[Qualitative Information / Financial Statements]
1. Qualitative Information relating to Consolidated Business Results
(Unless otherwise stated, all comparisons are with operating results in first quarter of the previous fiscal year, from April 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021.)
Looking at the global economy in this first quarter period, there was a worldwide shift to the policy to coexist with the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19), which led to a recovery in flow of people in both the business and tourism sectors. On the other hand, it was impacted worldwide by a logistical stagnation caused by lockdown in Shanghai, China, where the zero-COVID-19 policy is being implemented. In addition, despite the gradual recovery in automotive and semiconductor related demands, prolonged Russia-Ukraine crisis is causing further hikes in raw material and energy costs, and making its situation unpredictable.
Under these circumstances, sales of this first quarter period decreased by 7.7% (2,703 million yen) to 32,227 million yen due to the decrease in sales of rechargeable batteries and BtoC products, as well as the significant decrease in sales of projectors due to the planned downsizing of the business, whereas the sales of products for automotive and semiconductor related markets increased. In terms of profitability, operating profit decreased by 64.0% (2,290 million yen) to 1,286 million yen, ordinary profit decreased by 48.0% (1,787 million yen) to 1,934 million yen and profit attributable to owners of parent decreased by 37.9% (1,006 million yen) to 1,645 million yen due to the sales decrease of rechargeable batteries and BtoC products, as well as the time lag between soaring raw material costs and revision of selling prices corresponding to the cost increase.
The average foreign exchange rate over this first quarter under review was US$1=130 yen.
Energy
Sales of primary batteries mainly for in-car use increased due to recovery of automotive related demand. However, sales of rechargeable batteries decreased caused by production decrease at the customers. As a result, sales of Energy segment decreased by 11.8% (1,183 million yen) to 8,810 million yen. In terms of profitability, operating profit decreased by 76.5% (1,024 million yen) to 314 million yen due to the impact of sales decrease of rechargeable batteries and the impact of soaring raw material costs in battery products in general.
Functional Materials
As sales of both adhesive tapes and industrial materials increased, overall sales of Functional Materials segment increased by 8.8% (592 million yen) to 7,305 million yen. On the other hand, operating profit decreased by 61.5% (412 million yen) to 258 million yen due to the impact of time lag between soaring raw material costs and the revision of selling prices.
Optics & Systems
Recovery in automotive and semiconductor related demands led to higher sales of both in-car optical components and semiconductor related products. However, due to significant impact by the downsizing of the projector business, sales of Optics & Systems segment decreased by 11.8% (1,208 million yen) to 9,005 million yen. Operating profit decreased by 22.7% (248 million yen) to 843 million yen due to sales decrease of projector, although profit of in-car optical components increased.
Life Solution
Sales of BtoC products decreased due to the factors such as the saturation of health and hygiene related demand. As a result, sales of Life Solution segment decreased by 11.3% (904 million yen) to 7,107 million yen. Operating profit decreased by 606 million yen to loss of 129 million yen due to sales decrease of BtoC products.
For the information on sales by region, capital expenditure, depreciation, and research and development expenses, please see the supplementary information on page 5.

3. Qualitative Information relating to Projections of Consolidated Business Results
As for the business performance in this first quarter period, sales decreased in comparison with the same period of last year. Whereas the sales of products for automotive and semiconductor markets were favorable, there were sales decrease of projector due to the downsizing of its business and sales decrease of rechargeable batteries due to production decrease at the customers. However, these sales decrease had been included in our previous projection and overall sales results were generally within expected level. In addition, while BtoC products continue to struggle, the Company is planning to gradually introduce competitive and differentiated products in this fiscal year, and will work to recover from current situation. As for operating profit, the decrease for projector and rechargeable batteries were within expectations, and in response to rising raw material costs, which are increasing more than expected, the Company will work to recover by reflecting them in sales prices, although there will be a time lag.
The Company will promote business portfolio reforms by concentrating management resources on businesses that need to be expanded and strengthen the response to cost increase, to the rising raw material cost in particular. The Company will continue to strengthen the profitability to realize our full-year consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2023, which was announced on May 13, 2022.
