How we read these numbers
From the notes
No material one-offs extracted from this filing.
Constructive
Sales and operating profit both moved in a healthier direction.
On the income statement, revenue moved from ¥4.7T to ¥5.1T (▲ +9.2%), so the top line did not break. Gross profit only slipped from ¥880.1B to ¥1.0T, while operating profit swung from ¥320.7B to ¥418.2B — the damage is concentrated below gross profit.
Cash tells a different story than earnings. Operating cash flow was still ¥425.2B (prior ¥402.3B), and cash on the balance sheet rose to ¥235.9B from ¥294.5B. 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 ¥2.0T while owners’ equity fell to —. ROE moved from 8.6% to 14.7%, and the equity ratio from 51.6% to 56.9%. Employee count is 302,972 vs 288,145 a year earlier.
Liquidity & leverage
Short-term borrowing levels look more stable year over year.
