1. Overview of Operating Results and Consolidated Financial Conditions

(1) Overview of Operating Results

(i) Business Environment during the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2024

With respect to the global economy in the current consolidated fiscal year, raw material and energy prices that had soared since the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic began to fall during the previous fiscal year. As a result, the inflation rate had fallen to around 2% by the end of the current fiscal year, which is the medium- to long-term target of central banks in major countries. Furthermore, although the increase in policy interest rates, mainly in Europe and the United States, has eased slightly, the yen's depreciation continues.

In the electronics industry, where the Tokyo Electron (TEL) Group operates, semiconductor manufacturers began to reduce production from the second half of the previous consolidated fiscal year as demand for end products such as PCs and smartphones had peaked. As a result, inventory adjustments have progressed, and the supply-demand balance for semiconductors has gradually improved during the current fiscal year.

Under these circumstances, capital investment in semiconductor production equipment, which was entering an adjustment phase, showed signs of bottoming out. Although capital investment for memory and cutting-edge logic/foundrysemiconductors was still generally restrained, there was an increase in inquiries about advanced package equipment for generative AI applications. Additionally, capital investment in China, which aims to improve their semiconductor self-sufficiency rate, for the mature generations of semiconductors used for IoT, automotive, and industrial applications, continued their strong growth trend from the previous fiscal year. Considering the transition to a data society, stemming from the expansion of information and communication technology, and efforts toward realizing a decarbonized society, the role of semiconductors in supporting electronic devices and the importance of their technological innovation is increasing. Therefore, further growth is expected in the semiconductor production equipment market in the medium- to long-term.

From the current consolidated fiscal year, information by segment has been omitted, due to the change of the reportable segments to a single segment of "Semiconductor Production Equipment". For details, please refer to "Notes" on page 15 for further information.

(ii) Overview of Profit and Loss during the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2024

In this environment, the consolidated business results for the fiscal year under review are as follows.

Net sales for the fiscal year decreased 17.1% from the previous fiscal year to 1,830,527 million yen. Domestic net sales decreased 22.9% from the previous year to 184,982 million yen, while overseas net sales decreased 16.4% to 1,645,544 million yen to account for 89.9% of net sales.

Cost of sales decreased 18.3% to 1,000,257 million yen and gross profit decreased 15.7% to 830,269 million yen. As a result, the gross profit margin increased 0.8 points to 45.4%.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased 2.0% to 374,006 million yen, while the ratio to consolidated net sales increased 3.9 points to 20.5%.

As a result, operating income decreased 26.1% to 456,263 million yen and operating profit ratio decreased 3.1 points to 24.9%. After netting of non-operating income of 12,164 million yen and non-operating expenses of 5,242 million yen,

TOKYO ELECTRON

ordinary income decreased 25.9% to 463,185 million yen.

Income before income taxes was 473,439 million (year-on-year decrease of 24.2%) and net income attributable to owners of parent was 363,963 million yen (year-on-year decrease of 22.8%).

As a result, net income per share was 783.75 yen compared to net income per share of 1,007.82 yen in the previous fiscal year.

(2) Overview of Consolidated Financial Conditions

Current assets at the end of the current fiscal year were 1,700,451 million yen, a decrease of 40,507 million yen compared to the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to a decrease of 87,883 million yen in prepaid consumption tax, a decrease of 73,466 million yen in notes and accounts receivable - trade, and contract assets, and an increase of 110,749 million yen in inventories.

Property, plant and equipment increased by 78,278 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year, to 337,366 million yen.

Intangible assets increased by 3,824 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year, to 32,383 million yen. Investments and other assets increased by 103,274 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year, to 386,260 million yen.

As a result, total assets increased by 144,868 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year, to 2,456,462 million yen.

Current liabilities decreased by 17,994 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year, to 611,899 million yen. This was largely due to a decrease of 23,957 million yen in trade notes and accounts payable, and an increase of 8,832 million yen in income taxes payable.

Long-term liabilities increased by 2,207 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year, to 84,383 million yen.

Net assets increased by 160,655 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year, to 1,760,180 million yen. This was largely due to an increase of 363,963 million yen resulting from recording net income attributable to owners of parent and a decrease resulting from the payment of 202,457 million yen in year-end dividends for the previous fiscal year and interim dividends for the current fiscal year. As a result, the equity ratio was 71.1%.

(3) Overview of Consolidated Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the current fiscal year decreased by 10,862 million yen compared to the end of the previous fiscal year, to 461,608 million yen. The combined balance including 10,939 million yen in time deposits and short-term investments with maturities of more than three months that are not included in cash and cash equivalents was 472,548 million yen, a decrease of 552 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. The overall situation regarding cash flows for the fiscal year was as described below.

Cash flows from operating activities were positive 434,720 million yen, an increase of 8,450 million yen compared to the end of the previous fiscal year. The major positive factors were 473,439 million yen in income before income taxes, a 88,092 million yen decrease in prepaid consumption tax, and a 84,848 million yen decrease in notes and accounts receivable - trade, and contract assets. The major negative factors were 118,935 million yen in payment of income taxes, and a 97,712 million yen increase in inventories.

5

TOKYO ELECTRON

Cash flows from investing activities were negative 125,148 million yen compared to negative 41,756 million yen in the same period of the previous fiscal year. This was largely due to the payment of 116,993 million yen for the purchase of property, plant and equipment.

Cash flows from financing activities were negative 325,012 million yen compared to negative 256,534 million yen in the same period of the previous fiscal year. This was largely due to the payment of 202,457 million yen in dividends, and the payment of 120,028 million yen for the purchase of treasury stock.

(4) Future forecast

Due to the importance of innovating semiconductor technologies (including the aspects of high capacity, high speed, high reliability, and low power consumption) stemming from the transition to a data society accompanying the expansion of information and communication technology and efforts toward realizing a decarbonized society, the semiconductor production equipment market is expected to further grow in the future. Therefore, the consolidated financial forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025 are as follows.

Note: The financial forecasts and estimates stated in this announcement are based on certain assumptions judged to be reasonable by the Company in light of information currently available concerning economic conditions in Japan and overseas, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, and other factors that may have an impact on performance. The Company does not promise that the forecasts or estimates will be accurate.

They are therefore susceptible to the impact of many uncertainties, including market conditions, competition, the launching of new products (and their success or failure), and global conditions in the semiconductor related industry. Consequently, actual sales and profits may differ substantially from the projections stated in this announcement.

(5) Basic Policy on Profit Allocation and Payment of Dividends for the Current and Next Fiscal Years

TEL utilizes capital reserves to raise corporate value through earnings growth and provide returns directly to shareholders by concentrating investment in high-growth areas and linking dividend payments to business performance. Basic policy concerning shareholder return is as follows.

Shareholder Return Policy

  • Our dividend policy is to link dividend payments to business performance on an ongoing basis and a payout ratio is around 50% based on net income attributable to owners of parent, with the conditions that an annual dividend per share is not less than 50 yen. Besides, TEL will review our dividend policy if TEL does not generate net income for two consecutive fiscal years.
  • TEL will flexibly consider share buybacks.
