BUSINESS RESULTS, etc.

1. Business Results

Consolidated Business Results

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, although there were signs of a gradual recovery of the global economy, the pace of economic recovery has slowed down recently, due to supply constraints such as shortages of components, as well as soaring raw material prices and global monetary tightening in line with rising inflationary pressures and other factors.

With regard to the business conditions surrounding the SCREEN Group, capital investments in the electronics industry showed signs of contraction in some parts due to a decline in demand for smartphones, PCs, and other products as a backlash to the extraordinary demand caused by COVID-19. Meanwhile, we saw steady growth of capital investments in the fields of miniaturization, power semiconductors, and packaging technology in line with the progress in IoT technologies and digital transformation driven by the growing use of 5G and AI, as well as green transformation. On the other hand, concerns over the conflict between the U.S. and China and the impact on national security issues have increased further. In addition, display manufacturers have been revising the capital investment plan mainly due to falling panel prices.

Under these circumstances, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, the SCREEN Group posted consolidated net sales of ¥460,834 million, an increase of ¥48,968 million (11.9%) from the previous fiscal year. On the earnings front, as the result of an increase in net sales and other factors, operating income totaled ¥76,452 million, up ¥15,179 million (24.8%) year on year. Ordinary income amounted to ¥77,393 million, up ¥17,954 million (30.2%) year on year. In addition, as a result of gains in extraordinary income for the sales of shares of subsidiaries and associates and other factors, profit attributable to owners of parent was ¥57,491 million, up ¥12,009 million (26.4%) compared with the previous fiscal year.

Results by Business Segment

Performance by reportable segment is as follows.

The Semiconductor Production Equipment (SPE) Business

In the SPE business, foundry and logic sales increased year on year, despite a decline in sales to memory. By region, sales to China fell, while sales to Taiwan and Europe grew. As a result, net sales in this segment amounted to ¥370,934 million, up 16.1 year on year. On the earnings front, operating income in this segment came to ¥76,950 million, up 22.5 year on year, mainly reflecting the increase in sales.

The Graphic Arts Equipment (GA) Business

In the GA business, net sales in this segment amounted to ¥45,609 million, up 5.3 year on year, due to increased sales of equipment and recurring business, mainly ink. On the earnings front, operating income was ¥3,397 million, up 107.6 year on year due mainly to an increase in sales.

The Display Production Equipment and Coater (FT) Business

In the FT business, sales of production equipment declined due to the sluggish capital investment by display manufacturers. As a result, net sales in this segment amounted to ¥26,189 million, down 21.3 year on year. On the earnings front, operating loss came to ¥1,840 million, compared with operating income of ¥587 million in the previous fiscal year, mainly reflecting the decrease in net sales.

The PCB-Related Equipment (PE) Business

In the PE business, sales of direct imaging system rose due to such factors as increasing data center demand. As a result, net sales in this segment amounted to ¥16,835 million, up 26.5 year on year. On the earnings front, operating income in this segment came to ¥3,358 million, up 61.9 year on year, due mainly to an increase in sales.

2. Financial Position

Assets, Liabilities and Net Assets

Total assets as of March 31, 2023 stood at ¥562,816 million, an increase of ¥103,510 million, or 22.5%, compared with March 31, 2022. This was largely due to an increase in cash and deposits as well as inventories.

Total liabilities amounted to ¥262,889 million, up ¥51,372 million, or 24.3%, compared with the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly attributable to an increase in contract liabilities and notes and accounts payable, including electronically recorded obligations, despite a decrease in convertible bond-type bonds with share acquisition rights.

Total net assets amounted to ¥299,926 million, up ¥52,138 million, or 21.0%, compared with the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly attributable to the recording of profit attributable to owners of parent and the conversion of convertible bond-type bonds with share acquisition rights - the latter causing both an increase in capital surplus and a decrease in treasury stock, despite the payment of cash dividends.

As a result, the equity ratio as of March 31, 2023 stood at 53.3.

3. Cash Flows

The status of cash flows during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 is as follows.

Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to ¥73,906 million, compared with ¥81,752 million provided by operating activities in the previous fiscal year. This was because the sum of income before income taxes, an increase in other current liabilities, an increase in notes and accounts payable including electronically recorded obligations, and other inflows exceeded the sum of income taxes paid, an increase in inventories, an increase in notes and accounts receivable including electronically recorded monetary claims and inventories, and other outflows.

Net cash used in investing activities amounted to ¥12,514 million, compared with ¥9,952 million used in investing activities in the previous fiscal year. This was largely attributable to payments associated with construction of a new factory and other outflows, which exceeded income from the sales of shares of subsidiaries and associates and other inflows.

Net cash used in financing activities totaled ¥20,961 million, compared with ¥4,951 million used in financing activities in the

previous fiscal year. This was due mainly to cash dividends paid and redemption of convertible bond-type bonds with share acquisition rights.

As a result, cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2023 totaled ¥173,660 million, up ¥42,649 million from March 31, 2022, including effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents.
