Musical Instruments

Revenue ¥239.0 billion (-11.3%), core operating profit ¥32.4 billion (-14.1%)

Audio Equipment

Revenue ¥103.8 billion (-9.2%), core operating profit ¥7.1 billion (-17.5%)

Regarding audio products, although sales of sound bars and other equipment increased due to demand for stay home, this was not enough to offset the decline in sales in the first half of the fiscal year. As a result, revenue of audio products declined overall. Revenue of professional audio equipment declined due to stagnant markets for live events and audio equipment installation. ICT equipment revenue rose due to an increase in sales of conference systems and other products driven by strong demand.

Revenue of the audio equipment business overall declined by ¥10.6 billion year on year to ¥103.8 billion, including a ¥0.4 billion negative impact in the foreign exchange.

  • Outlook for Performance in FY2022.3
    Year-on-Year Increase in Revenue and Profit, Taking into Account the Recovery in Market Conditions
