1. Qualitative information on the quarter under review

• (1) Explanation of operating results

  During the third quarter of the consolidated fiscal year, the economy remained in severe conditions due to the impact of the global outbreak of the Coronavirus pandemic. In Japan, although capital investment has declined, the manufacturing industry saw signs of an increase in production and exports and there are signs of improvement in corporate sentiment. Overseas, although economic conditions remain severe in emerging countries, there are signs of recovery in the US and China.

  In these conditions, the Group's net sales fell 9.1% year on year to ¥138,671 million, due to production adjustments resulting from a decline in global demand for automobiles, mainly in the first half of the fiscal year.

  In terms of profits, operating income fell 17.3% year on year to ¥12,345 million, ordinary income fell 15.2% year on year to ¥13,112 million, and profit attributable to owners of the parent fell 19.8% year on year to ¥8,458 million.

  Net sales by segment for the third quarter of the fiscal year are as follows:

  Sales in the Energy and Industrial Plants Division decreased by 7.4% year on year to ¥42,733 million.

  However, excluding the large-scale shipbuilding construction projects and overseas construction projects posted in the previous fiscal year, demand was solid particularly from petroleum refining and petrochemical companies as well as electricity companies.

  Sales in the Industrial Products Division decreased by 5.1% year on year to ¥32,123 million, as the Coronavirus pandemic resulted in a slowdown in demand for inorganic thermal insulation materials for electronic parts.

  Sales in the Advanced Products Division rose 7.2% year on year to ¥17,258 million, due to strong demand for semiconductors.

  Sales in the Autoparts Division fell 18.4% year on year to ¥27,383 million, due to the impact of production adjustments in the automotive industry as demand for automobiles declined worldwide with the spread of Coronavirus in the first half of the fiscal year, although the demand in Japan and overseas started to recover in the third quarter of the fiscal year.

  Sales in the Building Materials Division fell 16.3% year on year to ¥19,170 million as the pandemic resulted in the delay and postponement of construction projects as well as a decline in demand.

• (2) Explanation of financial position

  1) Assets, liabilities, and net assets

Total assets at the end of the third quarter of the consolidated fiscal year ending March 31, 2021 were ¥212,125 million, up ¥4,048 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year. This was largely because accounts receivable from completed construction contracts fell by ¥3,449 million and cash and deposits fell by ¥1,047 million, while investment securities rose by ¥4,067 million, costs on uncompleted construction contracts rose by ¥3,306 million, and electronically recorded monetary claims rose by ¥1,189 million.

Liabilities at the end of the third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021 were ¥79,137 million, down ¥1,705 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year. This was largely because advances received on uncompleted construction contracts rose by ¥1,869 million and deferred tax liabilities rose by ¥1,802 million, while income taxes payable fell by ¥2,255 million, notes and accounts payable-trade fell by ¥1,683 million, and provision for bonuses fell by ¥1,183 million.

Net assets at the end of the third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021 were ¥132,987 million, up ¥5,754 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year. This was largely because foreign currency translation adjustment declined by ¥754 million, while retained earnings rose by ¥3,416 million and valuation difference on available-for-sale securities rose by ¥2,812 million.

2) Cash flows

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021 (hereinafter, "cash") decreased by ¥360 million compared to the end of the previous fiscal year, to ¥32,747 million. Cash flows and factors affecting cash flows are as follows:

(Net cash provided by [used in] operating activities)

Net cash provided by operating activities was ¥9,816 million (compared to receipts of ¥11,322 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year).

This was primarily because, while cash decreased due to ¥5,950 million in income taxes paid and a ¥3,308 million increase in costs on uncompleted construction contracts, cash increased due to ¥12,779 million in income before income taxes, ¥4,821 million in depreciation, and a ¥2,413 million decrease in trade receivables.

(Net cash provided by [used in] investing activities)

Net cash used in investing activities was ¥4,425 million (compared to expenditures of ¥7,825 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year).

This was because of a decrease in cash due to ¥5,591 million in expenditures for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment.

(Net cash provided by [used in] financing activities)

Net cash used in financing activities was ¥5,520 million (compared to expenditures of ¥5,531 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year).

This was because of a decrease in cash due to ¥5,008 million in cash dividends paid.

(3) Explanation of information related to future prospects including consolidated results forecasts

The consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021 has been revised from the full-year earnings forecast announced on August 3, 2020. For details, please refer to "Notice Concerning Recording of Impairment Loss and Revision of Earnings Forecast" separately released today.

The Company has prepared these earnings forecasts based on the information available on the day that these materials were released, and actual results could differ from forecasts depending on a variety of factors.
