Business Results and Financial Position (from April 1, 2022 through June 30, 2022)

1. Business Results

Regarding the global economic environment for the period under review, the U.S. economy remained firm on the back of robust employment and consumption. However, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (FRB) started hiking interest rates rapidly, which raised concern over an economic slowdown down the road. China saw the economic situation worsen due to lockdowns imposed by its zero-COVID policy. In Europe, the economic recovery is losing momentum as rising prices, caused by the Ukraine crisis, weigh down its economy. In Japan, while there are signs of a recovery in consumer spending, the rapid depreciation of the yen is ongoing primarily due to the negative interest rate policy of the Bank of Japan and the widening trade deficit resulting from higher prices of natural resources.

In the electronics market in which Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to as the Companies) operate, demand for components decreased due to a decrease in the production volume of smartphones and PCs due to the impact of lockdowns imposed in China. In regard to demand for mobility, the shipment quantity of components fell due to a decrease in production volumes of automobiles, caused primarily by prolonged shortages of semiconductors and the impact of lockdowns in China.

In these circumstances, regarding net sales for the period under review, whereas sales of multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs), the main product category, increased due in part to currency fluctuations (the yen depreciated by 20.8 yen year on year), sales of SAW filters and high-frequency modules plunged for smartphones. As a result, net sales in the three months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by 0.7% year-on-year to 436,657 million yen.

Looking at profits, operating income was 88,613 million yen, down 15.7% year-on-year, income before taxes was 101,204 million yen, down 2.4% year-on-year, and net income attributable to Murata Corporation was 75,201 million yen, down 2.6% year-on-year. This was due to profit-decreasing factors, such as a decreased operation rate and an increase in fixed costs, despite the profit-increasing factor of the weaker yen.
