Mitsubishi Electric Announces Consolidated and Non-consolidated Financial Results for Fiscal 2012

 

Tokyo, April 27, 2012 - Mitsubishi Electric Corporation(TOKYO: 6503) announced today its consolidated and non-consolidated financial results for fiscal 2012 (April 1, 2011- March 31, 2012).

 

Consolidated Financial Results

Net sales:

3,639.4

billion yen

(Unchanged from the previous fiscal year)

Operating income:

225.4

billion yen

(4% decrease from the previous fiscal year)

Income before income taxes:

224.0

(7% increase from the previous fiscal year)

Net income attributable to Mitsubishi Electric Corp.:

(10% decrease from the previous fiscal year)

 

Non-consolidated Financial Results

Net sales:

2,344.5

billion yen

(Unchanged from the previous fiscal year)

Operating income:

(10% decrease from the previous fiscal year)

Ordinary profit:

127.5

billion yen

(6% increase from the previous fiscal year)

Net income:

55.8

billion yen

(29% decrease from the previous fiscal year)

 

With 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, the business environment in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2012 worsened in the latter half of the fiscal year due to a stagnation in the recovery trend inside and outside Japan, and the yen remaining strong against US dollars and euro.

 

Under these circumstances, the Mitsubishi Electric Group has been working even harder than before to promote growth strategies that take root in its advantages, in addition to the ongoing improvements to strengthen its competitiveness and business structure.

 

Mitsubishi Electric has recorded consolidated 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 effective as of April 2012, which follows the promulgation in December 2011 of the gAct for Partial Revision of the Income Tax Act etc. for the Purpose of Creating Taxation System Responding to Changes in Economic and Social Structuresh (Act No.114 of 2011) and the gAct on Special Measures for Securing Financial Resources Necessary to Implement Measures for Reconstruction Following the Great East Japan Earthquakeh (Act No.117 of 2011).

(Unchanged from the previous fiscal year)

Operating income:

(1.8 billion yen increase from the previous fiscal year)

The building systems business experienced increases in both orders and sales compared to the previous fiscal year, owing to a growth in demand for elevators and escalators in the Chinese and ASEAN markets, as well as large projects recorded for China and Korea.

As a result, total sales for this segment was unchanged from the previous fiscal year. Operating income increased by 1.8 billion yen from the previous fiscal year mainly due to a shift in sales components.

(6% increase from the previous fiscal year)

Operating income:

101.1

billion yen

(1.1 billion yen increase from the previous fiscal year)

The automotive equipment business saw increases in both orders and sales from the previous fiscal year due to expansions in emerging markets including China and India as well as recovery in the North American market, despite impact from the Great East Japan Earthquake and the flood in Thailand.

The information systems and services business saw increased sales compared to the previous fiscal year mainly due to growth in the system integration and the network and system operations businesses.

The electronic systems business saw a decrease in orders from the previous fiscal year due primarily to a decrease in the number of large projects in the space systems business, while sales increased from the previous fiscal year due to an increase in the electronics business.

billion yen

(14% increase from the previous fiscal year)

Operating income:

Operating income:

22.3

billion yen

(19.6 billion yen decrease from the previous fiscal year)

Operating income fell by 19.6 billion yen from the previous fiscal year due primarily to a decrease in sales.

Fundamental dividend distribution policy

Mitsubishi Electricfs fundamental policy is to comprehensively promote improvement in shareholder profits from the viewpoints of appropriate profit distribution commensurate with earnings performance of the respective fiscal year, as well as strengthening our financial standing through the companyfs internal reserves, with the ultimate goal of enhancing corporate value.

 

FY 2012 and FY 2013 dividend

Considering the companyfs business performance and financial conditions in fiscal 2012, the company has decided to pay a year-end retained earnings dividend of 6 yen per share for fiscal 2012. Adding the interim dividend of 6 yen per share, the total annual dividend will be 12 yen per share. Payment is planned to begin on June 4, 2012.

 

The retained earnings dividend for fiscal 2013 is still undecided.

cf. In fiscal 2011, interim dividend was 5 yen and year-end dividend was 7 yen per share. (Annual dividend of 12 yen per share)

 

 

FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONSOLIDATED BASIS)

 

Assets, Liabilities, and Shareholdersf Equity

The companyfs total assets for the fiscal year increased from the end of the previous fiscal year by 58.9 billion yen to 3,391.6 billion yen. This increase is mainly due to a 158.6 billion yen increase in trade receivables, despite a 79.8 billion yen decrease in cash and cash equivalents.

 

The balance of outstanding debts and corporate bonds rose by 57.9 billion yen from the balance as of the end of the previous fiscal year to 542.2 billion yen, resulting in an increase of its ratio of interest-bearing debt to total assets to 16.0% (increase of 1.5 points compared to the end of the previous fiscal year). Trade payables increased by 2.4 billion yen, while reserves for retirement and severance benefits decreased by 46.9 billion yen, due primarily to an increase in pension assets resulting from a rise in stock prices and other factors.

 

Shareholdersf equity increased by 82.1 billion yen compared to the end of the previous fiscal year to 1,132.4 billion yen. The ratio of shareholdersf equity to total assets was 33.4%, a 1.9-point increase compared to the previous fiscal year. Retained earnings increased by 84.1 billion yen from the end of the previous fiscal year, owing to a 112.0 billion yen net income attributable to Mitsubishi Electric Corporation and a dividend payment of 27.9 billion yen. Accumulated other comprehensive income increased by 0.3 billion yen.

 

Cash Flow

Cash flows from operating activities for this financial year decreased by 252.4 billion yen compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year to 75.1 billion yen (cash in) due to an increase in trade receivables. Investment cash flow increased by 10.5 billion yen compared to the previous fiscal year to 156.1 billion yen (cash out) due to increases in purchase of tangible fixed assets and other factors. As a result, free cash flow was 80.9 billion yen (cash out). Cash flows from financing activities were 7.0 billion yen (cash in) mainly due to an increase in loan payables.

CURRENT FORECAST FOR FISCAL 2013

The global economy is expected to see continued stagnation in the European market, while a gradual trend of recovery is expected in the U.S. and emerging markets. The companyfs business environment, however, is expected to remain severe due to the strong yen continuing against U.S. dollars and euros, as well as a slow recovery in the Japanese private sector.

 

Under these circumstances, the Mitsubishi Electric Group will continue to increase and strengthen profitability in each business. To bolster initiatives in continuously achieving its management targets, the Mitsubishi Electric Group is committed to continuously implementing various Group-wide measures toward uplifting its business performance and financial standing. The Group will also proceed in strongly pushing forward its growth strategies including the expansion of its global business, promotion of environment-related businesses and strengthening of its social infrastructure business.

Following the issue of overcharged expenses in the companyfs electronics systems business which arose in January or after, Mitsubishi Electric was suspended from further bidding by Japanfs Ministry of Defense (MOD), Cabinet Satellite Intelligence Center (CSICE), Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT) and the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC). Four of the companyfs affiliates were also suspended from further bidding by the MOD. The impact to the companyfs business performance in relation to refund payments for excessive charges and other expenses is currently unclear and thus not considered in the current forecast, but may cause material effects on the Groupfs future financial results.
