POLA ORBIS HOLDINGS INC. (4927) FY2019 Financial Summary

1. Overview of Consolidated Operating Results

(1) Overview of Consolidated Operating Results for Fiscal 2019

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, the Japanese economy continued on a moderate recovery track, despite weaknesses such as personal consumption due to the effects of natural disasters and the raising of the consumption tax rate, amid continued improvement in the employment and income climate.

The domestic cosmetics market saw a slowdown in recent growth, partly reflecting the impact of China's E-commerce Law coming into effect. The market scale other than inbound consumption temporarily increased due to rush demand before the consumption tax hike and then a reactional decrease continues. In the overseas cosmetics market, a modest expansion continued with steady growth in Asia, mainly in China.

Within this market environment, the POLA ORBIS Group (the "Group") continued its efforts to achieve further improved profitability in Japan, a solid shift toward profitability from overseas operations and creations of brands for next-generation growth. The efforts were in line with the four-yearmedium-term management plan (from 2017 to 2020) that started in fiscal 2017.

As a result of these factors, the Group achieved the following consolidated operating results for fiscal 2019. Consolidated net sales decreased 11.5% year on year, to ¥219,920 million, reflecting the impact of a decline in

domestic inbound sales of the flagship brand POLA. Operating income declined 21.2% year on year, to ¥31,137 million, resulting from lower gross profit accompanying the decrease in sales. Ordinary income declined 21.4% year on year, to ¥30,630 million. In addition to these results, due to the effects of recording an impairment loss on non-current assets related to Jurlique and a loss on liquidation of business due to a decision to withdraw from the pharmaceuticals business in the previous year, profit attributable to owners of parent increased 134.8% year on year, to ¥19,694 million.

POLA ORBIS HOLDINGS INC. (4927) FY2019 Financial Summary

Beauty Care

The Beauty Care segment consists of the flagship brands POLA and ORBIS, the overseas brands Jurlique and H2O PLUS, and the brands under development THREE, DECENCIA, Amplitude, ITRIM, and FIVEISM ×

THREE.

POLA is seeking to further improve the value of its brand and strengthen its business foundation through efforts to launch highly functional products focused on the field of anti-aging and skin-whitening and to strengthen development of professional human resources who embody the value of the brand. POLA proactively engaged in product development including the launch of White Shot LX and White Shot MX, which contain a new whitening active ingredient, in May, refreshing of the APEX personalized skincare series in July, revamping of esthetic services, which incorporate state-of-the-art esthetic theory, a personalized menu and new equipment as well as professional treatment in October, and the launch of B.A GRANDLUXE III, POLA's highest grade of facial serum in November. POLA also commenced selling POLA Wrinkle Shot Serum at duty-free shops in Japan and abroad, as well as through domestic e-commerce and cross-bordere-commerce. POLA will continue this sequential expansion overseas and accelerate growth in overseas operations. Although growth is ongoing in Asia, POLA recorded net sales and operating income below those of the previous year due to the slowdown in inbound demand in the domestic market, reflecting the impact of China's E-commerce Law coming into effect.

ORBIS is making efforts to enhance its presence through the creation of brand differentiation in order to re-grow into a highly profitable business. ORBIS stepped up communication centered on products that embody the world view of the brand message, "Simply you. Simply beautiful." along with consistent marketing communication. The ORBIS U anti-aging skincare series that was completely revamped in October 2018 and ORBIS DEFENCERA, the first Food for Specified Health Uses launched in Japan with recognized skincare functions, contributed to gaining new customers. However, net sales and operating income of ORBIS remained at the same levels as those of the previous year due to the effects of a decrease in existing customers, as a result of strategically narrowing down customer targets.

For overseas brands, the Group took initiatives aimed at business growth in Australia and Asia for Jurlique and in the United States, where H2O PLUS originated. In August, Jurlique launched a new product series containing rose extracts proprietary developed in-house, and contributed to gaining new customers. On the other hand, net sales fell below those of the previous year due to the reduction of wholesale in order to concentrate on directly-operated stores in Australia, and to holding back shipment of products in conjunction with the shift from the distributor model to a directly operated model in China, in an effort to recover brand presence. On the cost front, thanks to efforts such as reforming the cost structure by downsizing headquarters functions, the closing of unprofitable stores in China and the proactive reduction of fixed costs, operating losses improved compared with those of the previous year. H2O PLUS saw a deterioration in net sales and operating losses compared with those of the previous year due to withdrawal from some retailers as well as a decrease in shipments of hotel amenities, despite pursuing expansion in e-commerce channels through launching new product series, enriching the content and improving usability on the brand site.

