The numbers send mixed signals — dig into cash flow and leverage before drawing a conclusion.
On the income statement, revenue moved from ¥2.0T to ¥1.8T (▼ -6.0%), so the top line did not break. Gross profit only slipped from ¥166.6B to ¥199.0B, while operating profit swung from ¥37.1B to ¥60.5B — the damage is concentrated below gross profit.
Cash tells a different story than earnings. Operating cash flow was still ¥39.7B (prior ¥58.9B), and cash on the balance sheet rose to ¥121.7B from ¥88.6B. 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 ¥23.6B to ¥19.6B, consistent with heavy write-downs of past acquisitions’ carrying values.
The balance sheet got heavier on leverage. Total liabilities rose to ¥2.2T while owners’ equity fell to —. ROE moved from 5.1% to 5.7%, and the equity ratio from 28.5% to 24.5%. Employee count is 17,591 vs 18,452 a year earlier.
