1. Qualitative Information Regarding Financial Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021
- Information Regarding Operating Results
The Group's operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2021 were as followings.
During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the global economy continued to recover, mainly in the U.S. and China, although the recovery varied depending on the containment level of the spread of COVID-19 (the novel coronavirus disease) and on economic policies. In the business fields of the Group, while the automotive-related area was affected by the impact of production adjustments implemented by automobile manufacturers as a result of a supply shortage of semiconductors, demand increased year on year due to a significant recovery in automobile sales in each region. In the FA/robot-related area, capital investment demand related to the manufacture of automobiles and smartphones increased. In the semiconductor-related area, demand increased as a result of a rise in demand for use in telecommunication devices and an increase in automobile sales. Furthermore, reflecting the impact of the rise in raw material prices, revenues increased by 46.6% year on year to ¥226,852 million.
In terms of profit, adjusted operating income* and operating income increased by ¥15,808 million and ¥10,651 million year on year, respectively, to ¥8,533 million and ¥4,239 million, respectively, as a result of the increase in revenues. Income before income taxes increased by ¥11,355 million year on year to ¥4,283 million and net income attributable to shareholders of the parent company increased by ¥6,338 million year on year to ¥2,998 million.
As announced in "Announcement of Opinion in Support of the Tender Offer by K.K. BCJ-52 for the Shares of Hitachi Metals, Ltd., and Recommendation of Tender" dated April 28, 2021, a tender offer by K.K. BCJ-52("BCJ-52") for the common shares of the Company and other matters (the "Tender Offer") are planned in the future. BCJ-52 intends to make the Company its wholly owned subsidiary through the Tender Offer and a series of transactions thereafter. As a result, the Company will be independent from the Hitachi Group and its common shares will be delisted. Following the transaction, the Company will aim to increase its corporate value through renewed growth by speeding up transformation and growth, obtaining investment funds, and introducing external knowledge to reinforce its competitiveness and profitability by undertaking business reforms with the new partner.

Breaking down the revenues by business, sales of molds and tool steel increased year on year reflecting an increase in both Japanese and international demand. Sales of materials for industrial equipment increased year on year on the back of a rise in demand for products related to automobiles. Sales of aircraft & energy-related materials decreased year on year due to continued weakness in demand for aircraft-related materials as a result of travel restrictions following the spread of COVID-19. Sales of alloys for electronic products increased year on year due to high levels of demand for semiconductor package materials and solid sales of clad metals for smartphones and batteries, in addition to increased sales of organic EL panel-related components.
Sales of rolls as a whole were flat, reflecting a slight year-on-year decline in sales of various rolls and steel-frame joints for construction, while sales of injection molding machine parts were strong.
Adjusted operating income increased by ¥4,563 million year on year to ¥4,406 million, due in part to an increase in demand for our mainstay products. Operating income increased by ¥3,096 million to ¥4,612 million year on year.

Breaking down the revenues by business, among automotive casting components, sales of cast iron products increased year on year on the back of a significant recovery in automobile sales in each region and a rise in demand for use in commercial vehicles and construction and agricultural machines in North America, although the demand of the products was affected by the impact of production adjustments implemented by automobile manufacturers as a result of a supply shortage of semiconductors for automobiles. Sales of heat-resistant exhaust casting components also saw a year-on-year increase owning to a recovery in demand. As a result, sales of automotive casting components as a whole increased year on year.
Among piping components, sales of equipment for semiconductor manufacturing devices increased year on year due to the recovery of capital investment demand following the strength of the semiconductor market. Overall sales of our mainstay pipe

Breaking down the revenues by business, sales of magnetic materials increased year on year on the back of a significant growth in automobile sales in each region and strong demand related to FA/robots and electronics, although demands for rare earth magnets and ferrite magnets were affected by the impact of production adjustments implemented by automobile manufacturers as a result of a supply shortage of semiconductors for automobiles.
Among power electronics materials, soft magnetic materials, and their applied products saw brisk demand for use in telecommunications applications such as smartphones, tablets, and server equipment. Demand for amorphous metals for transformers also increased mainly in Asia. As a result, sales of soft magnetic materials, and their applied products as a whole increased year on year. Sales of ceramic components increased year on year due to an increase in demand for use in automobiles as well as for server equipment and continued strength in demand for use in medical devices from the previous fiscal year. As a result, sales of power electronics materials as a whole increased year on year.
