Qualitative information on the quarterly financial results Explanation regarding the operating results Japan's economy during the consolidated cumulative period of the first quarter continued to recover gradually; personal consumption also improved with a steady employment and income environment, but economic environment remain unclear due to the uncertainty of the foreign economic situation, beginning with the trade problem in the US and China. In the domestic automotive market, the total number of new vehicles sales increased at 108.1% (statistical data of the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association) as compared to the consolidated cumulative period of the same quarter from the previous year (hereinafter referred to as the same quarter from the previous year) due to the last minute surge in demand before the consumption tax rate increase.. The number of registered used cars, as with the number of new vehicle sales, increased compared to the same quarter from the previous year. On the other hand, the business environment of the logistics industry is in serious circumstances with insufficient drivers due to the background of a strained supply and demand in the labor market as well as cost increase factors such as increased wages, increased hiring costs, continued high fuel expenses, and compliance response. Under such circumstances, our group devised a 3-yearmid-term plan from July of 2018 until June of 2021, and are proceeding with the following 5 topics: (1) development of new businesses in anticipation of a reduction of the domestic automobile market and next generation mobility society, (2) Expansion of human resources business corresponding to the strained supply and demand in the labor market and decreasing working age population, (3) Expansion of foreign business in anticipation of economic growth such as in ASEAN countries, (4) Maximization of effect to establish regional block companies through promotion of transportation reform in the vehicle transportation business, and (5) Creation of group synergy including subsidiaries and cooperating companies and promotion of optimization. As a result, the business results of our group are as follows: sales revenue of 22,931 million yen (109.5% compared to the same quarter from the previous year) and operating profit of 1,217 million yen (346.6% compared to the same quarter from the previous year). Also, the profit before taxes was 1,223 million yen (354.9% compared to the same quarter from the previous year), and the profit of the quarter attributable to the equity shareholders of the company was 803 million yen (34.86-fold compared to the same quarter from the previous year).

Automobile related businesses For vehicle transportation, which is the core business, the number of units for transportation contracts for new used vehicles increased due to the last minute surge in demand even with the smaller scale compared to the previous consumption tax increase, and the start of Mitsubishi Motors' vehicle transportation business in the middle of August of 2019,which led to an increase in revenue. There was a decrease in revenue in the used vehicle export business due to the delay in shipment resulting from the impact of Typhoon 15, but there was an overall increase in revenue in the automotive related businesses. The restructuring of the transportation system including cooperating companies has been accelerated with the impetus of establishment of regional block companies in the vehicle transportation business, and thorough implementation of cost management is being continued while aiming to achieve a systematic allocation and optimum distribution network throughout Japan. Profits increased in the automotive business due to the revision of transportation charges from January of 2019, review of the depreciation period of car carriers to match the actual life expectancy, and drop in unit price of fuel expenses compared to the same quarter of the previous year, in the midst of business challenges such as promoting initiatives for work style reforms to create a rewarding company and decrease the total work hours, increased labor costs and recruitment costs to deal with driver shortages, and increased vehicle costs due to the increased number of vehicles and the measures against aging of car carriers. As a result, the overall sales revenue in the automobile related businesses was 16,307 million yen (108.8% compared to the same quarter from the previous year), and the segment profit was 1,618 million yen (278.6% compared to the same quarter from the previous year). Human resource business With tightening of the labor demand accompanying the economic recovery, and increasing in personnel expenses, the difficulty in employment in major cities have become serious matters; therefore, the Group has promoted a regional shift from the major cities to smaller cities and reinforcement of the sales system, and has reviewed its product portfolio strategically and continuously. In addition to the fact that the existing pick up service and driver dispatch business have transitioned steadily, participation in the newly entered airport related business has increased revenues; the profit increased with restructuring non-profitable business and cost reduction. As a result, the sales revenue of the overall human resource business was 4,902 million yen (107.1% compared to the same quarter from the previous year), and the segment profit was 247 million yen (159.4% compared to the same quarter from the previous year). General cargo business Revenue in the transport / warehousing business increased due to the increased cargo volume from the last minute surge in demand of the consumption tax rate increase in clients mainly handling household equipment, and the revenue in the port cargo handling business increased due to increased coal cargo and automobile cargo handling. Furthermore, the CKD business was launched and contributed to the sales revenue increase, increasing the revenue in the overall general cargo business as well. Profit increased with the increased revenue in the transport / warehousing business and port cargo business, but expenses related to the launch of the CKD business continued, and there was a significant decrease overall in profit in the general cargo business. As a result of the above, the sales revenue of the overall general cargo business was 1,721 million yen (125.3% compared to the same quarter of the previous year), and the segment loss was 137 million yen (segment profit of 173 million yen in the same quarter of the previous year). Furthermore, the company expenses not included in the abovementioned report segment (expenses affiliated with our company's management division), etc. are allocated as an item in the "adjustment amount" as indicated in "2. (Segment information) in the summary of consolidated statements for the quarter," and totaled 510 million yen. Explanation regarding financial position ① Status of assets, liabilities, and equity (Assets) Current assets decreased 766 million yen (4.2%) compared to the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year and were 17,411 million yen. This was mainly because, cash and cash equivalents decreased 474 million yen, the operating receivables and other receivables also decreased by 215 million yen. Non-current assets increased by 6,298 million yen (29.5%) compared to the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year to 27,675 million yen. This was mainly due to an increase of tangible fixed assets of 6,334 million yen resulting from an increase of assets of right to use, etc. As a result, total assets increased by 5,531 million yen (14.0%) compared to the previous consolidated fiscal year to 45,086 million yen. (Liabilities) Current liabilities increased 1,586 million yen (12.6%) compared to the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year to 14,148 million yen. - 3 - This was mainly due to other financial liabilities increasing by 2,356 million yen due to an increase of lease debts, while income tax payables decreased by 438 million yen. Non-current liabilities increased by 3,490 million yen (89.0%) compared to the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year to 7,411 million yen.

