1. Qualitative information on the financial results for the period under review

(1) Operating results

The world economy during the six months ended September 30, 2023 picked up moderately overall, as the normalization of economic activities progressed after the COVID-19 pandemic receded. However, the outlook still remained uncertain due mainly to price rises, ongoing monetary tightening overseas, China's economic slowdown, and the prolonged Russian-Ukrainian problem.

Amid such conditions, Toshiba Tec Corporation (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Group") have been pursuing the Basic Policy of the FY23-25Mid-term Business Plan, "To become a global top solutions partner by generating new value through co-creation with the aim of contributing to the resolution of social issues." Under the basic policy, the Group has focused its energy on carrying out various measures toward sustainable growth. At the same time, the Group has strived to contribute to the resolution of social issues by executing business transformation and corporate transformation.

In the six months ended September 30, 2023, net sales were ¥263,646 million (up 8% year on year) due mainly to increased sales of POS systems for the domestic market and multifunction peripherals (MFPs), and the impact of foreign exchange rates. On the profit front, despite a deterioration in profit and loss of POS systems for the overseas markets, profitability of MFPs improved significantly, while profitability of POS systems for the domestic market improved to a lesser extent, resulting in operating profit of ¥5,910 million (down 1% year on year) and ordinary profit of ¥3,663 million (up 32% year on year). Profit attributable to owners of parent was ¥2,163 million (compared with loss attributable to owners of parent of ¥6,370 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year) due to the elimination of a temporary negative impact on profit from the provision for loss on litigation recorded under extraordinary losses in the same period of the previous fiscal year.

As for the interim dividend, as a result of comprehensive consideration of the above-mentioned financial results, business environment, and other factors, the Company will pay an interim dividend of ¥20 per share, as forecasted at the time of the announcement of financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 on May 11, 2023.

Results of reportable segments for the six months ended September 30, 2023 were as follows.

Retail Solutions Business Group

The Retail Solutions Business Group handles POS systems for domestic and overseas markets, auto ID systems for domestic market, and related products. Amid a severe business environment in which intensifying competition with peers continues, the business group has worked on expanding its solution business through the global retail platform "ELERA" and strategic partnership, boosting recurring revenue business, and investing in retail innovation to expand new businesses (strengthening digital human resources, ELERA Evolution, enhancing co-creation opportunities, and strengthening partner collaboration).

Sales of POS systems for the domestic market increased due to efforts to expand sales mainly of self- checkout systems, payment terminals, and smart receipts, as well as efforts to revise selling prices, despite continued harsh conditions reflecting soaring raw material prices, rising prices, and other factors.

Sales of POS systems for overseas markets declined due mainly to a decrease in sales of hardware and software in the United States, primarily to major customers, and a decrease in sales of hardware in Europe, and other factors.

Sales of auto ID systems for the domestic market fell primarily due to a decline in the number of units sold of barcode printers.

As a result, net sales of the Retail Solutions Business Group were ¥149,637 million (up 3% year on year). Operating profit of the business group was ¥899 million (down 82% year on year), reflecting the deterioration in profit and loss in overseas markets due to a decrease in sales of POS systems and an increase in research expenses, etc. for future growth despite the improved profitability of POS systems for the domestic market.

Workplace Solutions Business Group

The Workplace Solutions Business Group handles multifunction peripherals (MFPs) for domestic and overseas markets, auto ID systems for overseas markets, inkjet heads for domestic and overseas markets, and related products. Amid a severe business environment in which the declining printing volume due to post-COVID-19 work style reforms and office DX promotion and intensifying competition with peers continue, the business group focused on increasing basic earnings power of core business. At the same time, the business group worked on developing the auto ID business, document and data solutions, and customer support business in order to expand business in growth areas.

Sales of MFPs increased due to the impact of foreign exchange rates in addition to strong sales in the Americas, Europe, and other regions, reflecting a recovery from product supply disruptions and increased selling prices.

Sales of auto ID systems for overseas markets declined as a result of decreased sales in the Americas, Europe, Asia, and other overseas regions.