Brands under development recorded higher net sales than those of the previous year due to growth in overseas sales of THREE, which marked the 10th anniversary of the brand's launch, as well as the contributions of Amplitude, ITRIM, and FIVEISM × THREE, which were launched in 2018. However, operating income fell below that of the previous year due to further growth investments for the new brands.

As a result of the factors noted above, net sales-sales to external customers-were ¥214,886 million, down 7.1% year on year, and operating income was ¥30,193 million, down 21.2% year on year.

Real Estate

The Real Estate segment concentrates on the leasing of office buildings in urban areas. Efforts are currently directed at sustaining and improving rental income and reducing vacancy rates by creating attractive office environments. Another area of emphasis is the residential properties rental business. This business highlights condominiums perfect for families with young children. During fiscal 2019, although net sales fell below those of the previous year as a result of some tenants moving out, profitability increased due to the implementation of measures to improve the value of buildings as well as revision of occupancy conditions in light of the situation in the market and at other companies. As a result, operating income exceeded that of the previous year.

As a result of the above, net sales-sales to external customers-generated by the Real Estate segment totaled ¥2,619 million, down 3.2% year on year, and operating income was ¥1,021 million, up 2.0% year on year.

Others

The Others segment is the building maintenance business.

The building maintenance business is mainly engaged in the operation and management of buildings. During fiscal 2019, net sales and operating income were below those of the previous year due to a decrease of construction orders.

As a result of the above, in addition to the impact of withdrawal from the pharmaceuticals business in January

Cash flows from operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased 30.2% from a year ago, to ¥21,127 million. The primary components contributing to an increase in net cash were ¥29,813 million in profit before income taxes, ¥7,377 million in depreciation and amortization, ¥689 million in impairment loss, ¥607 million of decrease in notes and accounts receivable - trade, and ¥1,066 million of decrease in inventories.

Cash flows from investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities increased 37.1% from a year ago, to ¥12,514 million. The main factors were an increase in net cash resulting from ¥25,510 million in proceeds from sales and redemption of short-term investments in securities, and a decrease in net cash resulting from outflows of ¥11,900 million due to purchase of short-term investments in securities and ¥14,390 million due to purchase of investments in securities for the management of surplus funds in line with investment plans, ¥4,589 million due to purchase of property, plant and equipment, and ¥4,730 million due to purchase of intangible assets.

Cash flows from financing activities

Net cash used in financing activities decreased 3.9 % from a year ago, to ¥19,336 million. The decreases were primarily attributable to the application of ¥1,638 million in repayments of lease obligations and ¥17,697 million in cash dividends paid.

POLA ORBIS HOLDINGS INC. (4927) FY2019 Financial Summary

(4) Consolidated Performance Forecast for Fiscal 2020

The Japanese economy is expected to continue on a moderate recovery track for the time being backed by the effects of various government policies amid a continuing trend toward improvement in the employment and income climate, despite certain weaknesses such as personal consumption. However, there is a risk of downward pressure on the Japanese economy due to changes in consumer sentiment, economic downturns in countries around the world, the effects of the outbreak of COVID-19(the novel coronavirus), and government policy trends.

Against this back drop, the Group has formulated its four-yearmedium-term management plan that has the goal of achieving the long-term vision through 2020 announced immediately after the listing of its shares in 2010. In order to sustain stable growth of flagship brands to lead Group earnings, bring overseas operations solidly into the black overall, expand brands under development, create new brands and pursue M&A activity, the Group will position strengthening of operations (reinforcing R&D, human resources and governance), as well as enhancement of capital efficiency and enrichment of shareholder returns, as key strategies and carry them out.

For the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020, the Group forecasts, on a consolidated basis, net sales of ¥217,000 million, down by 1.3%, operating income of ¥31,200 million, up by 0.2%, ordinary income of ¥30,700 million, up by 0.2%, and profit attributable to owners of parent of ¥20,000 million, up by 1.5% compared with the year ended December 31, 2019, considering steady execution of priority strategy and impact of COVID-19(the novel coronavirus).

