1. Summary of operating results

  1. Summary of operating results of the current fiscal period

Japan's economy during this accounting period of consolidation continued to recover gradually up to the second half-yearly consolidated cumulative period; individual consumption also improved with a steady employment and income environment, but the consolidated cumulative period of the third quarters getting affected by the massive spread of the COVID-19 infection and it is facing downward pressure of the background. The future economic situation remains unclear as a weak movement is seen in the individual consumption.

Even in the domestic automotive market, the total number of new vehicles sales decreased by 87.8% (statistical data of the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association) as compared to the consolidated cumulative period of the same quarter from the previous year (hereinafter referred to as the same quarter from the previous year). The first quarterly consolidated cumulative period ratio to the same period of the previous year stood at 108.1% for the first quarterly consolidated cumulative period due to rush demand prior to the rise in consumption tax , there was a massive reduction in the second quarterly consolidated cumulative period ratio to the same period of the previous year stood at 83.7% due to the reaction to the rush demand and the impact of natural disaster. The third quarterly consolidated cumulative period ratio to the same period of the previous year stood at 89.8 % due to the effect of the COVID-19 infection in addition to continuation of decline in motivation of consumption due to the rise in tax therefore 2-digit reduction continues at two consecutive quarters. For the fourth quarterly consolidated cumulative period, the quarterly consolidated cumulative period ratio to the same period of the previous year dropped to 68.2 %, as the Japanese government declared a state of emergency and people refrained from going out of their homes. The number of registered used cars has continued with the same trend. However, this has stopped at slight reduction of quarterly ratio of 98.0% as compared to the previous year.

During the fourth quarterly consolidated cumulative period when the impact of the COVID-19 infection was significant, the number of vehicles transported and pre-delivery inspected dropped due to the depression of new vehicle sales; in addition export volumes were suppressed due to the impact of the lockdown in Malaysia, the main destination of the used car export business. Human resource business was also affected by the termination of the temporary staffing contracts.

As a result, the business results of our group are as follows: sales revenue of 895.1 million yen (99.2% compared to the same quarter from the previous year) and operating profit of 3,675million yen (111.2% compared to the same quarter from the previous year).In addition, the profit before taxes was 3,679million yen (111.7 % compared to the same quarter from the previous year), and the profit of the quarter attributable to the equity shareholders of the company was 2,374million yen (ratio of same quarter from the previous year of 143.2 %).

The segment business results are as follows. <>

For vehicle transportation, which is the core business, in addition to start of Mitsubishi Motors' vehicle transportation business in the mid of August of 2019, sales expansion efforts were taken actively to major used car dealers. However, with a slump in sales of Nissan Motor Corp, sales revenue for the same company reduced, the vehicle transportation business revenue reduced as the number of vehicles transported dropped due to the depression of new vehicle sales in the fourth quarterly consolidated cumulative period. Moreover, for the used car export business, the number of vehicles exported was suppressed due to the lockdown in Malaysia during the fourth quarterly consolidated cumulative period. However, the used car export business revenue increased as a result of favorable conditions for Malaysia till the third quarterly consolidated cumulative period. This resulted in reduction in revenue as an entire automotive industry.

The restructuring of the transportation system including cooperating companies has been accelerated with the impetus of establishment of regional block companies in the vehicle transportation business, and thorough implementation of cost management is being conducted while aiming to achieve a systematic allocation and optimum distribution network throughout Japan. Profits increased in the automotive related business due to the revision of transportation charges from January 2019, review of the depreciation period of car carriers to match the actual life expectancy, and drop in unit price of fuel expenses compared to the same period of the previous year, in the midst of business challenges such as promoting initiatives for work style reforms to create forwarding company and decrease the total work hours, increased labor costs and recruitment costs to deal with driver shortages, and increased vehicle costs due to the increased number of vehicles and the measures against aging of car carriers.

As a result, the overall sales revenue in the automobile related businesses was 64,675 million yen (98.3% compared to the same period from the previous year), and the segment profit was 5,426 million yen (110.9% compared to the same quarter from the previous year).

<>

With tightening of the labor demand accompanying the economic recovery, the difficulty in employment in major cities and significant rise in labor cost have become a serious matter; therefore, the Group has promoted a regional shift from the major cities to smaller cities and reinforcement of the sales system, and has reviewed its product portfolio strategically and continuously. Human resource revenue has increased as the existing pick up service and driver dispatch business have transitioned steadily and participation in the newly entered airport related business contributes to sales revenue increase , even if being affected by the termination of temporary staffing contracts in the fourth quarterly consolidated cumulative period, in addition transient job listing advertising costs are no longer required,; and profit has increased with the restructuring of pricing strategy and cost structure.

