TOKYO, Dec. 18, 2024 /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, as well as other products in Hong Kong, Japan, North America and the United Kingdom, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first six months of fiscal year 2025 ended September 30, 2024.
Mr. Mei Kanayama, Principal Executive Officer of Tokyo Lifestyle, commented, "I am thrilled to report that Tokyo Lifestyle has achieved significant success during the first six months of fiscal year 2025. Our total revenue increased by 32.1%, and income from operations increased by 867.8%, underscoring our strong growth trajectory and strategic execution.
For the six months ended September 30, 2024, total revenue reached $98 million, representing a 32% increase from $74.2 million for the same period last year, driven by the robust performance of our expanding franchise network and dedicated wholesale customer base.
For the six months ended September 30, 2024, our extensive customer base of directly-operated stores and online sales channels, generated $11 million in revenue during the period, despite challenging market conditions. Notably, for the six months ended September 30, 2024, revenue from franchise stores and wholesale customers grew by 53.8% to $86.9 million, supported by a 16.7% expansion in total stock-keeping units (SKUs), which reached approximately 165,200 SKUs. Meanwhile, the number of wholesale customers and franchisees increased by 30, from 171 as of March 31, 2024, to 201 as of September 30, 2024. This demonstrates that the growth in our customer base significantly fueled our revenue growth.
Revenue generated from companies in Japan accounted for 71.7% of total revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2024, while revenue generated from companies in Hong Kong and other regions contributed 28.3%. Notably, three franchise customers in Japan collectively generated $10.42 million in revenue from April to September 2024, and we anticipate continued growth from our franchisees in Japan and Hong Kong.
Despite a challenging business environment and intensified competition in our directly operated physical stores, we adopted a flexible and resilient strategy. This included optimizing our existing physical and online stores, while steadily and rapidly expanding our sales network and franchise partnerships in key markets such as Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, Europe, and North America. We believe that these efforts have significantly improved our profitability while enhancing our brand visibility and global recognition. Through careful planning and partner selection, we believe that we have laid a solid foundation for future global expansion and growth.
Beyond strengthening our presence in the Asian market, we are actively exploring opportunities in North America, Europe, and new business sectors. We have made notable progress, including opening a new Reiwatakiya store at Fashion Show Las Vegas, launching online platforms for the Reiwatakiya brand in the UK and Canada, and establishing a joint venture to develop the trading card retail business. These strategic initiatives further reinforce our business presence and enhance global brand recognition.
We believe that our continued focus on exploring new opportunities while fostering loyalty among existing customers through best-in-class quality and services has resulted in a steadily expanding customer base and strong financial performance, and our growth strategies and operational achievements have been acknowledged by the market and industry -- we are honored to have been awarded a Gold Stevie® Award in the 'Company of the Year - Retail - Medium-size' category at the 21st Annual International Business Awards® in September 2024.
Looking ahead, we remain committed to our robust strategies, including strengthening our current market footprint, closely monitoring evolving market trends and customer preferences, improving operational efficiency and profitability, optimizing our distribution network and commercial outlets, and exploring new partnership opportunities. We are confident these efforts will contribute to a brighter future and greater value for our Company and shareholders."
Mr. Youichiro Haga, Principal Accounting and Financial Officer of Tokyo Lifestyle, added: "I am proud to share the Company's strong financial performance for the first half of fiscal year 2025. Alongside significant revenue growth, our gross profit increased by 28.4% during the period, with a stable gross margin exceeding 12%. Despite a challenging macroeconomic environment and fierce competition in both physical and online retail, our strategic transformations—such as reducing underperforming stores and refining our product portfolio—resulted in higher gross profit and stable margins across all three business lines.
While the cost of revenue rose slightly in line with revenue growth, this reflects our strategic investments in expanding into new territories and sectors with carefully selected partners. Meanwhile, our cost-control measures have proven effective, as our operating expenses decreased by 2.2%, even with an increase in headcount to support our rapid expansion. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of our focus on cost management, strategic investment, and revenue growth. For the first half of fiscal year 2025, we reported a net income of $1.3 million, with cash reserves of $3.1 million and stable working capital of $28.5 million as of September 30, 2024.
Looking forward, we will continue enhancing financial performance through robust business strategies, disciplined cost management, and strategic investments. We remain focused on identifying new revenue streams and are confident that these efforts will drive sustained long-term value for our shareholders."

Revenue from franchise stores and wholesale customers increased by 53.8%, to $86.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, from $56.5 million for the same period of last year. The increase was mainly due to the Company's continuous effort in extending the Company's products offering as the Company's total stock keeping units ("SKUs") increased from approximately 141,500 SKUs during the six months ended September 30, 2023, to approximately 165,200 SKUs during the six months ended September 30, 2024. In addition, the increase was also due to the increased revenue generated from franchise stores which previously was recognized under physical stores as mentioned above, as well as the increased revenue from the new wholesale customers because the Company continued to develop the Company's customer base by entering into business relationships with new wholesale customers during the six months ended September 30, 2024.
Revenue from directly-operated physical stores decreased by 40.2%, to $6.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, from $11.6 million for the same period of last year. The decrease was due to the decrease in revenue generated from directly-operated physical stores both in Japan and Hong Kong for the six months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period last year. During the six months ended September 30, 2023, the Company started to offer luxury products, which contributed a significant portion of directly-operated physical stores sales in Japan. However, the sales of luxury products were unstable and decreased during the six months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period last year. The above-mentioned decrease was partially offset by revenue generated from directly-operated physical stores in the United States and Canada, as the Company currently operate four directly-operated physical stores in the United States and one directly-operated physical store in Canada during the six months ended September 30, 2024.
