Now, let's proceed according to the presentation materials. Please turn to the next page.

Today's presentation will focus on three main points.

The first point is the performance for FY2023. Last year, declines in sales and profits in the IAB and DMB businesses were main factors behind the significant reductions in both net sales and profit. On the other hand, the HCB and SSB businesses captured expanding business opportunities and achieved significant increases in both sales and profit.

The second point is the plan for FY2024. In the business environment, a gradual recovery in demand is expected from H2 of the year in the IAB and DMB businesses. Meanwhile, the HCB, SSB, and DSB businesses are expected to continue in a robust business environment.

Taking this business environment into account, we plan for an overall increase in net sales and profit. As part of our personnel and payroll cost restructuring, we have incorporated approximately JPY28 billion in non-operating expenses for one-time costs. Additionally, the annual dividend forecast will remain the same as last year, at JPY104.

Lastly, I will discuss the structural reform program "NEXT 2025." I will share our future outlook and the initiatives aimed at re-growth.

Now, let me turn it over to Mr. Takeda to explain the performance for FY2023.

First, let's look at the full-year performance for FY2023. Please focus on the shaded area in the middle of the table.

Net sales were JPY818.8 billion, gross profit was JPY346.5 billion, gross profit margin was 42.3%, and operating profit was JPY34.3 billion. Net income attributable to OMRON shareholders was JPY8.1 billion, which includes a loss of JPY12 billion recorded due to the revaluation associated with the additional acquisition of shares in JMDC.

Compared to our previous forecast, there was significant improvement in gross profit margin and efficiency in fixed costs, resulting in operating profit substantially exceeding our expectations.

Next, let's review the performance by business segment.

First, the IAB business. While net sales were stable during Q1 due to the backlog of orders, they declined from Q2 onwards as capital investment demand slowed, resulting in a 19% decrease YoY to JPY393.6 billion. Operating profit dropped by 75% to JPY21.5 billion, impacted by the decrease in net sales and the decline in gross profit margin.

For the HCB business, net sales increased by 5.3% to JPY149.7 billion, driven by strong demand for blood pressure monitors in Europe and nebulizers in China. Operating profit increased by 15.3% to JPY18.5 billion, thanks to improvements in product mix and reductions in variable costs.

In the SSB business, there was significant growth in net sales and profit, supported by the recovery in demand for the railway business and seizing market opportunities in the energy solutions business. Sales increased by 32% YoY to JPY141.6 billion, and operating profit increased by 87.2% to JPY14 billion.

For the DMB business, net sales declined by 17.6% to JPY114.4 billion, mainly due to stagnant demand from the consumer electronics sector. Operating profit fell by 79.7% to JPY3.1 billion, affected by the decrease in sales and worsening fixed cost ratios.

Finally, the DSB business. We have started accounting for the performance of JMDC and related consolidation costs from H2 of the year. It is worth noting that JMDC achieved significant increases in sales and profit for the full year.

Here is the operating profit step chart. It shows the operating profit for FY2022 and FY2023, as well as the factors contributing to the changes. I will explain from the left.

Firstly, the decrease in gross profit was due to reduced net sales. While the HCB and SSB businesses saw an increase in net sales, the decline in net sales from the IAB and DMB businesses resulted in a total profit decrease of JPY36.6 billion for the Company.

Next, the decline in gross profit margin. Efforts to reduce logistics costs and lower material costs created a profit of JPY14.7 billion. However, changes in the sales composition ratio of the businesses, impacts from area and product mix in the IAB business, and an increase in allowance for inventory resulted in an overall profit decrease of JPY24.2 billion.

Lastly, the increase in fixed costs. Primarily due to the impact of inflation, personnel expenses in SG&A and development costs increased by JPY8.3 billion, leading to a total negative impact of JPY10.1 billion.

That concludes our report on the performance for FY2023.

First, let's discuss our recognition of the business environment for FY2024.

In the IAB business, we anticipate a gradual recovery starting from H2 of the year, especially in the digital industry. I will provide more details on this later.

For the HCB business, we expect the blood pressure monitor market to experience gradual growth globally, particularly in China and other Asian regions.

In the SSB business, we foresee a continuation of the generally favorable business environment. Particularly, we expect ongoing investments in the residential and industrial sectors within the renewable energy market.

Regarding the DMB business, similar to the IAB business, we anticipate a gradual improvement starting from H2 of the year.

For the DSB business, JMDC is expected to continue thriving, especially in the health big data sector. The utilization of medical data is projected to expand further, primarily within the pharmaceutical, life insurance, and general insurance industries.

payments associated with "optimizing the number of personnel and capabilities" in structural reforms

Next, I will explain the performance plan for this fiscal year. Please focus on the shaded area in the center.

Net sales are projected at JPY825 billion, gross profit at JPY368.5 billion, operating profit at JPY49 billion, and net income attributable to OMRON shareholders at JPY8.5 billion.

While net sales are expected to remain at the same level as the previous fiscal year, we plan for a 42.7% increase in operating profit through improvements in gross profit margin and enhanced productivity in fixed costs.

This plan includes a reflection of approximately JPY28 billion in non-operating expenses, associated with one-time payments such as severance costs for a workforce reduction of about 2,000 people.
