Tokyo, October 31, 2012 - Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today its financial results for the first half and second quarter, ending September 30, 2012, of the current fiscal year ending March 31, 2013 (fiscal 2013).

 

 

1. Consolidated Half-year Results (April 1, 2012 - September 30, 2012)

 

Net sales:

1,696.0 billion yen

(3% decrease from the same period last year)

Operating income:

89.6 billion yen

During the first half of fiscal 2013, the economy saw a downturn in Japan which experienced a downward trend in production and export, and continuous slowdown in Europe and Asia, while the U.S. economy remained buoyant. Meanwhile, Japanese yen remained strong against U.S. dollars and euros.

 

Under these circumstances, consolidated net sales for the first half of fiscal 2013 was 1,696.0 billion yen, a 3% decrease compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year, mainly owing to decreased revenues in the Industrial Automation Systems, Electronic Devices and Home Appliances segments. Operating income marked 89.6 billion yen, decreasing by 21% compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year, due to lower profits mainly in the Industrial Automation Systems, Electronic Devices and Home Appliances segments.

This was due primarily to a decrease in trade receivables by 82.8 billion yen resulting from various factors including credit collection, while inventories rose by 42.0 billion yen mainly due to increased work-in-process as recorded in commensurate with progress in job orders under pertinent contracts.

 

The balance of outstanding debts and corporate bonds rose by 95.9 billion yen from the end of the previous fiscal year to 638.2 billion yen, with a rise in the ratio of interest bearing debt to total assets to 19.0% (an increase by 3.0 points compared to the end of the previous fiscal year).

Retained earnings increased by 30.7 billion yen due to 43.6 billion yen recorded as net income attributable to Mitsubishi Electric Corporation and dividend payment of 12.8 billion yen, while accumulated other comprehensive income decreased by 36.0 billion yen mainly due to stronger yen and decline in stock prices.

Forecast for Fiscal 2013 (year ending March 31, 2013)

Following the issue of overcharged expenses in the company's electronics systems business which arose in January 2012 or after, Mitsubishi Electric was suspended from further bidding by Japan's 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 company's affiliates were also suspended from further bidding by the MOD.

 

Although the company reimbursed 26 million yen to the national treasury on July 4, 2012 in relation to overcharged expenses on contracts with the MIC, the impact to the company's business performance in relation to refund payments for excessive charges and other expenses to the other organizations is currently unclear and thus not considered in the current forecast, but may cause material effects on the Group's future financial results.

 

Note: The results forecast above is based on assumptions deemed reasonable by the company at the present time, and actual results may differ significantly from forecasts. Please refer to the cautionary statement at the end.

Cautionary Statement

The expectation of operating results herein and any associated statement to be made orally with respect to the company's current plans, estimates, strategies and beliefs and any other statements that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements. Words such as "expects", "anticipates", "plans", "believes", "scheduled", "estimated", "targeted" along with any variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements which include but are not limited to projections of revenues, earnings, performance and production.

 

The Mitsubishi Electric Group is involved in the development, manufacture and sales in a wide range of fields including Energy and Electric Systems, Industrial Automation Systems, Information and Communication Systems, Electronic Devices and Home Appliances, and these operations stretch out globally, not only inside Japan, but also in North America, Europe, Asia and other regions. While the statements herein are based on certain assumptions and premises that the company trusts and considers to be reasonable under the circumstances to the date of announcement, you are requested to kindly take note that actual operating results are subject to change due to any of the factors as contemplated hereunder and/or any additional factor unforeseeable as of the date of this announcement. Such factors materially affecting the expectations expressed herein shall include but are not limited to the following:

 

(1) Important trends

The Mitsubishi Electric Group's operations may be affected by trends in the global economy, social conditions, laws, tax codes, and regulations.

(2) Foreign currency exchange rates

Fluctuations in foreign currency markets may affect Mitsubishi Electric's sales of exported products and purchases of imported materials that are denominated in U.S. dollars or Euros, as well as its Asian production bases' sales of exported products and purchases of imported materials that are denominated in foreign currencies.

(3) Stock markets

A fall in stock market prices may cause Mitsubishi Electric to record devaluation losses on marketable securities, or cause an increase in retirement benefit obligations in accordance with a decline in the fair value of pension assets.

(4) Supply/demand balance for products and procurement conditions for materials and components

A decline in prices and shipments due to changes in the supply/demand balance, as well as an increase in material prices due to a worsening of material and component procurement conditions may adversely affect the Mitsubishi Electric Group's performance.

(5) Fund raising

An increase in interest rates, the yen interest rate in particular, would increase Mitsubishi Electric's interest expenses.

(6) Significant patent matters

Important patent filings, licensing, copyrights and patent-related disputes may adversely affect related businesses.

(7) Environmental legislation or relevant issues

We may incur losses or expenses owing to changes in environmental legislation or the occurrence of environmental issues.Such changes in legislation or the occurrence of environmental issues may also impact manufacturing and all corporate activities of the Mitsubishi Electric Group.

(8) Flaws or defects in products or services

We may incurlosses or expenses resulting out of flaws or defects in products or services, and the lowered reputation of the quality of all our products and services may affect the entire Mitsubishi Electric group.

(9) Litigation and other legal proceedings

The Mitsubishi Electric Group's operations may be affected by lawsuits or other legal proceedings against Mitsubishi Electric, its subsidiaries and/or equity-method affiliated companies.

(10) Disruptive changes

Disruptive changes in technology, development of products using new technology, timing of production, and market introduction may adversely affect the Mitsubishi Electric Group's performance.

(11) Business restructuring

The Mitsubishi Electric Group may record losses due to restructuring measures.

(12) Natural disasters

The Mitsubishi Electric Group's operations, particularly manufacturing activities, may be affected by the occurrence of earthquakes, typhoons, tsunami, fires and other large-scale disasters.

(13) Other significant factors

The Mitsubishi Electric Group's operations may be affected by the outbreak of social or political upheaval due to terrorism, war, pandemic by new strains of influenza and other diseases, or other factors.

 

Notes

1. Change in accounting policy

From this fiscal year, the company has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2011-05 "Presentation of Comprehensive Income." Comprehensive income has been presented in the consolidated comprehensive income statement.

Accordingly, the company has adopted ASU 2011-05 retrospectively for the same period of the previous fiscal year. Although ASU 2011-05 requires to present separate line items for reclassification adjustments of items out of accumulated other comprehensive income into net income, the company has not presented separately due to deferral in the application schedule as stated in ASU 2011-12 "Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05."
