1. Consolidated Performance

(1) Operating Results

In the first quarter under review, global economic activities were expected to resume amid easing of restrictions aimed at preventing the spread of COVID-19. However, high energy and raw material prices, supply chain disruptions, heightened geopolitical risks, and lockdowns in China following the spread of infections led to an ongoing strong sense of uncertainty. In Japan, despite signs of economic recovery thanks to vaccination rollouts, the situation remains unpredictable due to the yen's sharp depreciation, imminent price hikes, and the increasing risk of new COVID-19 outbreaks.

In the domestic housing-related industry, the number of new housing starts showed signs of weakness, but the household appliance sector remained firm, particularly in the renovation category.

Under these circumstances, the Rinnai Group pursued three key strategies under New ERA 2025, its medium-term business plan-"advancement in addressing social challenges," "expansion of business scale," and "revolution of corporate structure"-while promoting RIM 2050, its corporate policy targeting carbon neutrality. During the year, we launched ECO ONE X5, a hybrid water heater with heating system that excels in energy efficiency, economy, and ease of installation, and we successfully developed the world's first 100% hydrogen combustion technology for a residential hot water heater. In these and other ways, we made steady progress in fulfilling our promise to our customers ("Creating a healthier way of living") and achieving sustainable and solid long-term growth.

For the period, we increased sales, mainly due to steady sales in Japan, especially of water heaters, as well as higher overseas sales thanks to growth in mainstay products in various regions and the impact of foreign exchange movements. On the earnings side, we reported an increase in operating income due to higher sales in Japan and overseas. This was despite soaring raw material prices and logistics costs, as well as expenses related to the commissioning of a new plant in the United States.

As a result, consolidated net sales for the period amounted to ¥95,006 million, up 12.4% from the previous corresponding period. Operating income rose 9.8%, to ¥10,079 million, while ordinary income climbed 15.2%, to ¥11,437 million. Net income attributable to owners of the parent company grew 13.3%, to ¥7,014 million.

Our results by geographical segment were as follows:

Japan

In Japan, we worked to strengthen our production system to address supply delays, leading to growth in sales of mainstay products, centered on water heaters. Despite soaring raw material prices and distribution costs, sales in Japan increased 11.1% year on year, to ¥45,224 million, and operating income jumped 30.4%, to was 6,366 million.

United States

In the United States, local demand remained firm despite disruptions in international logistics and tight parts procurement conditions, which affected the supply of finished tankless water heaters and knockdown parts from Japan. Accordingly, sales increased 22.4%, to ¥11,133 million. Due to higher procurement costs and expenses for the operation of a new plant, however, we reported a segment operating loss of ¥494 million.

Australia

Sales in Australia declined due to tight parts procurement conditions, which affected supplies of tankless water heaters and heating equipment from Japan. Due also to surging raw material prices and logistics costs, sales decreased 5.1% year on year, to ¥5,667 million, and operating income fell 83.5%, to ¥42 million.

3

China

While business activities were constrained by lockdowns in Shanghai due to the spread of COVID-19, sales of mainstay water heaters were steady and foreign exchange factors also had a positive impact. As a result, sales in China rose 16.6% year on year, to ¥13,108 million, and operating income jumped 60.0% to ¥2,253 million.

South Korea

Sales of high-efficiency boilers weakened due to a decrease in government subsidies and a warm winter, but kitchen appliances performed well. Accordingly, sales in South Korea grew 4.1%, to ¥8,660 million. Due to soaring raw material prices, however, operating income decreased 4.3%, to ¥730 million.

Indonesia

Despite weak sales of mainstay tabletop stoves, sales of built-in hobs (stovetops) and range hoods increased on the back of sales promotion activities. Consequently, sales in Indonesia rose 13.1%, to ¥3,836 million. Due to soaring raw material prices, however, operating income fell 46.4%, to ¥459 million.
