1. Qualitative Information Regarding Financial Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020

1. Information Regarding Operating Results

The Group's operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were as followings.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, economic and social activities in various regions of the world were severely restricted due to the global outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19, hereinafter "COVID-19"), leading to a recession. In the business fields of the Group, demand for our mainstay products, mainly automotive products, declined significantly. As a result, revenues decreased by 33.8% year on year to ¥154,773 million. The decrease in revenues due to the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak amounted to approximately ¥48 billion.

Adjusted operating income* for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased by ¥12,787 million year on year, resulting in an adjusted operating loss of ¥7,275 million. This was attributable to a decrease in revenues despite earnings improvement measures including a reduction in fixed costs in accordance with the plan set out at the beginning of the fiscal year looking ahead of the possible influence of the COVID-19 outbreak. The decrease in adjusted operating income due to the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak amounted to approximately ¥13 billion.

In addition, ¥1,971 million was recorded as a gain on business reorganization and others under other operating revenue in line with the transfer of all of the shares of Mitsubishi Hitachi Tool, Ltd. (currently, MOLDINO Tool Engineering, Ltd.) held by the Company to Mitsubishi Materials Corporation on April 1, 2020. However, reflecting the significant impact of the drop in revenues, operating income decreased by ¥11,601 million year on year, resulting in an operating loss of ¥6,412 million. Income before income taxes decreased by ¥11,589 million year on year, resulting in a loss before income taxes of ¥7,072 million, and net income attributable to shareholders of the parent company decreased by ¥6,582 million, resulting in a net loss attributable to shareholders of the parent company of ¥3,340 million.

The Group introduced business management based on Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) with the aim of improving cash flow and capital efficiency, as of the important challenges in the fiscal year 2021 Medium-term Management Plan. In particular, in the current consolidated fiscal year, under circumstances in which the future of the business environment is uncertain due to the COVID-19 outbreak, we believe that it is even more important to secure sufficient liquidity to ensure financial soundness and to steadily promote initiatives that can be effective through our own efforts, regardless of external factors such as demand. For this purpose, the Group has been working to curb capital expenditure through carefully selected investment in core business areas while enhancing operating capital efficiency.

The results by business segment are as followings. Note that revenues for each segment include intersegment revenues. There were no significant changes to the businesses of the Group during the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Specialty Steel Products

Revenues in the Specialty Steel Products segment for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were ¥52,476 million, a decrease of 17.7% as compared with those for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Breaking down the revenues by business, sales of molds and tool steel, among the business of tool steel & roll, decreased year on year, due to a decrease in both domestic and international demand and ongoing inventory adjustments including distribution stock corrections mainly in Japan since the previous fiscal year. Overall sales of rolls dropped compared with the same period of the previous fiscal year reflecting a year-on-year decline in sales of injection molding machine parts and steel-frame joints for construction due to diminished demand despite sales of rolls remaining virtually unchanged year on year.

Among the business of industrial, aircraft & energy materials, sales of industrial materials decreased year on year, both for products related to automobiles and razor blade materials on the back of a decline in demand. Sales of aircraft & energy materials decreased year on year due to a decline in demand for our mainstay aircraft-related materials, mainly in the private sector.

Among alloys for electronic products, sales of organic EL panel-related components grew and sales of clad metals for smartphones and batteries also increased. However, overall sales of alloys for electronic products remained virtually flat year on year due to a decline in sales of products related to automobiles despite a rise in sales related to server applications among semiconductor package components.

Adjusted operating income decreased by ¥696 million to ¥157 million of loss compared with the year ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to a decline in demand for the Company's mainstays including molds and tool steel and industrial materials. In addition, ¥1,971 million was recorded as a gain on business reorganization and others under other operating revenue in line with the transfer of all of the shares of Mitsubishi Hitachi Tool, Ltd. (currently, MOLDINO Tool Engineering, Ltd.) held by the Company to Mitsubishi Materials Corporation on April 1, 2020. As a result, operating income of the segment increased by ¥864 million year on year to ¥1,516 million.

Functional Components and Equipment

Revenues in the Functional Components and Equipment segment for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were ¥40,170 million, a decrease of 51.8% year on year.

