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 ¥144.6B to ¥159.6B, while operating profit swung from ¥64.7B to ¥67.9B — the damage is concentrated below gross profit.
Cash tells a different story than earnings. Operating cash flow was still ¥65.3B (prior ¥51.6B), and cash on the balance sheet rose to ¥86.7B from ¥76.6B. 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 ¥18.0B to ¥16.8B, consistent with heavy write-downs of past acquisitions’ carrying values.
The balance sheet got heavier on leverage. Total liabilities rose to ¥169.9B while owners’ equity fell to —. ROE moved from 9.3% to 10.4%, and the equity ratio from 73.3% to 73.3%. Employee count is 4,088 vs 3,873 a year earlier.
Compare earnings and operating cash flow for earnings quality.
Short-term borrowings jumped from ¥22.0M to ¥45.0M; watch refinancing and working-capital pressure even with a larger cash balance.
Capital structure held relatively steady.