As a result, the sales revenue of the overall human resource business was 18,603 million yen (100.4 % compared to the same quarter from the previous year), and the segment profit was 650 million yen (207.6% compared to the same quarter from the previous year).

<>

In the transport / warehousing business, cargo volume reduced by the partial clients during the fourth quarterly consolidated cumulative period. However, it increased due to the increased cargo volume from the rush demand of the tax rise, from clients that were mainly handling household equipment. However, the revenue in the port cargo handling business reduced due to reduction in coal and automobile-related cargo. Furthermore, the CKD business was launched and contributed to the sales revenue increase, increasing the revenue in the overall general cargo business as well.

Profit increased with the increased revenue in the transport / warehousing business, but revenue decreased in the port cargo business due to reduced revenue. Furthermore, loss related to the launch of the CKD business has continued, and there was a significant decrease overall in profit in the general cargo business.

As a result of the above, the sales revenue of the overall general cargo business was 6,222 million yen (104.9 % compared to the same quarter of the previous year), and the segment loss was 188 million yen (segment profit of 150 million yen in the same quarter of the previous year).

Furthermore, the company expenses not including the abovementioned segment-wise loss and profit (expenses affiliated with our company's management division), etc. are allocated as an item in the "adjustment amount" as indicated in "3. Consolidated financial statements and major notes (6) Notes on consolidated financial statements (Segment information)" in the summary of consolidated statements for the quarter," and totaled 2,212 million yen.

  1. Future outlook

  2. In the next consolidated cumulative period, the effect of COVID-19 is predicted to remain prevalent in the year 2020. Namely, it is predicted that number of vehicle transportation will reduce by 10 % due to low number of new vehicles purchases. It is also estimated that recovery of automobile market of Malaysia will take time and hence, number of used car export within the year will be reduced to half. Even in the human resource business, reduction in sale earnings will be seen due to continued effect of the termination of temporary staffing contracts.
    The domestic automobile industry is said to be in a 100-year transient reform period due to reduction in population and reduction in number driving license holders due to non-use of cars and advancement of mobility represented by CASE (Connected, Autonomous, Sharing and Electric) or MaaS (Mobility as a Service) in addition to increase in period of average number of usage years with improved durability of cars.
    Moreover, the logistics industry is predicted to show continuous severe financial environment due to the serious insufficiency of drivers due to reduced labor demand, assumed rise in mid to long-term fuel prices, advancement of work reforms aiming at controlling long-term labor and compliance such as on-road load handling limitations.
    Under these conditions, in our company group, optimization of management activity and logistics system is being promoted by activating the regional characteristics of the base stations all over the country and with shrinking of domestic automobile market, efforts are being taken for expansion of overseas industry, participation of automobile industry of various models and reclamation of new industry looking at next- generation mobility companies.
    Moreover, regional block companies have been established as a series of restructuring of vehicle transportation basics and hence, after estimating transport efficiency possessed within the group, improvement of transport efficiency and strengthening of cost management will be progressed by realization of planned vehicle distribution, infrastructure and resource within the group including cooperative companies will be utilized to the maximum level and effect of group synergy will be maximized.
    The performance forecast of June 2021 period is estimated to be 81 billion Yen of sale earnings, 3.6 billion yen of operating profits, 3.58 billion yen of profit before tax deduction and 2.3 billion yen of current period profit owing to owners of new company.
    * The above forecast is judged by the company to be rational based on information procurable as of now and the actual results may differ from the forecast.

2. Basic view on selection of accounting standards

This company group aims at achieving improvement in efficiency and quality of management through integration of financial report basics considering the progress of overseas business expansion and the policy of Tan Chong International Limited Group, which is the parent company and at achieving improving international comparison of financial information in the capital market.

  1. Notes on consolidated financial statements (Notes on going concern assumption) There are no applicable matters.
    (Changes in accounting policies)
    The important company policies that our group applies to this quarterly consolidated financial statement summary will be the same company policies applicable to the consolidated financial statements of the previous consolidated accounting year excluding the below.
  1. Application of IFRS No. 16 (lease)
    Our group has applied the following standards starting from the first quarter of the consolidated accounting

period.

Standard

Name of the standard

Summary

IFRS No. 16

Lease

Definition of lease and revision of accounting

process

In the application of IFRS No. 16 "Lease (announced in January of 2016, hereinafter referred to as IFRS No. 16), a method which is approved as a transitional measure that recognizes the cumulative amount of financial impact due to the application of this standard to be recognized on the day the application is started(retroactive revision approach), is being adopted. Therefore, revised comparison information is not shown again, and the cumulative effect of the application of IFRS No. 16 is recognized on the initial application date, which is July 1, 2019.