2. Basic Approach to the Selection of Accounting Standards

Over the near term, the Group will prepare its consolidated financial statements based on Japanese GAAP, taking into account the inter-period comparability of the consolidated financial statements and comparability between companies.

With regard to the application of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the Group's policy is to take appropriate measures in light of the situation in Japan and abroad while considering.

(Going Concern Assumptions)

None

(Changes in Accounting Policies)

The Group subsidiaries which have been prepared their financial statements in accordance with IFRS, adopted IFRS 16 "Leases" (Issued in January 2016; hereafter, "IFRS 16") at the beginning of the current fiscal year. As a transitional measure upon the adoption of IFRS 16, the subsidiaries have recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying this Standard on the initial date of application.

For leases that the Group as lessee previously classified as operating leases applying IAS 17, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the date of initial application.

With the application of this Standard, "Other" under "Property, plant and equipment" has increased ¥1,270 million, "Other" under "Current liabilities" has increased ¥713 million, and "Other" under "Non-current liabilities" has increased ¥603 million in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

And the impact of this change on the profit and loss for the current fiscal year is minor.

The Company has applied "Partial Amendments to Accounting Standard for Tax Effect Accounting" (Accounting Standards Board of Japan (ASBJ) Statement No. 28, February 16, 2018) at the beginning of the first quarter of the current fiscal year. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are reclassified and included in the investments and other assets section and the non-current liabilities section, respectively.

As a result, the deferred tax assets, ¥7,230 million under "Current assets" are included in the deferred tax assets, ¥9,859 under "Investments and other assets" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.

(Additional Information)

At the 13th Annual Shareholders' Meeting held on March 26, 2019, the Company decided to introduce performance based share-based compensation plan (the "Plan"), with a view toward materializing the Group's long-term vision and medium-term management plan, in order to further clarify the linkage between compensation for the applicable directors and corporate officers of the Company (excluding non-resident persons for Japanese tax purposes), as well as directors of its subsidiaries (excluding outside directors and non-residents for Japanese tax purposes) and the business performance of the Group, as well as its stock value, while enhancing motivation for boosting of its corporate value over medium to long term, and further promoting the common interest shared with shareholders.

1. Summary of the Plan

The Plan is structured based on the adoption of a scheme referred to as a Board Incentive Plan Trust (the "BIP Trust"). The BIP Trust delivers and grants shares of the Company to the applicable directors, etc., along with the cash proceeds from the conversion thereof (collectively, the "shares in the Company, etc."), commensurate with their individual executive ranking and level of achievement against the corporate performance targets.

2. The Company's shares remaining in the trust

The Company's shares remaining in the trust are booked in nets assets as treasury stock at their book value (excluding the amount of ancillary expenses) in the trust. The book value and the number of shares of the treasury stock at December 31, 2019 are ¥517 million and 148,600 shares, respectively.

POLA ORBIS HOLDINGS INC. (4927) FY2019 Financial Summary

(Segment Information)

  1. General Information about Reportable Segments
    A reportable segment is a component of the Group for which discrete financial information is available and whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Board of Directors to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance.
    The Group primarily develops, manufactures and markets cosmetics products and related products. It promotes a multi-brand strategy of holding a range of brands and winning market shares for each of its high- profile brands in order to satisfy the diversifying needs of its customers based on their values. Comprehensive strategies are planned and products are marketed by each brand name in Japan and overseas. In addition to its cosmetics business, a variety of businesses is conducted to contribute to the Group's profits.
    Therefore, reportable segments consist of the Beauty Care business, the Group's core business, and the Real Estate business, which indirectly supports the Group's core business.
    The Beauty Care business manufactures and distributes cosmetics and health foods and sells fashion items (women's underwear, women's apparel and jewelry) under the following brand names: POLA, ORBIS, Jurlique, H2O PLUS, THREE, DECENCIA, Amplitude, ITRIM, and FIVEISM × THREE. The Real Estate business is engaged in the leasing of office buildings and residential properties.
  2. Calculation Method for Net Sales, Profit (Loss), Assets, Liabilities and Other Items by Reportable Segment The accounting method for the Group's reportable business segments is generally the same as described in "Basis for Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements."
    Segment income is based on operating income. The amounts of inter-segment unrealized profits and transfers are calculated based on prevailing market prices.