Revenue from online stores and services decreased by 31.4%, to $4.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, from $6.0 million for the same period of last year. The decrease was mainly due to a decreased number of online stores as the Company closed some underperformed online stores to improve the Company's profitability.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue increased by 32.7%, to $85.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, from $64.7 million for the same period of last year.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit increased by 28.4%, to $12.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, from $9.5 million for the same period of last year.
Gross margin decreased by 0.4 percentage points, to 12.4% for the six months ended September 30, 2024, from 12.8% for the same period of last year.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses decreased by 2.2%, to $8.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, from $9.1 million for the same period of last year. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily attributable to the following factors:
a decrease in transaction commission paid to third-party e-commerce marketplace operators by $277,719, or 30.4%, from $914,651 for the six months ended September 30, 2023, to $636,932 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. The Company paid third-party e-commerce marketplace operators transaction commission ranging from 1.8% to 3.0% based on the Company's sales amount. The decrease in transaction commission was in line with the decrease in the Company's online sales;
a decrease in promotion and advertising expenses by $183,432, or 57.4%, from $319,758 for the six months ended September 30, 2023, to $136,326 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was mainly due to the Company's effort in cost control as well as decreased promotion and advertising expenses for the Company's physical stores as the Company has transferred some of the Company's physical stores into franchise stores; and
an increase in payroll, employee benefit expenses, and bonus expenses by $203,612, or 7.1%, from $2,872,796 for the six months ended September 30, 2023, to $3,076,408 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was mainly due to increased payroll, employee benefit expenses, and bonus expenses of $541,218 in Hong Kong, the United States and Canada, which was due to the increased headcount caused by the expansion of the Company's business operation in these regions. The increase was partially offset by the decreased payroll, employee benefit expenses, and bonus expenses of $337,606 in Japan, which was attributable to the decreased headcount resulting from the implementation of cost control as well as the transformation of the Company's directly-operated physical stores in Japan.
Interest Expenses, net
Interest expenses, net included interest expenses calculated at interest rate per loan agreements and loan service costs, which were directly incremental to the loan agreements and amortized over the loan periods. Interest expenses, net decreased by 17.3%, to $0.8 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, from $1.0 million for the same period of last year. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in amortized loan service costs in relation to the Company's syndicated loans of $0.4 million, and the decrease was partially offset by an increase in interest expenses, which was mainly due to the increased weighted average interest rate for the six months ended September 30, 2024.
Other Income, net
The Company's other income, net primarily includes tax refund, disposal gain or loss from property and equipment, government subsidies, and other immaterial income and expense items. Other income, net increased by 377.4%, to $319,624 for the six months ended September 30, 2024, from $66,947 for the same period of last year. The increase was mainly due to the increased gain from the disposal of property and equipment during the six months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period of last year.
Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes
Benefit for income taxes was $0.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to an income tax benefit of $0.4 million for the same period of last year. The increase in benefit for income taxes was mainly due to decreased current income tax expenses resulting from the decreased taxable income for the six months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period last year, as well as reduced statutory income tax rate as the Company qualified as a small and medium-sized enterprise and subjected to a lower statutory income tax rate after a capital reduction during the six months ended September 30, 2024.
Net Income
Net income decreased by 31.6%, to $1.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, from $2.0 million for the same period of last year. Our income from operations increased significantly by $2,887,717, or 867.8%, from $332,745 for the six months ended September 30, 2023, to a net income of $3,220,462 for the six months ended September 30, 2024, which was attributable to the increased gross profit and decreased selling, general and administrative expenses. However, due to increased loss from foreign currency exchange as well as change in fair value of warrants liabilities, our net income decreased for the six months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period last year.
Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share
Basic and diluted earnings per share was $0.03 for the six months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $0.05 for the same period of last year.
Financial Condition
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of $3.1 million as compared to $2.5 million as of March 31, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, the Company also had approximately $104.3 million of account receivable balance due from third parties. Approximately 28.3% of the September 30, 2024 balance has been subsequently collected, and the majority of the remaining balance is expected to be collected by March 31, 2025. The collection of such receivables made cash available for use in the Company's operations as working capital, if necessary.
Net cash used in operating activities was $2.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, mainly derived from net income of $1.3 million for the period, and net changes in the Company's operating assets and liabilities, which were mainly due to the increased prepaid expenses and other current assets of $9.4 million, and decreased taxes payable of $4.6 million, which was partially offset by the increased deferred revenue of $6.9 million and increased accounts payable of $3.4 million. The Company entered into a sales agreement with wholesale customers and received advance payment of $6.9 million during the six months ended September 30, 2024. In order to fulfill the sales agreement, the Company made advance payments to the Company's suppliers to secure the products. Therefore, the Company's prepaid expenses and other current assets and deferred revenue increased during the six months ended September 30, 2024.
Net cash used in investing activities was $0.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, mainly due to purchases of property and equipment in the aggregate amount of $0.7 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, which primarily consisted of proceeds from short-term borrowings of $2.8 million, repayments of long-term borrowings of $0.1 million, and repayments of obligations under finance leases of $0.1 million.
