The numbers send mixed signals — dig into cash flow and leverage before drawing a conclusion.
On the income statement, revenue moved from ¥10.3T to ¥8.9T (▼ -14.0%), so the top line did not break. Gross profit only slipped from ¥1.9T to ¥1.6T, while operating profit swung from ¥421.0B to ¥423.0B — the damage is concentrated below gross profit.
Cash tells a different story than earnings. Operating cash flow was still ¥666.7B (prior ¥876.5B), and cash on the balance sheet rose to ¥426.1B from ¥1.3T. 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 ¥2.3T to ¥2.1T, consistent with heavy write-downs of past acquisitions’ carrying values.
The balance sheet got heavier on leverage. Total liabilities rose to ¥5.5T while owners’ equity fell to —. ROE moved from 4.5% to 7.6%, and the equity ratio from 35.4% to 39.6%. Employee count is 35,967 vs 62,012 a year earlier.