In the previous consolidated accounting year, our group has classified all substantial risks and lease contracts with economic benefit as finance lease. Lease assets are initially recognized at the fair value or the current value of the total amount of minimum payment lease fee. Lease contracts other than finance leases are classified as operating leases and are not appropriated in the consolidated statement of affairs of our group. The payment lease fee of operating leases is recognized as an expense throughout the lease period based on the straight-line method.

During current consolidated accounting year, our group did not categorize borrower leases as finance leases or operating leases, in accordance with IFRS No. 16,Our group introduced a single accounting model, and has recognized lease debts which show the obligation to pay the right-of-use asset and lease fee, which show the right to use the underlying assets as a general rule for all leases; excluding cases of short term leases with a lease period shorter than 12 months or small amount assets leases.

Accompanying the application of IFRS No. 16, for borrower lease transactions, our group has measured the right to use asset at acquisition cost and the lease debt at the current value of the total amount of unpaid lease fees at the lease commencement date. The acquisition cost of the right to use asset is initially measured by adjusting the prepaid lease payment, etc. to the initial measured amount of the lease debt. In the summary of consolidated financial status statement for the quarter, the right-of-use asset is shown as included in the "tangible fixed assets," and the lease debt is included in the "other financial debts. "The depreciation of the right-of-use assets and interest costs related to the lease debt are appropriated after recognizing the right-of-use assets and the lease debts.

Our group estimates the lease period of the right-of-use asset by adding a reasonably certain time period in which executing an option to extend the lease or executing an option to cancel the lease will not be exercised during the irrevocability period of the lease. In addition, the discount rate applied to the lease debts related to the applicable right-of-use assets utilize the borrowing interest rate of the borrower. The right- of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the useful life period of the underlying asset if the ownership of the underlying asset is to be transferred to the borrower, over the shorter of either the useful life period or the lease period for other cases.

In addition, our group utilizes the following practical expedients in applying the IFRS No. 16.

  • Regarding leases in which the lease period is to be concluded within 12 months of the application start date, the same accounting process method of short-term leases
  • Exclude the initial direct cost from the measurement of right-of uses of the date of initial application
  • Carry over the past decision of whether the transaction is a lease or not for the contracts signed before the previous consolidated accounting year
  • Utilize ex post facto decisions in the case of calculating the lease period for contracts which include extension or cancellation options

(2) Effect on the summary of the consolidated financial statements of the quarter

For the company group, 8,871 million yen for right-of-use assets and 8,720 million yen for lease debts are appropriated in the summary of consolidated financial status statements for this quarter on July 1, 2019. This is mainly an influence of the lease fee classified as an operating lease in IAS No. 17 being appropriated as an asset and debt upon application of IFRS No. 16. Furthermore, there is no effect on the accumulated earnings at the beginning of the term because right-of-use assets that is the same amount as the lease debts (however, advance lease fee is revised) is recognized when the lease debt is recognized.

13

The average of the added borrowing interest applied to the lease debts at the time of the application start date was 0.2%.

In addition, the cash flow due to sales activities increased, and the cash flow due to financial activities decreased in conjunction with the change, etc. of display in the operating lease cost.

The difference between the total of the minimum lease fee of the irrevocable operating leases at the last date of the fiscal year immediately before the application start date, and the lease debt recognized in the summary of the consolidated financial status statement for the quarter as of the application start date, is as follows.

(Change of accounting estimates) (Change in life expectancy)

Regarding the group's sales vehicles in the automobile related business by our company, (some excluded); it became clear that long-term usage could be expected through regular maintenance, etc. Due to this, the life expectancy has been revised from the conventional 7 years to 10 years starting the first quarter of the consolidated accounting period going forward.

Due to this, 326 million yen has been added to the sales profit and pre-tax profits for the current consolidated cumulative period compared to the case of using the conventional useful life period. In addition, the effect on the segment information is indicated in the applicable portions.

(Additional Information)

(About accounting estimates associated with the spread of COVID-19 )

Now the COVID-19 infection is continuing to spread, and it has a certain impact on the business activities of our group. Our company group makes an estimate about future cash flows in fixed asset impairment accounting and goodwill impairment testing, and collectability of deferred tax assets in tax effect accounting. In reflecting the impact of the COVID-19 infection in the accounting estimate, it is predicted that the effect of COVID-19 infection will continue for a certain period of June 2021.

Although we make reasonable estimates and judgments based on the information procurable as of now, there are uncertainties in the estimation of the spread and convergence of the COVID-19, and the actual results may differ from the forecast.
