Fast Retailing (ISIN JP3802300008) reported 10.80 percent year-over-year growth in UNIQLO Japan same-store sales including online sales for September 2026. The company also faces a JPY 87,000 analyst target after a move from JPY 86,000, while its euro quote stood below the prior close on October 6, 2026.

According to Fast Retailing on October 2, 2026, same-store sales including online sales reached 110.80 percent of the prior-year level, while sales from directly operated stores and online sales reached 109.90 percent. The company attributed the increase to lower temperatures and strong fall and winter product sales.

Customer spending drives sales

The September data show a clear mix shift. Customer numbers fell to 99.50 percent of the prior-year level, but average purchase per customer rose to 111.30 percent, producing the 10.80 percent same-store sales increase.

The broader directly operated store base also grew sales by 9.90 percent year over year. That result covered 771 stores, compared with 751 stores in the same-store and online-sales measure, and gives the upcoming annual results a concrete domestic demand indicator.

Analyst target moves higher

Monex reported on September 3, 2026 that a major US brokerage kept an Overweight rating and raised its target from JPY 86,000 to JPY 87,000. The same report cited a JPY 85,333 consensus target from 12 analysts as of September 2, 2026.

Fast Retailing's next scheduled business-results announcement is October 8, 2026, according to its investor-relations calendar. That release will test whether September's higher customer spending can offset the decline in customer numbers.
