The actual segment-level business ROA (ROIC) for the fiscal year ending March 2025 and the segment-level business ROA targets for the fiscal year ending March 2027 are as follows.」

  3. FY2024RaisedAnnual report

    「Under the new medium-term management plan, we set targets for company-wide ROIC and segment-level business ROA (ROIC), which have a stronger correlation with TVA (business ROA), our Group's original value-added metric, and will manage operations toward achieving the targeted level of return on capital. Company-wide ROIC for the current consolidated fiscal year was 5.3% (<WACC 7.0%), and we aim for at least 8% in the fiscal year ending March 2027 and at least 12% over the long term.」

  4. FY2023SoftenedAnnual report

    「We aimed to build the capabilities to achieve ROE of at least 14% under the 3-year medium-term plan ending in the fiscal year ending March 2024, while promoting our growth strategy across the entire Group and selectively allocating capital expenditure through strengthened investment-efficiency management. However, partly because the demand environment changed sharply, the outlook for the fiscal year ending March 2024 is 9.8%.」

  6. FY2021AdvancedAnnual report

    「Our Group uses TVA (TDK Value Added), an original value-added metric that compares profit after interest and taxes with the minimum required return on the operating assets of each business, namely the cost of shareholders' equity. Using a logic tree linked to TVA, we evaluate the profitability of each business, the efficiency of business assets, and the ability to generate cash, while breaking these factors down into KPIs aligned with operational initiatives and characteristics for monitoring. Through this framework, we aim to promote our growth strategy across the entire Group and, by strengthening investment-efficiency management, selectively allocate capital expenditure while building the capabilities to achieve ROE of at least 14% under the 3-year medium-term plan ending in the fiscal year ending March 2024.」

    The framework linking management using TVA, logic trees, and KPIs to the selective allocation of capital expenditure under the new medium-term plan, with a target ROE of at least 14% for the fiscal year ending March 2024, was set out in concrete terms.

Using a logic tree linked to TVA, we evaluate the profitability of each business, the efficiency of business assets, and the ability to generate cash, while breaking these factors down into KPIs aligned with operational initiatives and characteristics for monitoring.」
