Today I will talk about PLENUS, which has expanded with two main business brands "Hotto Motto", a boxed meal takeout chain, and "Yayoiken", a Japanese set-menu restaurant chain.

In Japan, especially for students and single households, a " bento" or boxed lunch is an essential part of food culture, and it is rooted in daily life.
PLENUS is a company that handles everything from planning to manufacturing and sales of bento and other products.
Although PLENUS is also active in overseas expansion, perhaps due to differences in culture between Japan and overseas, unlike Japan, it is actively opening new set-menu "Yayoiken" restaurants overseas.

PER - PBR 1.28

Along with the operating loss of the previous year, PLENUS is currently working to improve profitability by closing unprofitable stores.
The main reason for the net loss was the result of an impairment loss related to fixed assets in stores.
The business forecast for the current fiscal year has not been disclosed at this moment due to the impact of Covid-19.
In addition to modest dividends, PLENUS has set up a special shareholder benefit, and once a year, shareholders can receive a meal ticket for 2,500 yen. However you must have held the stock for one year or more.
