  1. Overview of Business Results
    1. Overview of Operations for the Period under Review

      During the first nine months of fiscal year 2025, the global economy remained firm. However, views on the economic outlook continued to be cautious due to changes in trade policies around the world and rising geopolitical risks caused by prolonged international conflicts.

      In Europe, personal consumption remained strong as the income environment improved and inflation subsided, and the economy continued to grow moderately.

      In the U.S., the economy showed signs of deceleration amid the cooling of consumer sentiment due to rising prices stemming from tariff hikes and a slowdown in the labor market.

      In China, the economic recovery remained lackluster, mainly due to the impact of the prolonged recession in the real estate sector and a slump in personal consumption.

      In Japan, although price hikes dragged down personal consumption, the economy followed a gradual recovery trend, supported by robust demand from inbound tourists and improvements in the income environment.

      In this environment, interest in bicycles and fishing tackle continued, and for the first nine months of fiscal year 2025, net sales increased 4.8% from the same period of the previous year to 351,020 million yen. Operating income decreased 27.8% to 36,565 million yen, ordinary income decreased 48.1% to 30,248 million yen, partly due to valuation loss on foreign exchange, and net income attributable to owners of parent decreased 61.0% to 16,105 million yen.

      Reportable Segment Overview

      ① Bicycle Components

      While the strong interest in bicycles continued as a long-term trend, market inventories remained high in some regions, and inventory adjustments progressed in line with market trends in each 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, retail sales of completed bicycles remained weak due to an uncertain economic outlook, but market inventories maintained appropriate levels.

      In the Asian, Central and South American and Oceanian markets, although retail sales of completed bicycles remained somewhat weak due to the cooling of consumer sentiment, market inventories improved to an appropriate level overall. On the other hand, in the Chinese market where retail sales for cycling as a sport remained lackluster, market inventories remained at a high level.

      In the Japanese market, retail sales were 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 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 4.9% from the same period of the previous year to 266,243 million yen, and operating income decreased 27.0% to 30,161 million yen.

      ② Fishing Tackle

      While the interest in fishing tackle continued, sales remained firm and adjustments of market inventories made progress.

      In the Japanese market, while adjustments of market inventories progressed, sales remained lackluster due to a decline in consumer sentiment as affected by price hikes and extreme heat.

      Overseas, in the North American market, sales remained strong, supported by favorable offshore fishing conditions mainly in the West Coast and the Northeast areas, and market inventories remained at an appropriate level.

      In the European market, sales were strong thanks to stable weather conditions, as well as favorable market conditions in Eastern Europe, and market inventories maintained an appropriate level.

      In the Asian market, sales were strong and inventory adjustments made progress, as demand for high-priced reels was firm mainly in the Chinese market.

      In the Australian market, sales were strong and market inventories remained at an appropriate level, supported by stable fishing conditions.

      Under these market conditions, the new spinning reel STELLA SW was 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 4.6% from the same period of the previous year to 84,435 million yen, and operating income decreased 31.2% to 6,409 million yen.

      ③ Others

      Net sales from this segment increased 4.5% from the same period of the previous year to 342 million yen and operating loss of 6 million yen was recorded, following an operating loss of 14 million yen for the same period of the previous year.

    2. Overview of Financial Position for the Period under Review Assets, Liabilities and Net Assets

      Total assets as of the end of the first nine months of fiscal year 2025 amounted to 897,224 million yen, a

      decrease of 61,728 million yen compared with the figure as of the previous fiscal year-end. The principal factors included an increase of 11,742 million yen in construction in progress, an increase of 4,471 million yen in investment securities, an increase of 3,538 million yen in merchandise and finished goods, and a decrease of 79,896 million yen in cash and time deposits.

      Total liabilities amounted to 71,639 million yen, a decrease of 3,699 million yen compared with the figure as of the previous fiscal year-end. The principal factors included an increase of 1,477 million yen in others under current liabilities, an increase of 1,278 million yen in accrued employee bonuses, and a decrease of 4,237 million yen in income taxes payable.

      Net assets amounted to 825,584 million yen, a decrease of 58,028 million yen compared with the figure as of the previous fiscal year-end. The principal factors included a decrease of 42,406 million yen in retained earnings and a decrease of 12,056 million yen in acquisition of treasury stock.

    3. Forecast for the Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2025

    The consolidated business performance forecasts for fiscal year 2025 remain unchanged from the figures disclosed at the announcement of the financial results for the first half of fiscal year 2025 (dated July 29, 2025).

  3. Notes relating to Consolidated Financial Statements (Note concerning Assumption of Going Concern)

Not applicable.

(Note on Significant Change in the Amount of Shareholders' Equity) (Acquisition of treasury stock)

The Company acquired 2,145,500 shares of common stock from February 13, 2025 to September 30, 2025 through market purchases, including Off-auction Own Share Repurchase Trading (ToSTNeT-3) on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, based on the resolutions of the Board of Directors meetings held on February 12, 2025 and August 19, 2025. As a result, treasury stock increased by 42,016 million yen during the first nine months of fiscal year 2025, including the increase due to acquisition of fractional shares.

(Cancellation of treasury stock)

The Company canceled 1,410,000 shares of treasury stock on May 1, 2025 based on the resolution of the Board of Directors meeting held on April 23, 2025. As a result, retained earnings and treasury stock decreased by 29,892 million yen and 29,892 million yen, respectively, during the first nine months of fiscal year 2025.

(Note on Changes in Accounting Policies)

("Application of Accounting Standard for Current Income Taxes," etc.)

The Company has applied the "Accounting Standard for Current Income Taxes" (ASBJ Statement No. 27, October 28, 2022; hereinafter referred to as the "Revised Accounting Standard 2022") from the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal year 2025.

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 has no impact on the quarterly consolidated financial statements.

In addition, for amendments related to the revised accounting treatment for consolidated financial statements when gains or losses on the sale of shares, etc. in subsidiaries resulting from transactions between consolidated subsidiaries are deferred for tax purposes, the Revised Guidance 2022 has been applied from the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal year 2025. This change in accounting policies is applied retrospectively, and the quarterly consolidated financial statements for the same quarter of the previous fiscal year and the consolidated financial statements for the previous fiscal year reflect the retroactive application.

This change in accounting policies has no impact on the quarterly consolidated financial statements for the same quarter of the previous fiscal year or on the consolidated financial statements for the previous fiscal year.

Notes: 1. There is no difference between total segment income (loss) and operating income in the consolidated statements of income.

2. Net sales includes revenue from contracts with customers and other revenue; however, most of the revenue is generated from contracts with customers, therefore other revenue is not deemed important and is thus not displayed separately.

Notes: 1. There is no difference between total segment income (loss) and operating income in the consolidated statements of income.

2. Net sales includes revenue from contracts with customers and other revenue; however, most of the revenue is generated from contracts with customers, therefore other revenue is not deemed important and is thus not displayed separately.
