1. BUSINESS RESULTS, FINANCIAL CONDITION AND PROSPECTS

(1) Business Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2016

Economic Situation and Business Environment

During the three months ended June 30, 2016 (“the first quarter”), the Japanese economy was sluggish due to continued stagnation in personal consumption. Overseas, the U.S. economy was solid on the back of growth in personal consumption, while the European economy registered only moderate growth and growth rate in the Chinese economy continued to slow. As for exchange rates, the yen appreciated compared with the three months ended June 30, 2015 (“the previous first quarter”).

With regard to the principal markets for Kyocera Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Kyocera Group” or “Kyocera”), the automotive market remained firm due to an increase in sales volume primarily in Asian markets. In contrast, in the information and communications market, components demand slowed due to smartphone production adjustments. Demand in the domestic solar energy market also declined due to a reduction in purchasing price under the feed-in tariff.

Consolidated Financial Results

During the first quarter, sales in the Equipment Business remained flat compared with the previous first quarter, while sales in the Components Business generally decreased. As a result, consolidated net sales for the first quarter decreased by ¥19,262 million, or 5.7%, compared with the previous first quarter, to ¥319,985 million.

Profit from operations decreased by ¥20,313 million, or 62.3%, to ¥12,270 million, compared with the previous first quarter. Income before income taxes decreased by ¥22,212 million, or 47.2%, to ¥24,798 million, and net income attributable to shareholders of Kyocera Corporation for the first quarter decreased by ¥14,122 million, or 44.7%, to ¥17,453 million, compared with the previous first quarter, respectively. It should be noted that profit from a sale of assets in the amount of approximately ¥12 billion was recorded in the previous first quarter.

Average exchange rates for the first quarter were ¥108 to the U.S. dollar, marking appreciation of ¥13 (approximately 11%) and ¥122 to the Euro, marking appreciation of ¥12 (approximately 9%) from the previous first quarter. As a result, net sales and income before income taxes after translation into yen for the first quarter were pushed down by approximately ¥25 billion and approximately ¥5 billion compared with the previous first quarter, respectively.

Consolidated Results by Reporting Segment

1) Fine Ceramic Parts Group

Sales in this reporting segment were roughly on par with the previous first quarter due to a decrease in sales of components for information and communications market, despite an increase in sales of automotive components. Operating profit decreased due primarily to the impact of a change in product mix.

2) Semiconductor Parts Group

Sales in this reporting segment decreased compared with the previous first quarter due mainly to the impact of yen’s appreciation. Operating profit decreased due to the absence of the profit from the sale of assets recorded in the previous first quarter in the amount of approximately ¥12 billion, the impact of yen’s appreciation and a lower sales of products for the communications market.

3) Applied Ceramic Products Group

Sales and Operating profit in this reporting segment decreased compared with the previous first quarter due to a decline in sales in the solar energy business mainly as a result of a decline in demand in Japan.

4) Electronic Device Group

Sales and operating profit in this reporting segment decreased compared with the previous first quarter due to a decline in sales of components for the smartphone and industrial equipment markets as a result of production adjustments in these markets and due to the impact of the yen’s appreciation.

5) Telecommunications Equipment Group

Sales in this reporting segment increased compared with the previous first quarter due to an increase in sales of mobile phones with unique features such as higher durability in Japan and overseas. As a result, operating loss was reduced compared with the previous first quarter.

6) Information Equipment Group

Sales and operating profit in this reporting segment decreased compared with the previous first quarter due to the impact of the yen’s appreciation, despite a flat shipment of equipment compared with the previous first quarter as a result of active sales promotion activities.

Net Sales by Geographic Area

1) Japan

2) Asia

Sales in Asia decreased compared with the previous first quarter due primarily to a decline in sales in the Semiconductor Parts Group and the Fine Ceramic Parts Group as well as to the effect of the yen’s appreciation.

3) United States of America

Sales in the United States of America decreased compared with the previous first quarter due mainly to a decline in sales in the Information Equipment Group and the Electronic Device Group which were affected by the effect of the yen’s appreciation.

4) Europe

(2) Financial Condition

Consolidated Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2016 decreased by ¥29,005 million to ¥345,015 million from ¥374,020 million at March 31, 2016.

1) Cash flows from operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the first quarter increased by ¥4,767 million to ¥37,459 million from ¥32,692 million for the previous first quarter. This mainly reflected that an increase in cash inflow due to the changes in accounts payable exceeded a decrease in cash inflow due to the changes in accounts receivables.

2) Cash flows from investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the first quarter decreased by ¥19,974 million to ¥24,436 million from ¥44,410 million for the previous first quarter. This was due mainly to an increase in maturities and sales of securities, which exceeded a decrease in proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment.

3) Cash flows from financing activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the first quarter increased by ¥125 million to ¥24,711 million from ¥24,586 million for the previous first quarter. This was due mainly to increases in payments of short-term and long-term debts, which exceeded a decrease in dividends paid.

(3) Consolidated Financial Forecasts for the Year Ending March 31, 2017

In the first quarter, demand for core products was largely in line with initial projections. From the three months ending September 30, 2016 (“the second quarter”) onward, Kyocera forecasts an increase in component demand due to recovery in production of smartphones. Kyocera also forecasts an increase in sales in the solar energy business in both the public and commercial sectors and growth in sales in the Equipment Business. Based on these forecasts, Kyocera has not made any changes to the sales and profit forecasts for the year ending March 31, 2017 that were announced on April 27, 2016.

In light of recent circumstances, Kyocera has revised assumed exchange rates for the second quarter onward from ¥110 to ¥105 against the U.S. dollar and from ¥120 to ¥115 against the Euro compared with the forecasts made in April. As a result, full-year forecasts of average exchange rates for fiscal 2017 have been revised to ¥106 to the U.S. dollar and ¥117 to the Euro.
