Development and Expanded Sales of Next-Generation Products

「売上は中国ではエアーサスペンション部品の伸長により業績は回復基調となりました」

「Based on the 10th Medium-Term Management Plan, our group is promoting production preparations for robot components as its fifth business pillar, in addition to pulleys, transmission components, xEV components and motor cores.」

「We regard the robot-component business as the business pillar to follow pulleys and will promote the business portfolio set out in the Tenth Medium-Term Management Plan.」

「The Group has developed its business around four pillars: pulleys, transmission components, xEV components and motor-core components. During the interim consolidated accounting period under review, pulley sales declined amid weak automobile sales in Thailand and the expansion of electric vehicles in China, while growth in domestic transmission components and other factors limited the decline in net sales to a slight decrease both year on year and against the forecast.」

「Although sales declined year on year because of sluggish domestic automobile sales in Thailand, the expansion of transmission components and xEV components in Japan and growth in orders for non-pulley products in China resulted in higher net sales year on year, while operating income and ordinary income increased.」

「The Group has developed its business around four pillars: pulleys, transmission components, xEV components and motor-core components. During the consolidated accounting period under review, net sales and profit increased year on year, driven by the expansion of domestic transmission components and xEV components and improved productivity in these businesses.」

「To build a business pillar to follow pulleys, we will treat the development and sales expansion of next-generation and subsequent products, including transmission components and xEV components, as our top management priority.」

「In this environment, the Group has been implementing measures including reorganising its production system to improve the profitability of its core pulleys and transmission components, and began producing motor cores for xEV components at Keynext, a joint venture established the year before last.」

「In this environment, the Group has been implementing improvement initiatives aimed at increasing the profitability of its core transmission components and pulleys, and began producing xEV components (motor cores) at Keynext, a joint venture established last year.」

「In this environment, the Group has been implementing improvement initiatives aimed at increasing the profitability of its core transmission components and pulleys, preparing a system to increase production of xEV components, and preparing for production in the motor-core business.」

「Under the Eighth Medium-Term Management Plan (April 2020 to the fiscal year ending March 2023), the Group considers expanding sales of and securing profitability for next-generation products, including transmission components and xEV components, to be its top management priority.」

「The Group has set the establishment of the next-generation product business as its annual target and has been preparing to increase production capacity for transmission components and electric components.」

「In addition, centred on the Advanced Development Office established in March 2021, we will strongly promote the development and commercialisation of next-generation products, including core components for electric vehicles.」

「Through the acquisition of Tsumura Manufacturing as a wholly owned subsidiary, we aim to deepen our metal forming technologies, establish a small-lot production system, develop and expand sales of new products such as electric components for automobiles, for which growth is expected, and achieve sustainable growth and development.」

「We will further apply our proprietary rotary forming and press thickening technologies to steel sheet materials, while conducting research into commercialising products made from materials other than steel sheet, such as stainless steel, aluminium and titanium, with the aim of entering new business fields and markets.」

「In fiscal 2016, the final year of the Sixth Medium-Term Management Plan, we will pursue the following three management policies in developing our business to build our brand as a rare manufacturing company centred on metal forming technology. 1.
