The numbers send mixed signals — dig into cash flow and leverage before drawing a conclusion.
On the income statement, revenue moved from ¥2.2T to ¥2.1T (▼ -3.0%), so the top line did not break. Gross profit only slipped from ¥231.1B to ¥330.1B, while operating profit swung from ¥120.2B to ¥188.0B — the damage is concentrated below gross profit.
Cash tells a different story than earnings. Operating cash flow was still ¥147.3B (prior -¥13.8B), and cash on the balance sheet rose to ¥273.0B from ¥296.0B. When profits collapse but operating cash stays positive, read the notes for impairments and other non-cash charges before assuming the business stopped generating cash.
The balance sheet got heavier on leverage. Total liabilities rose to ¥1.7T while owners’ equity fell to —. ROE moved from 13.8% to 18.7%, and the equity ratio from 35.7% to 34.9%. Employee count is 18,503 vs 16,382 a year earlier.
