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 ¥451.0B to ¥466.2B (▲ +3.4%), so the top line did not break. Gross profit only slipped from ¥172.3B to ¥166.6B, while operating profit swung from ¥65.1B to ¥51.7B — the damage is concentrated below gross profit.
Cash tells a different story than earnings. Operating cash flow was still ¥63.8B (prior ¥87.0B), and cash on the balance sheet rose to ¥472.8B from ¥530.3B. 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 ¥1.7B to ¥1.5B, consistent with heavy write-downs of past acquisitions’ carrying values.
The balance sheet got heavier on leverage. Total liabilities rose to ¥68.7B while owners’ equity fell to —. ROE moved from 9.1% to 3.9%, and the equity ratio from 92.0% to 92.5%. Employee count is 10,242 vs 10,130 a year earlier.
