1. Qualitative information on Quarterly Results

  1. Explanation of Operating Results
    With regard to the global economy during the three months ended June 30, 2024, while there are still factors of concern about the outlook, such as prolonged global inflation, tight monetary policies of various countries and rising geopolitical risks such as the situation in Middle East, the economy continues to recover gradually due to improvement in employment conditions and recovery of personal consumption in Europe, United States and Japan.
    In the gaming market, which is the Group's primary market, appetite for capital investment in casino hotels and other facilities remained high against a backdrop of strong global travel demand, and in the domestic and overseas commercial markets, demand for products for contactless and non-face-to-face payment settlement remained strong. In addition, particularly in Japan, demand increased significantly in response to the issuance of new banknotes in July of this year.
    Under these circumstances, in the gaming market, we continued conduct multifaceted marketing activities, including the introduction and proposal of system products that meet customer needs, and sales promotion activities for new products. In the overseas commercial market, in order to further expand sales of our products overseas, which is one of priority measures of our group, we developed new products that meet the needs of each region and country, and implemented initiatives to expand sales channels for our products by exhibiting at exhibitions in different markets in each country, with the aim of developing new markets, especially at our new bases in North, Central and South America. In the domestic commercial market, we further focused on aggressive sales promotion activities in response to various infrastructure improvements due to the increase in tourists visiting Japan and increased demand for our products due to the issuance of new banknotes.
    As a result of the above, net sales in this three-month period totaled 10,104 million yen (up 58.2% YoY). In terms of profit, operating profit was 1,917 million yen (up 595.2% YoY) due to an increase in sales, as well as increased sales of profitable products in the domestic commercial and Equipment for the Amusement Industry segments in response to the issuance of new banknotes. In addition, the Company recorded foreign exchange gains resulting from the depreciation of the yen. This brought ordinary profit of 2,377 million yen (up 170.6% YoY) and profit attributable to owners of parent to 2,004 million yen (up 167.1% YoY)
    During this three-month period, the average exchange rates were 149.90 yen to the U.S. dollar (133.45 yen in the previous first quarter) and 162.27 yen to the euro (143.97 yen in the previous first quarter). Furthermore, the exchange rate on the final day of the quarter applied to market valuation at the end of the first quarter of this fiscal year was 161.41 yen per U.S. dollar (151.42 yen at the end of the previous fiscal year).
    Operating results by segment are as follows.
  1. Global Gaming

Sales of bill validator units for use in casino gaming machines, which were slumped in the same period of the previous year due to a shortage of parts and materials, increased significantly. As a result, segment sales totaled 4,780 million yen (up 79.5% YoY) and segment profit amounted to 1,067 million yen (up 266.1% YoY).

ⅱ. International Commercial

Due to an increase in sales of bill recycling units installed in self-checkout machines for contactless and non- face-to-face payments, segment sales amounted to 1,716 million yen (up 15.4% YoY). On the other hand, due to an increase in expenses for R&D of new products to develop new markets in North, Central and South America and participation in various exhibitions to expand sales channels, segment loss amounted to 109 million yen (loss of 115 million yen in the previous first quarter).

  • Domestic Commercial

In addition to an increase in sales of bill recycling units for payment machines in parking lot and bill validator units for bus fare boxes, demand for renewal of our product increased in response to the issuance of new banknotes. As a results, segment sales totaled 1,327 million yen (up 116.7% YoY) and segment profit amounted to 567 million yen (profit of 43 million yen in the previous first quarter).

ⅳ. Equipment for the Amusement Industry

In addition to steady sales of dedicated smart gaming machine units, sales of bill validator units in response to the issuance of new banknotes and peripheral equipment such as bill transport systems increased. As a result, segment sales totaled 2,280 million yen (up 40.5% YoY) and segment profit amounted to 683 million yen (up 137.7% YoY).

The status of each cash flow and their factors during the first quarter of the current fiscal year are as follows.

Cash flows from operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to 822 million yen (expenditure of 1,326 million yen in the previous first quarter). This was mainly because funds increased due to profit before income taxes of 2,377 million yen, while funds decreased due to a decrease in trade payables of 1,488 million yen.

Cash flows from investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities totaled 90 million yen (revenue of 129 million yen in the previous first quarter). This was mainly because funds decreased due to purchase of property, plant and equipment of 79 million yen and other factors.

Cash flows from financing activities

Net cash used in financing activities totaled 1,240 million yen (expenditure of 533 million yen in the previous first quarter). This was mainly due to funds increased due to proceeds from long-term borrowings of 1,200 million yen, while funds decreased due to repayments of long-term borrowings of 300 million yen, purchase of treasury shares of 1,576 million yen and dividends paid of 534 million yen.

In addition to these items, there was an increase in funds due to effect of exchange rate change on cash and cash equivalents of 366 million yen.

(4) Notes to Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements

Notes on changes in accounting policies

(Application of "Accounting Standard for Current Income Taxes" and relevant ASBJ regulations)

The Company has applied the "Accounting Standard for Current Income Taxes" (Accounting Standards Board of Japan (ASBJ) Statement No.27, October 28, 2022; hereinafter referred as the "Revised Accounting Standard 2022") and other relevant ASBJ regulations from the beginning of the first quarter of the fiscal year under review. The amendment to the classification of income taxes (taxes on other comprehensive income) follows the transitional treatment prescribed in the proviso of paragraph 20-3 of the Revised Accounting Standard 2022 and the transitional treatment prescribed in the proviso (2) of paragraph 65-2 of the Implementation Guidance on Tax Effect Accounting (ASBJ Guidance No.28, October 28, 2022; hereinafter referred as the "Revised Implementation Guidance 2022"). This change in accounting policies has no impact on the quarterly consolidated financial statements.

In addition, the Company has adopted the Revised Implementation Guidance 2022 for the amendment related to the revised accounting treatment in consolidated financial statements of the deferral for tax purpose of gain or loss on sale of shares of subsidiaries, etc. among consolidated companies, taking effect from the beginning of the first quarter of the fiscal year under review. This change in accounting policies have been applied retrospectively, and the figures concerning quarterly consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial statements for the previous fiscal year have been prepared on a retrospective basis.
