Looking at sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 by product group, there has been a significant decline in Energy Solutions, yet Digital Information Equipment, Business Solutions, and LCDs have helped bring about a total increase of 11.8 billion yen from the same period last year.
As for operating income, Electronic Devices put us in the red, but Digital Information Equipment and LCDs put us back in the black, resulting in an overall earnings increase of 1.6 billion yen from the same period last year.
Other Income (Expenses)
For the first quarter of fiscal 2014, based on the progress of immediate civil lawsuits for TFT LCDs, we have revised some of the provisions from previous years, and recorded “reversal of provision for loss on litigation” as other income. On the other hand, “settlement” for expenses related to structural reform of the thin-film solar cell business in Europe was recorded as other expenses.
Consolidated Balance Sheets
Due to seasonal influences, there was an increase in inventory and a decrease in cash and time deposits for the first quarter. Net assets was 209.0 billion yen, increasing 1.8 billion yen from the end of March 2014, and the equity ratio improved from 8.9% to 9.4%, due to factors such as a decrease in remeasurements of defined benefit plans.
Transition of Interest-bearing Debt
Interest-bearing debt was 1,092.1 billion yen at the end of June 2014, decreased 1.3 billion yen from the end of March 2014. The ratio vs. monthly sales has risen from 4.48 months to 5.29 months, due to sales decrease from seasonal fluctuations.
Net interest-bearing debt, which is interest-bearing debt minus cash and time deposits, increased from 713.9 billion yen to the 733.2 billion yen.
We will continue to work to optimize inventory and reduce noncurrent assets to cut back on interest-bearing debt.
