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 — to — — the damage is concentrated below gross profit.
Cash tells a different story than earnings. Operating cash flow was still ¥792.2B (prior ¥592.6B), and cash on the balance sheet rose to ¥2.1T from ¥2.3T. 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 ¥328.4B to ¥302.3B, consistent with heavy write-downs of past acquisitions’ carrying values.
The balance sheet got heavier on leverage. Total liabilities rose to ¥69.9T while owners’ equity fell to —. ROE moved from 12.0% to 11.1%, and the equity ratio from 5.2% to 5.7%. Employee count is 60,138 vs 60,814 a year earlier.
