1. Impairment Loss on the Australia Flour Milling Business (Allied Pinnacle Pty Ltd.)

Delivering Good Health and Reliability

As a result of carefully examining the feasibility of the business plan for the Australia flour milling business and formulating a new business plan after reviewing the market and current business environment that have changed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, impairment loss was recorded in 2Q Fiscal 2023 due to the deviation from the original business plan.

Impairment loss

A$600 million (¥55.8 billion)

[Breakdown] Goodwill

: ¥31.4 billion

*No impact on the Group's results other than the Australia flour milling business

Intangibles

: ¥7.7 billion

: ¥16.7 billion

Major factors resulting in the impairment loss

Change in the market due to the impact of strict COVID-19 measures in Australia (such as Allied Pinnacle's sluggish business results due to a slowdown in the in-store bakery market, which is Allied Pinnacle's major customer base)

Effects of various cost increases beyond expectations due to supply chain disruptions caused by COVID-19 and a sharp rise in prices of resources and grain caused by the situation in Ukraine (such as delay in price pass-through)

2. First第2Six四半Months期 実績Results of Fiscal 2023

Delivering Good Health and Reliability

Net sales increased mainly due to the implementation of wheat price revisions in the domestic flour milling business, higher wheat prices in the overseas flour milling business and foreign currency translation effects, and steady sales in the prepared dishes and other prepared foods businesses.

Operating profit increased due to strong bran prices in the domestic flour milling business and favorable performance in the overseas flour milling business.

Quarterly loss due to impairment loss in the Australia flour milling business based on re-examination of the business plan, considering market changes influenced by strict COVID-19 measures in Australia.
