1. Qualitative Information on Financial Results for the Term
(1) Business Performance
The Ushio Group experienced another uncertain business climate in the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023. Economic activity picked up despite new waves of COVID-19 infections. At the same time, a range of factors slowed down an economy recovery. These included shortages of semiconductors and other parts, raw materials price hikes, supply chain disruptions, and further energy and raw materials price rises following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
It was against that backdrop that cinemas worldwide reopened and improved screen operation rates despite the impact of infections with new COVID-19 strains. The semiconductor, electronic device, and printed circuit board markets enjoyed robust demand from 5G technology uptakes and progress in employing the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence. The flat panel display market benefited from production capacity utilization remaining high for mobile devices and monitors.
The average exchange rate during the term was ¥126 to the U.S. dollar, from ¥110 a year earlier.
Consolidated first-quarter net sales accordingly increased 13.6% from the previous corresponding period, to ¥39.7 billion yen. Operating profit jumped 73.9%, to ¥4.4 billion. Ordinary profit surged 90.2%, to ¥6.2 billion. Profit attributable to owners of parent rose 14.2%, to ¥3.8 billion.
Segment results were as follows.
Light Source Business
Discharge Lamps
Production of UV lamps for lithography equipment remained high, with replacement lamp sales rising. This growth was due to higher demand for semiconductors and electronic devices from 5G technology uptakes and against the backdrop of Internet of Things and artificial intelligence progress. Another contributor was stay-at-home-driven demand growth for LCD panels for mobile devices and monitors.
Sales of lamps for related optical equipment increased on high operating levels for Ushio-made optical equipment employed in LCD panel-related manufacturing processes. Sales of replacement xenon lamps for cinema projectors were up on cinemas reopening and recovering screen operation rates as economic activities resumed despite new COVID-19 infection waves in many countries. Discharge lamp sales were thus up from a year earlier.
Halogen Lamps
Sales of halogen lamps for office automation equipment were basically unchanged. One key performance factor for the term was that demand for this equipment recovered from the impact of the pandemic during the term. Another was parts shortages among set manufacturers. Sales of heater lamps for semiconductor production processes rose in a robust semiconductor market. Sales of halogen lamps accordingly increased in the period under review.
Light Source business sales thus climbed 17.2% from a year earlier, to ¥16.0 billion. Segment operating profit was up 58.6%, to ¥3.1 billion.
Optical Equipment Business
In the semiconductor, electronic device, and printed circuit board markets, demand continued to rise for data center servers in view of the 5G, Internet of Things, and artificial intelligence factors mentioned earlier. Sales of large field steppers for advanced IC package substrates were thus basically unchanged. Sales of direct imaging lithography equipment for package and printed circuit boards increased. In contrast, demand for LCD panels ran its course, driving related capital investments and equipment sales down.
In EUV light sources for EUV lithography mask inspections, light source sales decreased owing to temporary demand adjustments, offsetting the impact of higher maintenance services on solid operating levels for light sources sold before the period under review.
Segment sales therefore decreased 7.0%, to ¥11.5 billion, with operating profit rising 0.4%, to ¥1.0 billion.
2
Imaging Equipment Business
Cinemas progressed with reopening and regaining screen operation rates during the term, particularly in Europe and the United States. Capital investment demand was on a recovery track, with digital cinema projector sales rising. In general imaging, sales of related products increased on gradual demand recoveries, particularly in North America.
This reflected operational resumptions for commercial facilities, amusement parks, and events.
Segment sales jumped 38.5%, to ¥11.3 billion. Segment operating profit was ¥246 million, from an operating loss of ¥477 million a year earlier.
Others
Despite rises in COVID-19 infections keeping investments on the back burner, particularly for molding machines, related markets gradually recovered.
Other segment sales accordingly increased 14.6%, to ¥752 million. Operating profit was ¥10 million, compared with an operating loss of ¥1.0 million a year earlier.
(2) Review of Financial Position
Assets
Total assets increased by ¥9,869 million as compared to the end of the previous fiscal year, to ¥330,965 million. The main factors behind this increase was an increase in inventories due to an increase in orders for optical equipment and other products, while the decrease in cash and deposits due to dividend, tax payments and the purchase of treasury shares.
Liabilities
Total liabilities increase by ¥5,716 million as compared to the end of the previous fiscal year, to ¥91,610 million. The main factors behind this increase were increase in notes and accounts payable - trade due to an increase in material purchase, while the decrease in income taxes payable and provision for bonuses due to tax and bonus payments.
Net Assets
Net assets increase by ¥4,152 million as compared to the end of the previous fiscal year, to ¥239,355 million. The main factors behind this increase were an increase in foreign currency translation adjustments from the yen depreciating toward the end of the first quarter, and retained earnings from posting profit attributable to owners of parent.
(3) Explanation of Consolidated Forecast and Other Forward-looking statements
There are no revisions to the full-year consolidated forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2023 announced on May 11, 2022. The forecast is based on currently available information, and that certain reasonable assumptions and results could differ owing to a range of factors.
