1.Qualitative Information on Financial Results For This Quarter

(1)Explanation of Business Results

In the first quarter of the fiscal year under review, the global economy remained on a moderate recovery trend, but the outlook remained uncertain as policy interest rates remained high in each region and concerns over geopolitical risks remained high. In addition, the Japanese economy also faced a burden of increased costs due to the depreciation of the yen and increased labor costs, and the economy continued to face severe conditions, coupled with stagnant consumer spending.

Against this backdrop, our business for automotive applications in major markets struggled due to the emergence of Chinese manufacturers and the impact of certification fraud issues. However, sales for OA and industrial equipment were favorable, and the medical business continued to expand steadily, particularly in Europe and the United States.

Under these circumstances, net sales for the first quarter of the current fiscal year increased 8.3% from the same quarter of the previous fiscal year to ¥6,834 million, but operating income decreased 20.9% to ¥110 million due to a decrease in sales on a local currency basis. Ordinary income was 571 million yen in the first quarter of the previous fiscal year, mainly due to foreign exchange gains (472 million yen). However, in the first quarter of the fiscal year under review, ordinary income was 32 million yen, mainly due to foreign exchange losses (115 million yen) between the U.S. dollar and the Mexican peso, and quarterly net income attributable to owners of the parent was 66 million yen, partly due to an increase in deferred tax assets.

Results by business segment are as follows.

[Japan]

Net sales increased 4.5% compared with the same quarter of the previous fiscal year to ¥2,240 million due mainly to favorable sales for OA and industrial equipment and the effects of price increases. Segment income decreased 72.3% to ¥20 million due mainly to increases in personnel expenses and energy-related costs.

[Americas]

Net sales increased 22.8% from the same quarter of the previous year to 1,236 million yen due to a significant increase in production for medical use at the U.S. factory. The segment loss was 75 million yen (compared with a loss of 84 million yen in the same quarter of the previous year) due to the increase in the U.S. plant, although the improvement in profitability at the Mexico plant was sluggish, and the extent of the loss was slightly reduced.

[Europe]

Net sales increased 13.0% year on year to ¥854 million due to the effect of the depreciation of the yen. However, segment income decreased 57.9% year on year to ¥22 million due to a decrease in sales on a local currency basis and increases in personnel and energy costs.

[Asia]

Net sales increased 4.1% compared with the same quarter of the previous fiscal year to ¥2.503 billion due mainly to strong sales for OA and industrial equipment. Segment income increased 42.3% to ¥135 million.

  1. Explanation of Financial Position (Assets)
    Total assets at the end of the first quarter of the current fiscal year increased by 2,196 million yen

from the end of the previous fiscal year to 30,654 million yen.

In the Assets section, total current assets increased ¥1,895 million to ¥16,872 million. The main factors were increases of 1,083 million yen in cash and deposits, 599 million yen in notes and accounts receivable-trade, and 192 million yen in inventories. Total non-current assets increased 300 million to 13,781 million. This was mainly due to an increase in investments and other assets.

(Liabilities)

In the Liabilities section, total liabilities were 21,781 million yen, up 1,613 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to an increase of 1,569 million yen in borrowings.

(Net assets)

Net assets totaled 8,872 million yen, an increase of 582 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to an increase of 618 million yen in foreign currency translation adjustments.

As a result, the equity ratio was 28.9% (29.1% at the end of the previous fiscal year).

(3) Explanation of Consolidated Business Forecast and other Forecasts

We have not changed the forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2025 from the forecast released on May 10, 2024.
