1. Qualitative Information

(Profit for the period, as used hereinafter, refers to profit for the period attributable to owners of the Parent.)

(1) Results of Operations

Revenues was ¥2,667.4 billion, a decrease of ¥1,273.9 billion, or 32% year over year. This was mainly due to decreased transaction volumes in the Petroleum business and the Steel business.

Gross profit was ¥379.7 billion, a decrease of ¥104.2 billion, or 22% year over year, mainly due to decreased market prices in the Australian metallurgical coal business and a decrease in franchise commissions from franchise stores in the convenience store business.

Selling, general and administrative expenses was ¥344.9 billion, a decrease of ¥9.8 billion, or 3% year over year, mainly due to reductions in business activities due to the impact of COVID-19.

Gains on investments decreased ¥6.0 billion, or 41% year over year, to ¥8.7 billion, mainly due to worsened fund evaluation profit and loss and the rebound from gains on sales due to asset replacements and business reorganization in the previous year.

Impairment losses on property, plant and equipment and others remained nearly the same year over year at ¥1.3 billion.

Other income (expense)-net improved ¥7.6 billion, or 52% year over year, to an expense amount of ¥7.0 billion, mainly due to gains and losses related to foreign currency exchange.

Finance income decreased ¥32.3 billion, or 63% year over year, to ¥18.6 billion, mainly due to decreased dividend income from resource-related investments.

Share of profit of investments accounted for using the equity method decreased ¥46.4 billion, or 76% year over year, to ¥14.8 billion, mainly due to impairment losses on property, plant and equipment and decreased vehicle sales in Mitsubishi Motors Corporation.

As a result, profit before tax decreased ¥166.6 billion, or 75% year over year, to ¥56.0 billion.

Accordingly, profit for the period decreased ¥124.5 billion, or 77% year over year, to ¥36.7 billion.

(2) Financial Position

Total assets at June 30, 2020 was ¥17,801.1 billion, a decrease of ¥248.6 billion, or 1%, from March 31, 2020.

Current assets was ¥6,546.8 billion, a decrease of ¥390.6 billion, or 6%, from March 31, 2020. This was mainly due to a decrease in trade and other receivables attributable in part to decreased transaction volumes in the Steel business and the Petroleum business.

Non-current assets was ¥11,254.3 billion, an increase of ¥142.0 billion, or 1%, from March 31, 2020. This was mainly due to exchange translation of property, plant and equipment resulting from the appreciation of the Australian dollar in the Australian metallurgical coal business.

Total liabilities was ¥11,608.3 billion, a decrease of ¥224.5 billion, or 2%, from March 31, 2020. Current liabilities was ¥4,943.8 billion, a decrease of ¥402.5 billion, or 8%, from March 31, 2020. This was mainly due to a decrease in trade and other payables attributable in part to decreased transaction volumes in the Asian automotive business and the Petroleum business.

Non-current liabilities was ¥6,664.5 billion, an increase of ¥178.0 billion, or 3%, from March 31, 2020. This was mainly due to an increase in bonds and borrowings due to new fund procurements.

Total equity was ¥6,192.8 billion, a decrease of ¥24.1 billion, or 0%, from March 31, 2020.

Equity attributable to owners of the Parent was ¥5,215.0 billion, a decrease of ¥12.4 billion, or 0%, from March 31, 2020. This was mainly due to a decrease in retained earnings as result of the payment of dividends, despite an increase in exchange differences on translating foreign operations resulting from the appreciation of the Australian dollar and retained earnings accumulated by profit for the period.

Non-controlling interests decreased ¥11.7 billion, or 1%, from March 31, 2020, to ¥977.8 billion. Net interest-bearing liabilities (excluding lease liabilities), which is gross interest-bearing liabilities minus cash and cash equivalents and time deposits, increased ¥13.3 billion, or 0%, from March 31, 2020, to ¥4,349.6 billion.

(3) Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2020 was ¥1,487.7 billion, an increase of ¥164.9 billion from March 31, 2020.

(Operating activities)

Net cash provided by operating activities was ¥296.4 billion, mainly due to cash flows from operating transactions, dividend income and decreases in working capital requirements due to decreases in transaction volume by the impact of COVID-19, despite the payment of income taxes.

(Investing activities)

Net cash used in investing activities was ¥123.9 billion. The main uses of cash were payments for investments and loans to affiliated companies and the purchase of property, plant and equipment, which exceeded such inflows as the sale of listed stocks and the sale of investments in affiliated companies.

Main items (Segments) included in investing cash flows were as follows.

New/Sustaining Investments

3

  • Investment in HERE Technologies (Other)
  • European integrated energy business (Power Solution)
  • Australian metallurgical coal business (Mineral Resources)
  • Copper business (Mineral Resources)

Sales and Collection

- Listed stocks (Food Industry/Consumer Industry)

As a result, free cash flows, the sum of operating and investing cash flows, was positive ¥172.5 billion.

(Financing activities)

Net cash used in financing activities was ¥16.3 billion. The main uses of cash were payments of dividends, repayments of lease liabilities and the acquisition of treasury stock, which exceeded cash provided by financing activities.

The dividends were paid in compliance with the shareholder returns policy of progressive dividends in line with sustained profit growth. The acquisition of treasury stock was carried out in consideration of the cash flows during the period of Midterm Corporate Strategy 2018 and the appropriate capital standards, and with the aim of improving capital efficiency. Regarding financing through debt, the policy is to maintain debts at an appropriate level in light of liquidity and financial soundness.

In addition to the aforementioned operating cash flows for financial accounting purpose, in order to present the source of funds for future investments and shareholder returns appropriately, Mitsubishi Corporation defined "Underlying operating cash flows (after repayments of lease liabilities)", which is operating cash flows excluding changes in working capitals whilst including repayments of lease liabilities which are necessary in the ordinary course of business activities, and "Adjusted free cash flows", which is the sum of "Underlying operating cash flows (after repayments of lease liabilities)" and investing cash flows.

Underlying operating cash flows (after repayments of lease liabilities) was positive ¥114.9 billion.

As a result, Adjusted free cash flows was negative ¥9.0 billion.

For the segment- specific forecasts and market condition assumptions, please refer to Supplementary Information for financial results for the three months ended June 2020 (Results for the Three Months Ended June 2020 and Forecasts for the Year Ending March 2021).

stagnant economic activity in Europe, India, Japan, etc.

Stagnant

Lower crude oil prices due to decreased demand for petroleum as a result of mobility

restrictions and stagnant economic activity. (* There is a half-year time lag until the crude oil price is reflected in results)

Fewer customers in convenience and retail businesses.

On the other hand, lifeline-related businesses such as supermarkets (selling daily necessities) are performing solidly.

Stagnant prices of steel products etc. reflecting decreased demand due to the sharp decrease of automobile demands, the stagnant construction/infrastructure market, etc.

Lower revenues in airport-related and leasing business due to decrease in passengers as a result of mobility restrictions etc. On the other hand, tenant demand for data centers and logistic facilities is solid.

Lower petroleum and petrochemical product prices due to decreased worldwide demand, in general. However, demand is solid for product groups related to daily necessities.

Possibility of delays of construction schedule and various negotiations.

However, the power business should have limited impact since its earnings is largely based on long-term contracts.

Lower salmon prices due to decreased demand of dining out in Europe and America.

However, limited negative impact by taking in solid demand for meat etc. from at-home consumption.

Lower revenues in the entire segment due to delays of construction and cancelled events.

Especially, lower demand in domestic machinery rental business.
