Comments on full-year forecast for orders received

Full-year forecast for orders received in Power Infrastructure, Public, Industrial & Commercial Sector, and Field Service Engineering revised upward

  • Figures in parentheses indicate the change from the initial full-year forecast by subsegment

Power Infrastructure (Power T&D +7.0, Power & Energy +6.5) - Power T&D grew significantly in Singapore and India in 1H.

Germany is also expected to perform well following on from the previous year

  • Power & Energy is due to transformer projects for the power companies and large hydropower projects contributing

Public, Industrial & Commercial Sector

(Social systems +5.0, Railways +1.5, Water Infrastructure -0.2)

  • Social Infrastructure Systems performed well due to general private-sector projects along with public sector and facility projects
  • Orders received for domestic projects in Railways were higher than anticipated in 1H
  • Water Infrastructure is expected to be as initially forecast

Mobility & Electrical Components

(Motor Drive 0.0, EV+2.0, Electronics -1.5, Mobility T&S -0.5)

  • Motor Drive Solutions is expected to be as initially forecast due to an increase in elevators and a decrease in injection molding
  • In EVs, Orders received grew in 1H. 2H is expected to be in line with the initial plan
  • In Electronics Products, semiconductor market conditions are likely to recover later than initially forecast
  • Although inquiries are recovering in Mobility T&S, time is required for orders to be finalized

Field Service Engineering (+1.5)

  • Solid demand continues for conventional maintenance and semiconductor equipment

6. Impact of Changes in the External Environment on Results (Full Year Forecast)

The downward impact on full-year earnings caused by rising material prices is expected to be -¥4.5 billion (as initially forecast)

The strong Power T&D is expected to have a significant improvement in income, and the weak yen will also contribute to bolstering income

Comparison with previous fiscal year

  • Sales are expected to increase by ¥14.9 billion, and income is expected to increase by ¥4.3 billion
  • Power T&D: Sales and income are expected to increase significantly year on year due to improvements in earnings in Singapore and India
  • Power & Energy: Sales and income are expected to increase due to an increase in progressing projects in domestic power and hydropower projects

Change from initial forecast

  • Sales are expected to increase by ¥2.6 billion, and income is expected to increase by ¥1.7 billion
  • Power T&D: Growth in Singapore and Germany, along with the exchange rate were factors pushing up earnings
  • Power & Energy: Although there is expected to be some drop due to sales being delayed by a fiscal year due to changes in processes and longer delivery times for parts and materials, we will aim for an increase in income through improvement in profitability of hydropower projects.
