Notice Regarding the Recognition of Adjustments to Income Taxes and Revisions to the Earnings Forecast for the Second Quarter (Interim Period) and Full Fiscal Year Ending March 2027

For the interim period of the fiscal year ending March 2027, the forecasts for net sales and operating profit were revised downward, while ordinary profit was changed to a loss forecast. Interim net profit, however, was revised substantially upward due to gains on the sale of investment securities and other factors. For the full year, the forecasts for net sales, operating profit and ordinary profit remain unchanged, while net profit was left undecided because restructuring costs at overseas subsidiaries cannot be estimated.

Reason for the revision

For the interim period, sales of drive system products for the semiconductor-related equipment market exceeded plan, while sales of automotive motor cores and other products affected by the slowdown in EVs fell below plan. Operating profit declined in line with the decrease in net sales, while ordinary profit is expected to become an ordinary loss due in part to the recognition of a ¥60 million equity-method investment loss. Despite recognizing a ¥309 million deferred income tax adjustment, interim net profit is expected to substantially exceed plan due to gains of ¥979 million on the sale of investment securities and other factors. Full-year net profit remains undecided because the cost impact varies significantly depending on which of the multiple options for fundamental restructuring of overseas subsidiaries is pursued, making it difficult to calculate a reasonable estimate of the impact.

The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

For the interim period, sales of drive system products for the semiconductor-related equipment market exceeded plan, but sales of automotive motor cores and other products affected by the slowdown in EVs fell below plan, resulting in lower net sales and operating profit. Ordinary profit declined due to the decrease in operating profit and the recognition of a ¥60 million equity-method investment loss. Despite recognizing a ¥309 million deferred income tax adjustment, interim net profit exceeded plan due mainly to the recognition of a ¥979 million gain on the sale of investment securities. Full-year net profit was left undecided because the company is considering multiple options for fundamental restructuring of its overseas subsidiaries, making it difficult to calculate the impact of the associated costs.
