1. Qualitative Information on Quarterly Results
(1)Explanation of Business Results
During the first quarter of the year under review, the global economy continued to face an uncertain situation, with uneven economic conditions depending on the region: in Europe, where stagnation continued, China, where recovery was slow, and the USA, where the situation was firm, amid increasing geopolitical tensions worldwide, including the situation in Ukraine and the Middle East.
In the USA, the economy remained robust against a backdrop of strong consumer spending and capital investment, despite continued monetary tightening.
In China, the recovery slowed due to a sluggish property market and a slowdown in consumer spending.
In Japan, corporate capital investment remained strong, while consumer spending was sluggish and the economy remained moderate.
As for the consolidated business results of V Technology group (herein after “the group” or “the company”) for the first quarter of the current fiscal year, net sales amounted to 9,523 million yen (5,749 million in same period last year, hereinafter figures in brackets() refer to the same period of the previous year), and operating loss amounted to 948 million yen (operating loss 641 million), Ordinary loss was 759 million(ordinary loss 410 million yen),Net loss attributable to owners of the parent amounted to 656 million(net loss of 406 million yen). Orders received by the Group in the current consolidated fiscal year totaled 9,879 million yen(9,264 million yen ).As a result, the order backlog at the end of the consolidated fiscal year under review amounted to 40,162 million yen (37,436 million yen).
Segment results are as follows.
(FPD Equipment Business)
In the flat panel display (FPD) equipment business, panel market conditions recovered slightly and capital investment was generally in line with plans. Under these circumstances, orders received in the Group's FPD equipment business during the first quarter totaled 7,237 million yen (6,433 million yen), with an order backlog of 19,497 million yen (24,204 million yen), net sales amounted to 7,639 million yen (4,133 million yen), and operating loss was 334 million yen (operating loss 347 million yen).
(Semiconductor and Photomask Equipment Business)
In the semiconductor and photomask equipment business, although supply and demand continued to deteriorate for some semiconductors, capital investment related to our group generally progressed as planned. Under these circumstances, orders received by the Group in the semiconductor and photomask equipment business during the first quarter of the year totaled 2,254 million yen (2,592 million yen), and the order backlog totaled 19,959 million yen (15,958 million yen), net sales amounted to 1,495 million yen (1,377 million yen), and operating loss was 554 million yen (operating loss 204 million yen).
- Explanation of Financial Condition
(Assets)
Total assets at the end of the first quarter of the current fiscal year decreased by 1,208 million yen from the end of the previous
consolidated fiscal year to 74,397 million yen. This was mainly due to a decrease in "Notes and accounts receivable" of 4,383 million yen, and an increase in “Cash and deposits” of 1,967 million yen.
(Liabilities)
Total liabilities at the end of the first quarter of the current fiscal year year decreased by 410 million yen from the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year to 40,556 million yen. This was mainly due to a decreases of 1,067 million yen in "Long-term borrowings“.
(Net assets)
Net assets decreased by 798 million yen from the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year to 33,841 million yen. This was mainly due to a decrease of 968 million yen in "Retained earnings".
(3) Explanation of Forward-Looking Statements
