・In FY26/03, operating profit was negatively impacted by approximately
¥2.4 billion due to the rapid appreciation of the yen in Q1. However, for FY27/03, we assume an exchange rate of ¥155, and do not expect any foreign exchange impact on operating profit.

【Explanation】
During periods of rising sales (light blue bars), required working capital (gray line) increases, while net cash (red line) declines significantly. When cash becomes constrained, we avoid external financing as much as possible and instead share funds within the Group, thereby preventing deterioration in ROA.
Assuming a seasonally driven increase in sales in the first half of FY27/03, net cash is expected to decrease sharply in Q2.

Part2 Q&A© 2026 Hosiden Corporation 26 Empowering Tomorrow's Connections
▌１.President's Message
Current Challenges
・Current challenges can be summarized into the following three points:
① Synthetic resins
・Unstable supply; rising prices; limited impact on amusement business
② Memory
・Sharp price increases; procurement difficulties
③ Rare metals
・Usage minimized, but supply remains unstable
Full-year forecast for FY2027/03
・Regarding the Company's forecast, visibility is clear for the first half, while the second half remains uncertain, and sales are expected to decline in the January-March period; furthermore, it was difficult to formulate the full-year forecast this time due to the overlap of the earnings announcement date with that of a major customer, and we aim to increase production volume by utilizing the facilities at the new plant.
Overview by Market
Amusement
・The launch of the new product business was very strong, and the Vietnam factory operated at full capacity. In Vietnam, large-scale manufacturers have been increasingly entering the market, making it more difficult to hire workers. Intensifying wage competition has led to a significant decline in employee retention. Wages increased by approximately 40% in the previous year. While Vietnam was once characterized by low wages and an abundant labor supply, hiring has now become more challenging and labor costs have surged. We will continue to make every effort to maintain production quality.
Mobile Communications
・Sales in the first half of FY2026/03 declined by approximately 20%, but partially recovered in the second half, resulting in an overall decline of around 15%
for the full year. For FY2027/03, orders for new products have already been secured, and a recovery is expected. We will continue to focus on this segment.
Automotive
・EV-related challenges persist, but OEM performance is improving. Most Japanese and U.S. automakers are near plan achievement, with Europe also recovering. No current business with Chinese OEMs due to payment terms and inventory risks; monitoring the situation. Transportation sales grew 9% last year and are expected to grow ~7% this year.
Others
・Declines in AV equipment and medical, healthcare related segments; recovery expected to take time.
Continued focus on growth in other markets.
Capital investment
・Capital investment have increased from ¥2.8 billion in FY24/03 to ¥6.7 billion in FY25/03 and ¥7.9 billion in FY26/03. The most significant recent increase has been in machinery-related investments. In Vietnam, due to labor shortages and rising labor costs, we will continue to actively promote automation investments. For the construction of Building No. 8 in Vietnam, we selected a Japanese contractor with a proven track record, taking durability into account. The facility is well-equipped with advanced production equipment. While no major investments in buildings are planned for FY27/03, we expect to maintain a certain level of capital investment going forward.
New Business
・As part of our new business initiatives, we are focusing on sensor technologies. As reported by some media outlets, we aim to develop sensing solutions that can quickly transmit signs of natural disasters and other events wirelessly to local governments and national authorities. Although other companies are also working on sensors, the market is relatively small and characterized by high-mix, low-volume production, resulting in limited participation. However, we aim to leverage our core technologies to expand our product lineup and develop a business that can contribute to a wide range of industries.
Cash
・Although it is sometimes said that the Company holds excessive cash, the amusement business requires a significant amount of working capital. If chargeable materials increase suddenly, cash levels can decline rapidly.
・Due to seasonality, after the Christmas and Black Friday sales periods, production adjustments are made, resulting in reduced payments and increased collections, which in turn raise the Company's cash balance at the end of March.
・On the other hand, cash becomes tighter toward the year-end sales season.
Although the Company has not relied on borrowings for many years, the situation this year will depend on order volumes.
・Approximately 90% of transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars, and borrowing in U.S. dollars would require relatively high interest payments.

Q & A
© 2026 Hosiden Corporation Empowering Tomorrow's Connections
▌ Q&A
Q-1
A-1
Q-2
A-2
Will amusement production increase from Q1 FY2027/03?
It will definitely increase compared to Q4 of the previous fiscal year.
In the amusement business, if materials are provided on a chargeable basis, will price increases in those materials lead to higher sales?
Sales will increase; however, if processing fees remain unchanged, profit margins will decline.
Q-3
A-3
Q-4
A-4
For the FY2027/03 plan, will automation have an impact on profits? Also, is an improvement in profit margins expected this fiscal year?
It is difficult to realize the benefits of automation from the first year. In addition, the initial setup is not easy, and the increase in labor costs may outweigh the benefits of automation. Therefore, an improvement in profit margins is unlikely this fiscal year. The effects are expected to materialize from FY2028/03 onward.
You mentioned procurement issues as a risk factor. Do you have visibility on countermeasures for this year?
We are currently in negotiations regarding procurement. However, it is not possible to continue the business without any changes in procurement prices. It will be important to continue discussions with customers to determine how much of the cost increases can be passed on.
Q-5
A-5
Q-6
A-6
For the FY2027/03 plan, have risk factors been incorporated?
At this stage, we have been able to manage the situation, and no specific risks have been factored into the plan. However, there remains a possibility that impacts may arise going forward.
In announcing the medium-term management plan, are there any key strategies for growth in the automotive and smartphone markets?
We will formulate a new three-year medium-term plan this year. As a basic policy, we aim to ensure growth in sales outside the amusement business. In particular, in the automotive business, we are taking actions with a long-term perspective. For smartphones, while significant growth is not expected, we aim to achieve steady annual growth of a few percent.
