Net sales steadily increased on a quarterly basis.

•

Due in part to exchange rate effects, net sales increased YoY.

Operating profit was influenced by a temporary impact of approximately 1.0 billion yen in 4Q, due to an increase in unrealized inventory profits related to production preparation.

Net income decreased YoY, mainly due to the recognition of impairment losses.

Operating Profit Analysis (YoY)

Material costs were on an upward trend, but marginal profit increased, mainly due to higher sales, lower outsourcing costs, and improvement initiatives.
The increase in fixed costs were mainly due to higher personnel costs, utilities costs and advertising expenses.
Expenses increased due to one-off factors, including temporary costs for a new plant in North America, restructuring at a plant in Thailand and unrealized profit in inventory.
