Shares of NISHIMATSUYA CHAIN Co., Ltd. <7545> struggled for momentum on Wednesday after the company’s April monthly sales report showed a deceleration in growth. Same-store sales for the period from March 21 to April 20 rose 1.0% year-on-year, marking a third straight month of expansion. However, the result fell short of the 3.5% gain seen in March, a slowdown that pressured the stock in today's session. Despite the overall cooling growth rate, customer traffic remained healthy with a 2.8% increase, supported by strong demand for spring and summer clothing as temperatures rose. Sales of childcare products and fashion accessories also performed well, contributing to a 4.5% rise in total sales across all stores.
