Yahoo Japan is probably the most visited website in Japan. They are known for more than just Auctions.
Yahoo Japan is a separate company from Yahoo. It used to operate with licensing for the "Yahoo" brand, until it bought the brand usage outright from Verison a couple years ago.
Therefore, Yahoo's operation has no effect on Yahoo Japan. It is more affected by its parent company Softbank. When Softbank faced losses from its Vision Fund, they reorganized Yahoo into a subsidiary (in lieu of being a sibling company) and therefore consolidated its profitable accounting as well.

I just walked past a Yahoo Japan physical store selling SIM cards and unnecessary plastic objects. Although it looked like no customer has actually wandered in there since the 90s..
