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 ¥473.9B to ¥485.4B, while operating profit swung from ¥117.7B to ¥125.5B — the damage is concentrated below gross profit.
Cash tells a different story than earnings. Operating cash flow was still ¥148.9B (prior ¥144.4B), and cash on the balance sheet rose to ¥145.0B from ¥136.0B. 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 ¥582.7B while owners’ equity fell to ¥988.6B. ROE moved from 9.5% to 9.4%, and the equity ratio from 59.2% to 62.9%. Employee count is 19,432 vs 19,967 a year earlier.
