The numbers send mixed signals — dig into cash flow and leverage before drawing a conclusion.
On the income statement, revenue moved from ¥4.3T to ¥4.1T (▼ -6.5%), so the top line did not break. Gross profit only slipped from — to —, while operating profit swung from ¥468.9B to ¥437.6B — the damage is concentrated below gross profit.
Cash tells a different story than earnings. Operating cash flow was still ¥652.4B (prior ¥575.3B), and cash on the balance sheet rose to ¥741.3B from ¥941.4B. 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 ¥6.4T while owners’ equity fell to —. ROE moved from 15.7% to 11.7%, and the equity ratio from 31.8% to 35.1%. Employee count is 32,482 vs 31,428 a year earlier.
