Since it is the scheduled time, allow us to get started.
JAPAY's Q2 2024 top line grew by +14.0% YoY and exceeded the consensus projection by +4.6%, thanks to the weakening of the Japanese yen. But it is likely that the Japanese yen could strengthen going forward, and this means that Japan Tobacco's 2H and FY 2024 results are at risk of missing expectations. I lower my rating for JAPAY to a Hold in view of the potential yen appreciation headwind.
