Review of Operations

1. Review of Operations

In this consolidated cumulative 1st quarter, the United States economy has gradually recovered due to a steady recovery of employment environment, Europe, a gradual recovery was seen by the personal consumption. However, Greece issues such as remain, such as is now in a state of insecurity remain. Also, in the emerging countries, including China and Southeast Asian countries, we have remained firm despite slowdown of economic growth is continuing.

In the Japanese economy, became a gradual economic recovery and improvement of income environment associated with the upturn in corporate earnings due to weaker yen progression. However, emerging economic stagnation, such as due to high levels of raw material prices due to sluggish growth and the yen stable clothes for export, it is still a situation where anxiety remains in the future.

Under the uncertain market condition, the MARUWA Groupfs business results during this quarter has stayed firm especially in ceramic products for power modules related to energy-savings and environment and communication-related ceramic products which were one of our differentiated products in the ceramic components division. In the lighting equipment division, inquiries of public related lighting, including the road lamp has been strong, we have remained generally as expected.

As a result, our consolidated sales were 7,189 million yen (decrease 4.3% year on year). Our operating income was 651 million yen (increase 44.7% year on year). Ordinary profit was 744 million yen (increase 35.4% year on year). Net income was 442 million yen (increase 23.6% year on year).

2.Operating Results by Business Division

The Ceramic Components Division

The total sales for this business segment was 5,383 million yen (decrease 4.5% year on year).

This decrease is something that has been assumed in the due review of constitution of significant NFC ferrite sheet business in the previous fiscal year.

An operating loss was 1,120 million yen (increase 10.7% year on year).

Lighting Equipment Division

The total sales for this business segment was 1,807 million yen (decrease 3.8% year on year).

MARUWA SHOMEI, orders for public-related lighting, including the road lights were strong. YAMAGIWA, such as the construction period delay due to shortage of soaring and the construction site of construction materials due to the yen's depreciation, but we have followed from the previous fiscal year, actively perform the PR to the customer in the showroom that trimmed the previous fiscal year, continued to take advantage of below.

An operating loss was 316 million yen (compared with an operating profit 96 million yen of the previous year).
