Mitsubishi Electric Announces Consolidated Financial Results for the First 9 Months and Third Quarter of Fiscal 2012

 

 

Tokyo, February 2, 2012- Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today its financial results for the first 9 months and third quarter ending December 31, 2011, of the current fiscal year ending March 31, 2012 (fiscal 2012).

 

1. Consolidated First 9 Months Results (April 1, 2011 - December 31, 2011)

 

Net sales:

2,560.3 billion yen

(2% decrease from the same period last year)

Operating income:

161.7 billion yen

(16% decrease from the same period last year)

Income before income taxes:

164.5 billion yen

(12% decrease from the same period last year)

Net income attributable to

Mitsubishi Electric Corp.:

(30% decrease from the same period last year)

 

In the first 9 months of fiscal 2012, the global economy saw a continued trend of gradual recovery both inside and outside Japan until the second quarter, while it experienced a recent downward trend with the yen remaining strong against US dollars and euros, in addition to a setback in the European and East Asian economy, tight supply of parts caused by the flood in Thailand and slowdown in Japanese production and exports.

 

Under these circumstances, consolidated net sales for the first 9 months of fiscal 2012 decreased by 2% compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year to 2,560.3 billion yen, with decreased sales in the Energy and Electric Systems and Home Appliances segments. Consolidated operating income for the first 9 months of fiscal 2012 decreased by 16% compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year to 161.7 billion yen, owing to income decreases in Energy and Electric Systems, Industrial Automation Systems, Information and Communication Systems and Home Appliances segments.

 

Net income attributable to Mitsubishi Electric Corporation for the first 9 months of fiscal 2012 decreased by 30% compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year to 82.0 billion yen, due to tax costs of 32.0 billion yen resulting from a re-evaluation of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the reduction of corporate tax rates to be effective as of April 2012, which follows the promulgation in December 2011 of the "Act for Partial Revision of the Income Tax Act etc. for the Purpose of Creating Taxation System Responding to Changes in Economic and Social Structures" (Act No.114 of 2011) and the "Act on Special Measures for Securing Financial Resources Necessary to Implement Measures for Reconstruction Following the Great East Japan Earthquake" (Act No.117 of 2011).
