The economy in the first half of fiscal 2022, from April through September 2021, generally continued to see recovery in the corporate sector in the U.S., Europe and Japan. The household sector also recovered in the U.S. and Europe due to the progress in the novel coronavirus diseases (COVID-19) vaccinations, while the continuing impact of COVID-19 put downward pressure on recovery of the household sector in Japan. China continued to see recovery in export, while the paces of recovery in manufacturing and the household sector slowed down.
Revenue
Revenue in the first half increased by 236.3 billion yen from the same period of the previous fiscal year to 2,138.3 billion yen due primarily to increased revenue in Industrial Automation Systems, Home Appliances and Electronic Devices segments. Industrial Automation Systems segment saw an increase in the factory automation systems business due mainly to an increase in demand for capital expenditures relating to semiconductor, electronic components, smartphones and lithium-ion battery worldwide. The automotive equipment business also increased as demand for new cars recovered in all regions except for China. Home Appliances segment increased because demand for air conditioners remained buoyant particularly in Europe and North America. Electronic Devices segment increased due primarily to recovery in demand for power modules.
Operating Profit
Operating profit increased by 76.4 billion yen from the same period of the previous fiscal year to 137.8 billion yen due mainly to increased operating profit in Industrial Automation Systems and Home Appliances segments. Operating profit ratio improved by 3.2% from the same period of the previous fiscal year to 6.4%.
The cost ratio improved by 2.0% from the same period of the previous fiscal year due primarily to higher operating ratio caused by increased revenue of Industrial Automation Systems and Home Appliances segments in addition to the yen depreciating against other currencies.
