The numbers send mixed signals — dig into cash flow and leverage before drawing a conclusion.
On the income statement, revenue moved from — to — (—), so the top line did not break. Gross profit only slipped from ¥399.6B to ¥406.0B, while operating profit swung from ¥37.6B to ¥44.7B — the damage is concentrated below gross profit.
Cash tells a different story than earnings. Operating cash flow was still ¥68.4B (prior ¥82.4B), and cash on the balance sheet rose to ¥233.1B from ¥207.5B. 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.
Goodwill on the balance sheet fell from ¥57.2B to ¥49.8B, consistent with heavy write-downs of past acquisitions’ carrying values.
The balance sheet got heavier on leverage. Total liabilities rose to ¥678.6B while owners’ equity fell to —. ROE moved from 2.8% to 4.3%, and the equity ratio from 37.2% to 36.0%. Employee count is 28,921 vs 29,386 a year earlier.
