(1) Outline of consolidated financial results for the fiscal year under review

During the consolidated fiscal year under review, signs of a recovery continued to spread, but the sense of uncertainty about the global economic outlook increased, given factors such as the recurrent spread of COVID-19, steep rises in the prices of raw materials, the insufficient supply of semiconductors, and geopolitical upside risks in Ukraine. In the United States, employment recovered, and consumer spending also gained strength. In Europe, business was generally weak, albeit with a recovery. In Asia, the Chinese economy continued to recover. However, recovery slowed in India and ASEAN countries due to COVID-19's recurred spread.

In the Japanese economy, corporate capital expenditure, production and exports picked up. However, more time appears necessary for a full-scale economic recovery, as demonstrated by consumer spending which stalled from the turn of the year.

The Group's business environment remained favorable overall, reflecting continued growth in demand in the semiconductor and electronics component industries and a recovery in demand in the automotive sector.

In this operating environment, the Group took steps to control the spread of the coronavirus while also continuing to focus its sales activities on boosting sales of both key products and new businesses in Japan and overseas and working to expand the production/supply systems as well. The Group also strengthened the food wrapping film business through M&A.

As a result, consolidated net sales during the fiscal year under review stood at ¥92,640 million (up 20.5% year on year), operating profit was ¥9,732 million (up 34.8%), ordinary profit amounted to ¥10,129 million (up 44.3%), and profit attributable to owners of parent was ¥6,308 million (up 39.0%).

Consolidated results by segment are as follows.

1) Electronic Devices segment

In the Electronic Devices segment, overall sales were substantially higher than the year-ago level, reflecting strong shipments particularly of input devices, supported by a recovery in demand in the automotive sector. Overall sales for input devices increased attributable to the recovered shipments of mainstay automotive key switches and the strong shipments of touchpads for slim notebook personal computers.

Overall sales for display-related products expanded significantly thanks to the strong shipments of LCD connectors and view/light path control film (VCF).

Sales for component-related products grew sharply, reflecting strong shipments of electronic-part testing connectors and automotive windshield wipers.

As a result, segment sales stood at ¥21,996 million (up 22.0% year on year) and operating profit was ¥1,186 million (up 33.5% year on year).

2) Precision Molding Products segment

In the Precision Molding Products segment, overall sales far surpassed the year-ago level, supported by shipments of semiconductor-related containers and carrier tape-related products which remained favorable. Sales for semiconductor-related containers grew sharply, reflecting strong shipments of 300-mm wafer shipping containers and other products with lively demand in the semiconductor industry in the background.

Sales of office automation equipment increased due to the recovery in shipments of rollers for laser printers, which are mainstay products.

Sales of carrier tape-related products grew because shipments of electronic components for automobiles and smartphones remained strong.

Sales of silicone rubber molded products generally remained flat despite steady shipments of mainstay medical equipment and general molded products.

As a result, segment sales stood at ¥42,147 million (up 23.4% year on year) and operating profit was ¥7,658 million (up 38.8% year on year).

3) Housing & Living Materials segment

In the Housing & Living Materials segment, the Company revised prices and promoted M&A in the extremely difficult market environment for PVC products. Overall sales for the segment rose significantly from the previous fiscal year, supported by a recovery in demand for automotive-related materials.

Sales of packing materials such as wrapping films increased significantly, reflecting firm shipments to supermarkets and the consolidation of Kitche Nista Co., Ltd.

Sales of PVC pipes and related products were sluggish due to weak demand.

Functional compounds rose significantly, reflecting a recovery in demand for those for robot cables and for automobiles and an increase in sales to new customers.

Sales for exterior materials decreased due to weak demand.

Sales for conductive polymer rose, reflecting increased orders for display and automotive electronic components.

As a result, segment sales stood at ¥21,406 million (up 20.7% year on year) and operating profit was ¥485 million (down 9.9% year on year).

4) Others segment

Sales from the construction business grew year on year with increases in orders for projects for building and renovating commercial facilities, particularly in Tokyo and neighboring areas, and projects for finishing the interior of public facilities. New business development-related projects that are not included in any of the above business segments are also included in the Others segment.

As a result, segment sales amounted to ¥7,090 million (up 1.7% year on year) and operating profit was ¥400 million (up 47.4% year on year).

  • (2) Outline of financial position for the consolidated fiscal year under review

    Total assets at the end of the consolidated fiscal year under review amounted to ¥122,577 million (an increase of ¥14,365 million from the end of the previous fiscal year). This result was mainly attributable to increases of ¥3,047 million in notes and accounts receivable - trade, and contract assets, ¥2,045 million in construction in progress, ¥1,931 million in merchandise and finished goods, ¥1,750 million in raw materials and supplies, ¥1,574 million yen in goodwill, ¥1,124 million in machinery, equipment and vehicles (net), and ¥1,051 million yen in buildings and structures (net).

    Liabilities at the end of the consolidated fiscal year under review increased ¥6,705 million from the end of the previous fiscal year, to ¥28,240 million. This result was mainly due to decreases of ¥2,646 million in notes and accounts payable - trade, ¥1,778 million in accounts payable-other, ¥568 million in income taxes payable.

    Net assets at the end of the consolidated fiscal year under review amounted to ¥94,337 million (an increase of ¥7,659 million from the end of the previous fiscal year), mainly reflecting increases of ¥4,413 million in retained earnings and ¥3,557 million in foreign currency translation adjustment.

    Cash and cash equivalents (hereinafter "cash") at the end of the consolidated fiscal year under review decreased ¥100 million from the end of the previous fiscal year, to ¥45,848 million.

    (Cash flows from operating activities)

    Net cash provided by operating activities was ¥9,759 million for the consolidated fiscal year under review, a decrease of ¥882 million from the previous fiscal year. This result was due to factors that contributed to an increase, including the posting of ¥9,413 million in profit before income taxes, ¥3,543 million in depreciation and ¥744 million as an impairment loss and an increase of ¥1,682 million yen in trade payables, and factors that contributed to a decrease, including an increase of ¥2,950 million in inventory assets, ¥2,102 million in income taxes paid and an increase of ¥786 million in notes and accounts receivable - trade.
