Overview of Business Results
Overview of Operations for FY2025
During fiscal year 2025, the global economy followed a gradual recovery trend. However, views on the economic outlook continued to be cautious due to trade policies around the world and rising geopolitical risks such as prolonged international conflicts that created a sense of uncertainty in the current economic conditions. In Europe, stability in the employment and income environment and prices underpinned personal consumption,
and the economy recovered moderately.
In the U.S., the previously strong economy came to a standstill amid the cooling of consumer sentiment due to rising prices caused by tariff policies and a slowdown in the labor market.
In China, the economy remained weak due to the prolonged recession in the real estate sector and a slump in personal consumption.
In Japan, surges in food prices subsided, and the economy maintained a moderate recovery, supported partly by an improvement in the income environment and continuation of monetary easing.
In this environment, demand for bicycles and fishing tackle continued to be weak, and for fiscal year 2025, net sales increased 3.4% from the previous year to 466,243 million yen. Operating income decreased 20.6% to 51,677 million yen, ordinary income decreased 52.3% to 47,029 million yen, and net income attributable to owners of parent decreased 55.5% to 33,991 million yen.
Reportable Segment Overview Bicycle Components
While the strong interest in bicycles continued as a long-term trend, adjustments of market inventories made gradual progress as a whole, although the situations were mixed by region.
Overseas, in the European market, retail sales of completed bicycles were robust backed by stable weather conditions, but market inventories remained at a somewhat high level.
In the North American market, while retail sales of completed bicycles remained weak due to economic uncertainty, market inventories maintained appropriate levels.
In the Asian and Central and South American markets, although retail sales of completed bicycles remained somewhat weak due to weak personal consumption, market inventories maintained an appropriate level overall. On the other hand, in the Chinese market, while interest in cycling as a sport remained firm, demand for road bikes showed signs of easing, retail sales were lackluster, and market inventories remained at a high level.
In the Oceanian market, retail sales were initially weak, but subsequently remained strong, and market inventories also maintained appropriate levels.
In the Japanese market, retail sales continued to be sluggish due to the soaring price of completed bicycles, but market inventories maintained appropriate levels.
Under these market conditions, the Shimano Group's products were well received, including XTR, the flagship model in our renewed components for mountain bikes, as well as the DEORE XT and DEORE series, and Q'AUTO, which features self-powered automatic gear-shifting function.
As a result, net sales from this segment increased 2.7% from the previous year to 354,972 million yen, and operating income decreased 20.9% to 42,841 million yen.
Fishing Tackle
While the interest in fishing tackle continued, sales remained firm mainly overseas, and market inventories improved to an appropriate level overall.
In the Japanese market, although adjustments of market inventories progressed, sales remained weak due to a decline in personal consumption as affected by price hikes and extreme heat.
Overseas, in the North American market, sales remained strong, thanks to favorable offshore fishing conditions mainly in the West Coast and the Northeast areas throughout the year, and market inventories maintained appropriate levels.
In the European market, sales were strong thanks to stable weather conditions, and market inventories remained at an appropriate level.
In the Asian market, sales were strong backed by demand for high-priced reels mainly in the Chinese market, and adjustments of market inventories made progress.
In the Australian market, sales were strong and market inventories remained at an appropriate level, supported by stable weather conditions and favorable offshore fishing conditions.
Under these market conditions, the new spinning reel STELLA SW and baitcasting reels ANTARES were well-received in the market. In addition, order-taking was brisk for POISON ULTIMA, the pinnacle of our
POISON bass rod series.
As a result, net sales from this segment increased 5.6% from the previous year to 110,832 million yen, and operating income decreased 18.9% to 8,865 million yen.
Others
Net sales from this segment decreased 2.3% from the previous year to 439 million yen and operating loss of 29 million yen was recorded, following an operating loss of 1 million yen for the previous year.

Each indicator is calculated using the consolidated results based on the formula indicated below: Equity ratio: Shareholders' equity / Total assets
Market value equity ratio: Total market capitalization / Total assets Interest-bearing debt to cash flow ratio: Interest-bearing debt / Operating cash flow Interest coverage ratio: Operating cash flow / Interest paid
Total market capitalization is calculated by:
Closing stock price on the last day of the fiscal year × The number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding at the end of the fiscal year, less treasury stock.
Interest-bearing debt covers all debt in the consolidated balance sheet for which interest is paid.
Cash flows from operating activities and the amount of interest payments stated in the consolidated statements of cash flows are used as operating cash flow and interest paid.
Forecast for the Future
Although the global economy is expected to grow firmly, it may be swayed by factors such as policy trends around the world and developments in geopolitical risks amid global instability.
In Europe, the economy is expected to follow a moderate recovery trend, backed by price stability and a recovery in personal consumption.
In the U.S., as the international situation is becoming increasingly unpredictable, the sense of uncertainty about the economic outlook may heighten, and there are concerns about the impact on the previously strong economy.
In China, the economy is expected to remain weak with the continuation of the recession in the real estate sector and the high unemployment rate.
In Japan, a moderate economic recovery is expected, thanks to improvements in the employment and income environment and the government social policies supporting domestic demand, but the economy may be affected by directions of the economic policies.
In these circumstances, the Company emphasizes not only striving to offer high-grade, attractive and "captivating products" as a "development-oriented digital manufacturing company" of Japan origin by reflecting customers' viewpoints, while closely monitoring trends in demand for bicycles and fishing tackle, but also moving forward step by step as a "value creating company" that continues to create a shared value between corporations and society. Taking a long-term perspective, we will endeavor to further enhance management efficiency and strive for sustainable corporate growth by keeping in mind the creation of new cycling and fishing culture.

Dividend Policy and Cash Dividends for FY2025 and FY2026
The Company considers the return of earnings to shareholders to be one of the most important issues for management.

Revisions to categories for recording current income taxes, etc. (taxation on other comprehensive income), conform to the transitional treatment set forth in the proviso to Paragraph 20-3 of the Revised Accounting Standard 2022 and the transitional treatment set forth in the proviso to Paragraph 65-2 (2) of the "Guidance on Accounting Standard for Tax Effect Accounting" (ASBJ Guidance No. 28, October 28, 2022; hereinafter referred to as the "Revised Guidance 2022").

This change in accounting policies is applied retrospectively, and the consolidated financial statements for the previous fiscal year reflect the retroactive application. This change in accounting policies has no impact on the consolidated financial statements for the previous fiscal year.
