Review of Operations
1. Review of Operations
In this consolidated cumulative third quarter, it has gradually
risen on growing expectations of the United States economic
recovery due to a rising trend of capital investment and personal
consumption. The European financial market, momentum of recovery
and slow improvement of debt problem has become a weak standstill.
Meanwhile, emerging markets including China and South-East Asian
countries has been under an uncertain condition because of concerns
over slowdown in growth and frequent political unrest.
In the Japanese economy, market has generally recovered due to
improvement of income environment by turnaround of corporate
performance, depreciation of the yen and rising stock prices led by
economic and fiscal policy of 'Abenomics'. However, the economic
condition has still been uncertain because of reverse effect caused
by a last-minute surge in demand due to the consumption tax hike,
slowdown growth of export due to a stagnation of emerging markets
and a high level price of raw materials from yen depreciation.
Under the uncertain market condition, the MARUWA Group's
business results during this quarter has stayed firm especially in
ceramic products for power modules related to energy-savings and
environment which are one of our differentiated products in the
ceramic components division. On the other hand, in the lighting
equipment division, the plans of construction period will be
delayed after the fiscal year and it seems to be difficult to
achieve the prior forecast. This is because of soaring of personnel
expense and material price due to the increase of demand for
construction (i.g. reconstruction demand for Tohoku and facility
maintenance for Tokyo Olympics).
The forecast of this fiscal year, however, remains unchanged
from the prior forecast because it is expected to continue to
steadily increase in the ceramic components division.
As a result, our consolidated sales were 24,227 million yen
(increase 0.3% year on year). Our operating income was 2,002
million yen (decrease 13.8% year on year). Ordinary profit was
2,494 million yen (decrease 6.9% year on year). Net income was
1,390 million yen (decrease 26.4% year on year).
2.Operating Results by Business Division
The Ceramic Components Division
The total sales for this business segment was 16,328 million yen
(increase 2.9% year on year).
Markets related to energy-saving and environment are still brisk
and the sales of ceramic products for HEV and LED remained
strong.
About the profit side, we perform reviews of stock for the
profitability improvement and the production facility with business
withdrawal or a decrease in production of the communication
terminal business in the main customer. Operating income was 2,748
million yen (decrease 7.1% year on year).
Lighting Equipment Division
The total sales for this business segment was 7,900 million yen
(decrease 4.6% year on year).
We released new LED road lights and pushed forward active sales
activities, but the high value-added illumination of YAMAGIWA
decreased by having been behind the original order plan.
The profit, we push forward constitution reinforcement of
YAMAGIWA and result comes out smoothly. An operating loss was 72
million yen.
We will make efforts in the rebuilding of the sales strategy
which kept the strength of development, release and the product of
the new illumination apparatus using ceramic LED module and them
which let a ceramic technology cultivated in our group fuse alive
in future.
