No material one-offs extracted from this filing.
Sales and operating profit both moved in a healthier direction.
On the income statement, revenue moved from ¥1.1T to ¥1.3T (▲ +19.4%), so the top line did not break. Gross profit only slipped from ¥224.5B to ¥252.2B, while operating profit swung from ¥74.4B to ¥89.9B — the damage is concentrated below gross profit.
Cash tells a different story than earnings. Operating cash flow was still ¥92.2B (prior ¥37.7B), and cash on the balance sheet rose to ¥253.6B from ¥229.5B. 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.
The balance sheet got heavier on leverage. Total liabilities rose to ¥329.6B while owners’ equity fell to —. ROE moved from 15.0% to 16.8%, and the equity ratio from 55.0% to 54.1%. Employee count is 10,079 vs 9,680 a year earlier.
