Overview

(Year ended March 31, 2022)

The economy in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 generally continued to see recovery in the corporate sector in the U.S., Europe and Japan. The household sector continued to recover in the U.S. and Europe, while in Japan there was the downward pressure stemming from the novel coronavirus diseases (COVID-19), despite recovery owing to normalization of economic activities. China continued to see recovery in export and manufacturing, while the pace of recovery in the household sector slowed down. There was also the impact of the rise in material prices and logistics costs as well as a prolonged components shortage.

In this environment, the Mitsubishi Electric Group has been working even harder than before to uplift profitability by strengthening its business portfolio strategy towards sustainable growth, while continuously implementing initiatives to strengthen its competitiveness and business structure.

As a result, the business performance for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 is as follows.

Financial Position

(Year ended March 31, 2022)

Total assets as of the end of this fiscal year increased compared to the end of the previous fiscal year by 310.0 billion yen to 5,107.9 billion yen. The change in balance of total assets was mainly attributable to increases in inventories by 215.8 billion yen and other non-current assets by 100.4 billion yen.

Inventories increased due primarily to recovery in demand for Industrial Automation Systems and Home Appliances segments as well as the impact of semiconductor and electronic components shortages. Other non-current assets increased due mainly to an increase in net defined benefit assets mainly reflecting a rise in stock prices.

Total liabilities increased compared to the end of the previous fiscal year by 83.2 billion yen to 2,010.5 billion yen due primarily to increases in trade payables by 59.8 billion yen and accrued expenses by 24.2 billion yen. Bonds and borrowings decreased compared to the end of the previous fiscal year by 31.7 billion yen to 217.1 billion yen, with the ratio of bonds and borrowings to total assets recording 4.3%, representing a 0.9 point decrease compared to the end of the previous fiscal year.

Mitsubishi Electric Corporation stockholders’ equity increased by 221.6 billion yen compared to the end of the previous fiscal year to 2,975.9 billion yen. The stockholders’ equity ratio was recorded at 58.3%, representing a 0.9 point increase compared to the end of the previous fiscal year. These changes mainly result from increases due to recording a net profit attributable to Mitsubishi Electric Corporation stockholders of 203.4 billion yen and accumulated other comprehensive income by 72.7 billion yen mainly reflecting the yen depreciating against other currencies, despite a decrease due to a dividend payment of 85.7 billion yen.
