“Sales and operating income increased due to an increase in car production mainly in developed countries, in addition to the impact of the weak yen,” said Nobuaki Katoh, president and CEO.

“For the new fiscal year, we expect sales to increase and income to decrease from the previous year. This is due to the decrease in production volume within Japan, in addition to investment costs for initiating new products and to increase capabilities in overseas plants for future competitiveness,” added Katoh.
