Quarterly Financial Results for the First Quarter, Ended June 30, 2017, Kaneka Corporation (4118) 1. Quarterly Consolidated Business Performance (1) Consolidated Business Performance The global economy remained solid during the first quarter (April 1, 2017 to June 30, 2017). The Kaneka Group reported consolidated net sales of 144,302 million (up 6.1% year on year), the highest on record, due to a sales increase mainly in the overseas market. Ordinary income was 7,151 million (up 0.3% year on year), and net income attributable to owners of parent was 4,761 million (up 3.5% year on year). Operating income was 7,252 million (down 17.4% year on year) due to the impact of a sharp increase in certain raw material prices. Operating performance by business segment was as follows: 1) Material In the Performance Polymers business, with strong demand of modifier continuing, a new facility in Malaysia started operation in March 2017, eliminating a shortage in production capacity and greatly increasing sales volume. However, due to an abrupt change in the market price of the major raw material butadiene, which the Group procured in large quantities in preparation for the full operation of the new facility, the profitability of the business dropped sharply in the first quarter. After the second quarter, the Group is forecasting further earnings expansion, as the temporary impact of butadiene price will be eliminated and sales will be expanded due to increasing production capacity. The sales volume of modified silicone polymers increased steadily due to expanding applications globally. In addition, a new production facility in Malaysia started operation in July 2017 as planned, and the product sales have already begun. In the Vinyls and Chlor-Alkali business, general PVC resins and caustic soda continued to see firm sales in the Asian market, and sales of Specialty PVC resins such as Chlorinated PVC expanded steadily, mainly in the US market. 2) Quality of Life In the Foam & Residential Techs business, despite an increase in sales volume, profits declined due to the impact of rising prices of major raw materials such as styrene monomer. In the second quarter, which is the demand season, the business will see a sales price adjustment and sales volume expansion. In the Performance Fibers business, the pile market saw the return of strong demand and the hair accessory market also saw demand recover after reaching a bottom in the third and fourth quarters over the previous fiscal year. However, profitability deteriorated as the Group was not able to maximize the competitiveness of the newly established Malaysia plant along with the rise in raw material prices. After the second quarter, profitability is expected to improve due to recovery in demand and the full-scale contribution of products produced in Malaysia. In the E&I Technology business, where the demand is steadily expanding, profit improved due to an increase in sales volume of high-functional products such as Pixeo and progress on the supply system for ultra-heat-resistant polyimide film, which had been delayed. After the second quarter, there will be additional large-scale demand, such as new models of a major smartphone maker for which there have been frequent inquiries. We will promote sales expansion to boost profitability by strengthening capacity-enhanced facilities. In the PV & Energy management business, the sales of high efficiency roof-tile-integrated photovoltaic modules to major house makers, launched last year, expanded steadily. Looking ahead, we will commit to providing energy solutions that contribute to net zero energy houses, centering on the photovoltaic modules business. 3) Health Care Sales of the Medical Devices business remained solid in the domestic and overseas markets. After the second quarter, we will further advance our joint business in vascular intervention with other companies and expand sales of the blood purification business by strengthening marketing structure in the US. In the Pharma business, sales of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and biopharmaceuticals expanded steadily, although the sales volume of pharmaceutical intermediates decreased compared the first quarter of fiscal 2016, where sales were concentrated. 2
Quarterly Financial Results for the First Quarter, Ended June 30, 2017, Kaneka Corporation (4118) 4) Nutrition In the Foods & Agris business, sales expanded due to a proposal-based approach to major suppliers of bakery products, convenience stores, and food product manufacturers, which have strengths in new foodstuffs. In the Supplemental Nutrition business, profitability improved due to an increase in public recognition of the reduced form of coenzyme Q10 and productivity enhancements. The Group expect to expand sales in the US market from the second quarter. (2) Consolidated Financial Position 1) Status of Assets, Liabilities and Equity Total assets were 599,284 million as of June 30, 2017, down 6,384 million compared with March 31, 2017 due to increases in investment securities and noncurrent assets. Liabilities totaled 271,853 million, up 504 million due to an increase in accrued expenses. Net assets (equity) increased by 5,879 million to 327,430 million due to increases in the valuation difference on available-for-sale securities and in retained earnings. 2) Consolidated Cash Flows Net cash provided by operating activities during the first quarter was 8,844 million, mainly due to income before income taxes and depreciation and amortization, while net cash used in investing activities amounted to 9,842 million, mainly due to the purchase of property, plant and equipment. Net cash used in financing activities came to 5,711 million, mainly owing to cash dividends paid. As a result, cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2017 totaled 34,444 million, mainly due to cash dividends paid and purchase of treasury stock. (3) Consolidated Business Forecasts Looking ahead, the global economy is expected to follow a gradual recovery trend, uncertainties remain, such as political trends in key countries, economic conditions in emerging nations, and geopolitical risks. In this business environment, in the E&I Technology business the Company expects an increase in sales to major smartphone makers for new models, and the Performance Fibers business it expects an increase in sales in the Asian and African markets from the second quarter. In addition, the impact of sharp increase in raw material prices will be eliminated, and the Group will expand sales of modifiers and modified silicone polymers, which are experiencing strong demand due to strengthening of production capacity. Therefore, the Group has not revised its fullyear consolidated business forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31 2018. 3
