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.
