* In comparison with the FY2018 average as 100

  • Sales: Net sales increased 21.1% from the previous year due mainly to the depreciation of the yen and the rise in aluminum prices. Sales weight increased 2.7%, reflecting the production increase by car manufacturers in the second half.
  • Operating/Recurring income: Profits in the first half were affected by the decrease in sales weight due to confusion of supply networks caused by the shortage of semiconductors and the zero-COVID policy in China, and the increase in production costs due to the rise in energy costs, etc. In the second half, the sales weight recovered in all segments. Also, with the effect of the efforts to improve productivity, income returned to black on a full-year basis.
  • Net income: The loss in the first half could not be fully covered and a loss was recorded on a full-year basis. However, profit was achieved on a quarterly basis in the second half.

Factors behind Changes in Consolidated Results

Sales weight recovered in the second half to secure a surplus for the full year. Although the worsening of performance associated with high aluminum prices in the first half eased, production costs rose due to soaring energy and labor costs.

Global Sales in Weight

4Q maintained the level above 1H despite production reduction by some customers.

From FY23 onward, sales are expected to increase and exceed the level before COVID (FY2018) in FY2025 due to recovery in sales weight and orders received for new products.
