FY2025 1H Earnings Overview

Market Conditions and Our Initiatives in FY 2025 1H

Market and Demand Trends

  • The anticipated impact of trade policy was milder than expected, though the extent varied by region.

    • Japan and Europe: Weak demand in the automotive industry

    • U.S., China, and Asia: Steady demand in telecommunications and electronics

      Our Company's Performance

  • Growth: Increased sales offset the effects of tariffs and currency fluctuations, resulting in higher sales.

  • Profitability: Although there were several factors negatively impacting profits-such as tariffs, forex, and costs related to the Fictiv acquisition-overall results were roughly in line with the initial plan.

    Strategy Execution & Foundation Strengthening

  • We continued to balance short-term and mid-term measures, with steady progress made in our Digital MODEL initiatives.

  • Investments to strengthen the business foundation, which are essential for sustainable growth, also continued.

  • Since July, Fictiv's performance, now included in our consolidated results, has been strong, and the integration plan is proceeding smoothly.

FY2025 1H Earnings Overview

Growth of +3.9% year-over-year due to the effects of proprietary initiatives. Record-high performance continued pre-Fictiv consolidation.

Higher sales volumes balanced out tariffs and forex, but profit still fell YoY because of growth-

related investments, including Fictiv.
