「During the third quarter of the current consolidated cumulative period, sales of inverter components for electric vehicles and molds for producing these components increased in response to rising demand for electric vehicles.」

「During the first quarter of the current consolidated cumulative period, automobile production had begun to recover, but inventories in the market were consumed ahead of demand, causing sales of insert-molded products installed in various automotive sensors to remain sluggish.」

「As a result, during the third quarter of the current consolidated cumulative period, sales of insert-molded products for various automotive sensors declined. Meanwhile, electric vehicle unit sales are increasing at an accelerating pace, and sales of components for compressors and inverters for electric vehicles and other products are growing.」

「As a result, sales of insert-molded products for various automotive sensors and metal-stamped products for electronic equipment declined in the Precision Equipment-related segment. Meanwhile, sales of molds and metal-processing components for preparations for mass production of automotive molded products from the third quarter onward increased.」

「However, during the first quarter of the current consolidated cumulative period, the distribution of automotive parts was disrupted by semiconductor shortages and urban lockdowns in China, forcing automakers to adjust production. As a result, sales of insert-molded products for various automotive sensors in the Precision Equipment-related segment remained sluggish.」

「During the consolidated fiscal year, amid production restraints by automakers due to COVID-19 and semiconductor supply shortages, sales increased for automotive molded products, including insert-molded products for various pressure sensors and components for electric compressors incorporated into air-conditioning systems.」

「As economies around the world were recovering and automotive demand was trending upward, sales of vehicle-mounted insert-molded products consequently increased from the same quarter of the previous year.」

「However, global automotive demand increased as economies in various countries recovered, and sales of vehicle-mounted insert-molded products consequently increased from the same quarter of the previous year.」

「During the consolidated fiscal year, sales increased for vehicle-mounted insert-molded products, including key sensor components for detecting automotive fuel injection pressure, brake pressure and solar radiation, and cases for engine control units that electronically control fuel supply. The plant opened in Chitose, Hokkaido, in 2016 also steadily increased its production volume.」

「In precision machinery-related operations, sales of automotive insert-molded products, including key sensor components, increased as automotive sales recovered rapidly in China and the United States.」

「Although sales of key components for automotive sensors declined in the first quarter due to the spread of COVID-19, demand began to recover in the second quarter, and operations had largely returned to normal by the end of the first six months of the current fiscal year.」

「During the consolidated fiscal year, we were able to steadily increase sales of vehicle-mounted insert-molded products, including key sensor components for detecting automotive fuel injection pressure, brake pressure and solar radiation, and cases for engine control units that electronically control fuel supply.」

「In precision machinery-related operations, sales of insert-molded products remained steady in response to increased demand for electrical components installed in automobiles, including key sensor components and engine control unit cases.」
