investment and operating expenses, enabling faster, more efficient scaling. Accordingly, the changes in our revenue mix should be viewed as a deliberate optimization of our business model designed to enhance long-term returns, rather than a reflection of weaker operating performance.<\/p>\n

“A key highlight was the outstanding performance of our luxury goods business, which quickly emerged as a meaningful growth driver. At the same time, continued expansion of our wholesale customer base and broader distribution network strengthened market reach, diversified our revenue streams, and enhanced the resilience of our business.<\/p>\n

“Our total assets increased by 48% during fiscal year 2026 while we remained profitable for the third consecutive year, reflecting our continued business expansion and growing market presence.<\/p>\n

“We also continued strengthening our international platform by expanding our international presence. During the year, we opened new stores in Hong Kong and Australia, expanded strategic partnerships, and continued investing in local talent and performance-based incentive programs. These initiatives further strengthen our organizational capabilities to support continued global expansion efficiently.<\/p>\n

“In addition, we continued optimizing our omnichannel retail network by converting selected underperforming directly-operated stores into franchise locations operated by experienced local partners.<\/p>\n

“Looking ahead, we remain focused on executing our long-term growth strategy through continued customer acquisition, broader global brand recognition, an increasingly diversified product portfolio, and deeper customer engagement.”<\/p>\n

Mr. Youichiro Haga, Principal Accounting and Financial Officer of Tokyo Lifestyle, remarked: “We are pleased to report a 77.6% year-over-year increase in revenue, and more importantly, this strong growth was achieved along with disciplined cost management. Although we continued investing in marketing, brand development, and global expansion initiatives, operating expenses grew at a significantly slower pace than revenue — 29.6% versus 77.6% — reducing operating expenses as a percentage of revenue from 9.1% to 6.7%. This demonstrates the scalability of our operating model and our ability to generate increasing operating leverage as the business expands.<\/p>\n

“Specifically, during the fiscal year, revenue from our directly-operated physical stores increased by 15.7%, demonstrating the resilience of our core retail business, while franchise and wholesale revenue grew by 86.9%, driven primarily by more than 320% growth in our luxury goods business and the addition of 68 new wholesale customers. This balanced growth across both retail and asset-light channels underscores the increasing diversification and scalability of our business.<\/p>\n

“Accounts receivable increased by 74.1% year over year, broadly in line with our revenue growth. This primarily reflects the rapid expansion of our wholesale and franchise businesses, together with the continued growth of our international distribution network. Although higher accounts receivable and increased working capital requirements temporarily affected cash balances and operating cash flow, we view these changes as a natural consequence of the continued rapid growth rather than a deterioration in earnings quality or financial fundamentals.<\/p>\n

“Beyond revenue growth, we delivered meaningful improvements in profitability. Gross profit from directly-operated physical stores and online business each increased by over 20%, supported by improved gross margins resulting from a more optimized product mix and disciplined inventory management. Gross profit from franchise and wholesale business also increased by 15.5%. While this segment carries a comparatively lower gross margin, it requires significantly lower operating costs and capital investment, further enhancing the efficiency, scalability, and returns of our overall business model. As a result of the changes in our business structure, particularly the increased proportion of wholesale and luxury goods, our gross profit increased by 17.5% with a moderate decline in gross margin. Despite a limited short-term impact on operating profit, we believe the existing strategy will improve capital efficiency, accelerate market expansion, strengthen our digital capabilities, and further enhance the flexibility and scalability of our business model over the long term.<\/p>\n

“Our international expansion also continued to gain momentum, with overseas sales accounting for 47.1% of total revenue. This was supported by increasing contributions from Hong Kong and other overseas markets, along with continued expansion of our global retail footprint. We believe our growing international presence will further strengthen brand recognition, diversify revenue base, and create additional long-term growth opportunities.<\/p>\n

“Overall, fiscal year 2026 results demonstrate the resilience, scalability, and financial quality of our business model. While reported net income and earnings per share declined year over year, this was primarily attributable to tax-related factors rather than changes in our underlying operating performance. Excluding these items, our core business continued to deliver solid operating performance, supported by strong revenue growth, healthy customer demand, and disciplined execution.<\/p>\n

“As macroeconomic conditions continue to improve with recovering consumer demand across our key markets, we remain confident in our ability to generate sustainable, profitable growth through disciplined capital allocation, prudent financial management, and continued operational excellence.”<\/p>\n
