The numbers send mixed signals — dig into cash flow and leverage before drawing a conclusion.
On the income statement, revenue moved from — to — (—), so the top line did not break. Gross profit only slipped from — to —, while operating profit swung from ¥166.7B to ¥207.3B — the damage is concentrated below gross profit.
Cash tells a different story than earnings. Operating cash flow was still ¥439.0B (prior -¥454.1B), and cash on the balance sheet rose to ¥3.8T from ¥3.7T. 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 ¥36.0T while owners’ equity fell to —. ROE moved from 9.8% to 10.3%, and the equity ratio from 4.6% to 4.6%. Employee count is 14,984 vs 14,783 a year earlier.
