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

      During the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, the global economy maintained strong growth on the back of slowing inflation. However, uncertainty with regard to the outlook increased due to the prolonged unrest in Ukraine and the Middle East, the sluggish Chinese economy, and policy trends in various countries.

      In Europe, personal consumption recovered as inflation subsided, and the economy continued in a gradual recovery trend.

      In the U.S., although consumer confidence declined due to changes in trade policies, the economy remained strong on the back of a stable employment environment.

      In China, the economy remained weak as the result of stagnant domestic demand caused by the recession in the real estate sector.

      In Japan, the economy followed a moderate recovery trend due to favorable demand from inbound tourists as well as the pick-up in personal consumption as a result of improvements in the employment and income environment.

      In this environment, interest in bicycles and fishing tackle continued, and for the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, net sales increased 12.9% from the same period of the previous year to 113,539 million yen. Operating income increased 20.3% to 16,142 million yen, ordinary income decreased 46.6% to 15,404 million yen, and net income attributable to owners of parent decreased 58.7% to 9,786 million yen.

      Reportable Segment Overview

      ① Bicycle Components

      While the strong interest in bicycles continued as a long-term trend, market inventories remained high

      despite gradual adjustments.

      Overseas, in the European market, market inventories remained at a somewhat high level, while signs of recovery started to appear in retail sales of completed bicycles as demand stabilized.

      In the North American market, retail sales of completed bicycles remained weak, but market inventories returned to appropriate levels.

      In the Asian and Central and South American markets, although retail sales of completed bicycles remained weak as personal consumption continued to be sluggish, the level of market inventories started to show signs of improvement. In the Chinese market, while demand was strong due to the popularity of cycling as a sport, market inventories have remained at a somewhat high level since the end of 2024.

      In the Japanese market, market inventories remained at appropriate levels, but retail sales were sluggish due to the soaring price of completed bicycles.

      Under these market conditions, the Shimano Group received a favorable reception for its products, including SHIMANO 105, a component for road bikes, and SHIMANO GRX, a gravel bike component.

      As a result, net sales from this segment increased 15.6% from the same period of the previous year to 87,972 million yen, and operating income increased 38.5% to 14,503 million yen.

      ② Fishing Tackle

      While the interest in fishing tackle continued, sales remained weak but adjustments of market inventories

      made progress.

      In the Japanese market, although adjustments of market inventories progressed, sales were lackluster due to cooling consumer confidence as a result of cold weather and price hikes.

      Overseas, in the North American market, market inventories remained at an appropriate level, but sales remained at the same level as the previous year due to unfavorable weather.

      In the European market, sales remained strong, and market inventories remained at an appropriate level.

      In the Asian market, sales were lackluster due to sluggish personal consumption and adverse weather conditions, and market inventories remained somewhat high.

      In the Australian market, sales were favorable and market inventories remained at an appropriate level due to favorable weather and stable fishing conditions.

      Under these market conditions, the new spinning reels TWIN POWER XD and the baitcasting reels ANTARES were well-received in the market. In addition, order-taking continued to be brisk for the rods POISON ADRENA.

      As a result, net sales from this segment increased 4.5% from the same period of the previous year to 25,468 million yen, and operating income decreased 44.7% to 1,636 million yen.

      ③ Others

      Net sales from this segment increased 0.8% from the same period of the previous year to 98 million yen

      and operating income of 1 million yen was recorded, following an operating loss of 11 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 quarter of fiscal year 2025 amounted to 912,749 million yen, a decrease of 46,204 million yen compared with the figure as of the previous fiscal year-end. The principal factors included an increase of 9,475 million yen in construction in progress, an increase of 7,830 million yen in notes and accounts receivable-trade, an increase of 4,653 million yen in merchandise and finished goods, a decrease of 66,152 million yen in cash and time deposits, and a decrease of 2,634 million yen in buildings and structures.

      Total liabilities amounted to 75,898 million yen, an increase of 558 million yen compared with the figure as of the previous fiscal year-end. The principal factors included an increase of 1,655 million yen in accounts payable-trade, a decrease of 650 million yen in deferred income taxes, and a decrease of 300 million yen in provision for product warranties under long-term liabilities.

      Net assets amounted to 836,850 million yen, a decrease of 46,762 million yen compared with the figure as of the previous fiscal year-end. The principal factors included a decrease of 26,530 million yen in foreign currency translation adjustments, a decrease of 16,850 million yen in acquisition of treasury stock, and a decrease of 3,974 million yen in retained earnings.

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

    The consolidated business performance forecasts have been revised as follows, in light of factors such as non-operating expenses that were recorded due to the appreciation of Asian currencies caused by the weaker

    U.S. dollar during the first quarter of fiscal year 2025.

("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.