Breaking down the revenues by business, among casting components for automobiles, demand for cast iron products plummeted due to the suspension of operations by the Company's major customers in various parts of the world as a result of the COVID- 19 outbreak. For this reason, sales of casting components for automobiles decreased year on year both in North America and Asia. Sales of heat-resistant exhaust casting components also saw a year-on-year decrease owning to diminished demand. It has been determined to withdraw from the aluminum wheels business. Therefore, the termination of production is progressing as planned towards the end of September 2020. As a result, overall sales of casting components for automobiles decreased year on year.

Among piping components, sales of semiconductor manufacturing equipment increased year on year due to the recovery of capital investment demand. Sales of pipe fittings, the Company's mainstay products, decreased year on year reflecting a decline in the number of housing starts in both domestic and international markets. As a result, overall sales of piping components decreased year on year.

Adjusted operating income decreased by ¥8,995 million year on year, resulting in an adjusted operating loss of ¥7,000 million, due to a decrease in revenues from the automotive casting components business, which is the segment's core business. Operating loss was ¥7,308 million, a decrease of ¥9,023 million from the same period last year.

Magnetic Materials and Applications / Power Electronics

Revenues in the Magnetic Materials and Applications / Power Electronics segment for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were ¥22,067 million, a decrease of 27.9% year on year.

Breaking down the revenues by business, sales of rare earth magnets among magnetic materials and applications decreased year on year. This was due to a decline in demand for various manufacturing equipment and industrial machinery as well as electronics-related products in the industrial equipment-related business in addition to a downturn in demand for automotive electronic components. Sales of ferrite magnets decreased year on year due to a decrease in automotive electronic components. As a result, overall sales of magnetic materials and applications decreased year on year.

Among power electronics materials, sales of soft magnetic materials and their applied products decreased year on year due to a decline in demand for amorphous metals for transformers, despite an increase in demand related to telecommunications such as server equipment. Meanwhile, sales of ceramic components remained virtually unchanged year on year due to a decrease in demand for use in telecommunications equipment and automotive electronic components, despite an increase in demand for use in medical equipment. As a result, sales of power electronics materials as a whole decreased from the same period last year. Adjusted operating loss was ¥478 million, a decrease of ¥265 million year on year, due to a decrease in demand for magnetic materials and applications. Operating loss was ¥503 million, a decrease of ¥260 million compared with the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Wires, Cables, and Related Products

Revenues in the Wires, Cables, and Related Products segment for the three months ended June 30, 2020, were ¥39,874 million, a decrease of 28.8% year on year.

Breaking down the revenues by business, sales of wires and cables for medical use increased year on year reflecting an increase in demand for cables. Sales of electronic wires increased year on year due to an increase in demand related to base stations for the fifth generation technology standard for cellular networks (5G) in addition to an increase in demand for FA / robots. Meanwhile, sales of wires and cables for rolling stock decreased year on year as a result of diminished demand both in domestic and international markets. Sales of magnet wires decreased year on year due to a decrease in demand mainly for automotive applications. As a result, overall sales of wires, cables, and related products decreased year on year.

Demand for automotive components decreased significantly due to the suspension of operations by the Company's major customers in various parts of the world as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak. For this reason, sales of automotive components, including both automotive electronic components and brake hoses, decreased year on year.

Adjusted operating loss was ¥510 million, a decrease of ¥2,357 million, as compared with the three months ended June 30, 2019, led in part by a decline in demand for the wires, cables, and automotive components. Operating loss of the segment was ¥327 million, a decrease of ¥2,190 million year on year for the same period.

1. Analysis of Financial Condition
2. 1. Assets, liabilities, and equity
      The analysis of changes in the Group's condensed interim consolidated statement of financial position as of the end of the period ended June 30, 2020, is as follows:

Current assets were ¥412,801 million, an increase of ¥6,682 million compared with the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.

Non-current assets were ¥552,049 million, a decrease of ¥19,598 million compared with the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. Investments accounted for using the equity method decreased by ¥17,731 million.

(currently, MOLDINO Tool Engineering, Ltd.) held by the Company on April 1, 2020.
      Total liabilities were ¥451,369 million, a decrease of ¥3,544 million compared with the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. This was mainly attributable to an increase of ¥33,850 million in short-term debt, despite decreases of ¥19,610 million and ¥6,298 million in trade payables and the current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt, respectively. Total equity was ¥513,481 million, a decrease of ¥9,372 million compared with the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