(Equity) Total equity increased by 454 million yen (2.0%) compared to the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year to 23,527 million yen. This is mainly because retained earnings increased by 477 million yen due to the recording of quarterly profits attributable to equity shareholders of the company.

(Changes in accounting policies) The important company policies that our group applies to this quarterly consolidated financial statement summary will be the same company policies applicable to the consolidated financial statements of the previous consolidated accounting year excluding the below. Application of IFRS No. 16 (lease) Our group has applied the following standards starting from this first quarter of the consolidated accounting period. Standard Name of the standard Summary IFRS No. 16 Lease Definition of lease and revision of accounting process In the application of IFRS No. 16 "Lease (announced in January of 2016, hereinafter referred to as IFRS No. 16), retroactive revision approach is being applied. Therefore, revised comparison information is not shown again, and the cumulative effect of the application of IFRS No. 16 is recognized on the initial application date, which is July 1, 2019. In the previous consolidated accounting year, our group has classified all substantial risks and lease contracts with economic benefit as finance lease. Lease assets are initially recognized at the fair value or the current value of the total amount of minimum payment lease fee. Lease contracts other than finance leases are classified as operating leases and are not appropriated in the consolidated statement of affairs of our group. The payment lease fee of operating leases is recognized as an expense throughout the lease period based on the straight-line method. During this consolidated accounting year, our group did not categorize borrower leases as finance leases or operating leases in accordance with IFRS No. 16, has introduced a single accounting model, and has recognized lease debts which show the obligation to pay the right-of-use asset and lease fee which show the right to use the underlying assets as a general rule for all leases, excluding cases of short term leases with a lease period shorter than 12 months or small amount assets leases. Accompanying the application of IFRS No. 16, for borrower lease transactions, our group has measured the right to use asset at acquisition cost and the lease debt at the current value of the total amount of unpaid lease fees at the lease commencement date. The acquisition cost of the right to use asset is initially measured by adjusting the prepaid lease payment, etc. to the initial measured amount of the lease debt. In the summary of consolidated financial status statement for the quarter, the right-of-use asset is shown as included in the "tangible fixed assets," and the lease debt is included in the "other financial debts." The depreciation of the right-of-use assets and interest costs related to the lease debt are appropriated after recognizing the right-of-use assets and the lease debts. Our group estimates the lease period of the right-of-use asset by adding a reasonably certain time period in which executing an option to extend the lease or executing an option to cancel the lease will not be exercised during the irrevocability period of the lease. Also, the discount rate applied to the lease debts related to the applicable right-of-use assets utilize the borrowing interest rate of the borrower.