Sales of inkjet heads decreased due mainly to decreased sales to overseas customers.

As a result, net sales in the Workplace Solutions Business Group were ¥116,365 million (up 16% year on year). Operating profit for the business group soared to ¥5,010 million (up 361% year on year) due to the increase in net sales resulting from recovery from product supply disruptions, the increased selling prices and other factors and effects of structural reform and structural transformation implemented so far, etc.

(Note) An auto ID system is a system that uses hardware and software devices to recognize and manage data content by automatically scanning barcode and RFID tag data.

  1. Financial condition
    1. Analysis of financial condition

Assets at the end of the second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024 increased by ¥16,062 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥326,754 million. This was mainly because notes and accounts receivable - trade, and contract assets, merchandise and finished goods, raw materials and supplies, and "Other" in current assets increased by ¥1,265 million, ¥3,229 million, ¥1,294 million, and ¥4,512 million respectively, and property, plant and equipment in non-current assets and "Other" in investments and other assets increased by ¥1,390 million and ¥4,651 million, respectively, although work in process declined by ¥1,059 million.

Liabilities increased by ¥19,289 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥227,775 million. This was mainly because notes and accounts payable - trade, current portion of long-term borrowings, and "Other" in current liabilities increased by ¥5,305 million, ¥2,900 million, and ¥4,116 million, respectively, and long- term borrowings in non-current liabilities increased by ¥6,172 million.

Net assets decreased by ¥3,227 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥98,978 million. This was primarily due to a decrease in retained earnings owing to the payment of dividends of ¥1,106 million and a decrease due to additional purchase of treasury shares of ¥8,684 million, although retained earnings increased owing to the recording of profit attributable to owners of parent of ¥2,163 million, and foreign currency translation adjustment increased by ¥4,154 million.

2) Status of cash flows

An overview of cash flows for the six months ended September 30, 2023 is as follows.

Net cash provided by operating activities was ¥6,774 million (compared with an outflow of ¥8,112 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year), reflecting profit before income taxes of ¥3,304 million, depreciation and amortization of ¥8,352 million, and a decrease in trade receivables of ¥6,690 million, partly offset by a decrease in trade payables of ¥2,589 million, payments for loss on litigation of ¥3,400 million, and income taxes paid of ¥3,534 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was ¥6,364 million (compared with an outflow of ¥5,682 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year), reflecting outlays for purchase of property, plant and equipment and

3

intangible assets, purchase of investment securities, and other outflows.

As a result of the above, free cash flow amounted to an inflow of ¥410 million (compared with an outflow of ¥13,795 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year).

Net cash used in financing activities was ¥3,885 million (compared with an outflow of ¥ 4,114 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year), reflecting purchase of treasury shares of ¥8,742 million, repayments of finance lease liabilities of ¥2,287 million, and dividends paid of ¥1,106 million, partly offset by proceeds from long-term borrowings of ¥9,584 million.

As a result of the above, the balance of Group funding at the end of the second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024 (cash and cash equivalents in the quarterly consolidated statement of cash flows) increased by ¥776 million from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥44,591 million.

Net sales of the Retail Solutions Business Group remain unchanged, while those of the Workplace Solutions Business Group have been revised upward due mainly to the impact of exchange rates. Operating profit, ordinary profit, and profit attributable to owners of parent of the Group remain unchanged from the previously announced forecast. Meanwhile, consolidated operating profit of the Retail Solutions Business Group has been revised downward mainly due to uncertain overseas market conditions, whereas that of the Workplace Solutions Business Group has been revised upward in line with increased net sales. Based on these factors, we have revised our consolidated financial results forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024 as stated above. The reference exchange rates used in the consolidated financial results forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024 are ¥140.78 to the US dollar and ¥151.24 to the euro. Basic earnings per share have been calculated taking into account the effect of the purchase of treasury shares during the six months ended September 30, 2023.

  • Financial results forecasts are based on information currently available to the Company and certain assumptions deemed reasonable, and are not intended to be the Company's guarantee that they will be achieved. Actual results may significantly vary due to a variety of factors.
