Accordingly, with regard to the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017 that falls under the transitional period, the consolidated fiscal year of the Company and its domestic consolidated subsidiaries whose fiscal year-end date has been March 31 is the nine-month period from April 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017. For overseas consolidated subsidiaries that have already adopted a fiscal year-end date of December 31, the consolidated fiscal period is the 12-month period from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017. [Reference] The following percentages (increase-decrease rates after adjustment) are calculated by comparing the results for nine months (from April 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016) of the previous fiscal year of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries with the forecasts for the fiscal year under review.

1. Qualitative Information on Financial Results, etc., for the First Half Ended September 30, 2017 (1) Details of operating results In the global economy during the first half of the consolidated fiscal year under review, the U.S. economy continued to recover on the back of strong personal consumption, and China and other countries in Asia maintained growth, albeit at a slower pace. The economic outlook, however, remained uncertain due to concerns over an economic downturn caused by political, financial market, and geopolitical risks. In Japan, consumer spending continued to be sluggish despite the trend of economic recovery. The Tokyo Ink Group faced a challenging business environment due to sluggish growth in demand and rising prices of raw materials. In this environment, the Group advanced its businesses under the following policies: to execute its new growth strategy through expansion of the value chains in all corporate activities, to evolve supply chain management (SCM) through manufacturing from a viewpoint with an awareness of innovation, and to promote the reform of the culture by reviewing the management foundation (management resources and governance). Consequently, net sales for the first half under review increased to 135,598 million yen (up 1.9% year on year). Profits also rose with operating profit of 9,535 million yen (up 7.6% year on year), ordinary profit of 9,995 million yen (up 27.0% year on year), and profit attributable to owners of parent of 7,433 million yen (up 41.5% year on year). Results by segment are as follows: (i) Colorants and Functional Materials Sales of high-function pigments and materials for LCD color filters increased based on strong demand for high-definition, large TV sets as end products and recovering demand for smartphones. Sales promotions in China and Taiwan have also led to positive results. While domestic sales of commodity-type pigments, particularly offset printing inks, remained weak, sales of commodity-type pigments for coatings and plastic grew in China and other regions. Domestic sales of plastic colorants for caps for beverage and toiletry containers were strong, and sales of plastic colorants for office equipment recovered in China and Southeast Asia. However, sales of plastic colorants for automobiles were unexpectedly weak in Europe and the United States. As a result, net sales and operating profit in the overall Colorants and Functional Materials rose. Net sales stood at 34,720 million yen (up 8.0% year on year) and operating profit was 3,432 million yen (up 130.0% year on year). (ii) Polymers and Coatings In the coating materials segment, although sales of electromagnetic shielding films struggled, sales of higher-quality conducting adhesive sheets for smartphones increased. Sales of adhesive films related to electronics grew, and the medicated patch business launched in July last year remained strong. In the adhesives segment, demand for use in the packaging of food and other products increased in Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, and other regions. In the adhesive compounds segment, sales were strong for use in electronics in Japan and South Korea; profit was reduced, however, by sluggish sales of those for use in labels and rising prices of raw materials. Sales of can coatings (finishes) for coffee cans remained weak and those for beer cans also struggled due to unseasonable weather in the summer. As a result, both net sales and operating profit rose in the overall Polymers and Coatings. Net sales came to 29,780 million yen (up 2.4% year on year) and operating profit was 3,239 million yen (up 1.4% year on year). 2
(iii) Packaging Materials Although domestic demand for gravure inks for publication continued to decline, domestic sales of mainstay gravure inks for packaging mainly for private brand applications and convenience stores were strong, and domestic sales of gravure inks for construction materials also increased. Overseas sales increased in North America, Central and South America, India, and other regions; growth in Southeast Asia and China, however, remained low, and profit was also reduced by rising prices of raw materials. In the gravure cylinder platemaking segment, while sales from general platemaking for packaging were weak, sales from special precision platemaking increased. As a result, net sales remained virtually unchanged year on year while operating profit decreased in the overall Packaging Materials. Net sales stood at 31,849 million yen (up 0.0% year on year) and operating profit came to 1,259 million yen (down 20.4% year on year). (iv) Printing and Information Given the shrinking domestic information-related print market associated with the progress of digitization, the Group sought to optimize its business scale by product line and streamlined products in Japan, while bolstering sales overseas by expanding global bases. Meanwhile, the Group focused on the development and sale of highly sensitive UV ink using leading-edge technology and other products such as inkjet ink for on-demand printing, thereby facilitating business growth. Meanwhile, domestic demand for inks for commercial printing of circulars and other materials, existing information publications including newspapers and magazines, and related materials remained weaker than expected. A decline in capacity utilization at printing companies in China and Southeast Asia due to an economic slowdown and environmental regulations also caused a fall in sales. As a result, both net sales and operating profit in the overall Printing and Information decreased. Net sales amounted to 39,041 million yen (down 3.6% year on year) and operating profit was 1,321 million yen (down 16.3% year on year). (v) Others This segment covers businesses not included in the above segments and services provided mainly by TOYO INK SC HOLDINGS CO., LTD. Net sales in this segment increased to 3,073 million yen (up 3.2% year on year). Operating profit, however, decreased to 294 million yen (down 71.1% year on year), due primarily to an increase in development expenses for the integrated global systems at the Holdings. (2) Details of financial position Total assets at the end of the first half under review stood at 373,360 million yen, up 8,145 million yen from the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year. Liabilities totaled 144,795 million yen, up 728 million yen from the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year. Net assets came to 228,564 million yen, up 8,873 million yen from the end of the previous consolidated fiscal year. The last day of the first half under review fell on a public holiday in Japan, which resulted in an increase in accounts receivable-trade and accounts payable-trade. Additionally, investment securities, deferred tax liabilities, and a valuation difference on available-for-sale securities rose, reflecting increased stock prices in Japan. Short-term loans payable decreased and long-term loans payable increased due to refinancing after reducing the amount by appropriating funds on hand as loans payable reached maturity. 3
(Status of cash flow) Cash and cash equivalents ( cash ) at the end of the first half of the fiscal year under review stood at 44,875 million yen, up 742 million yen from the balance at the beginning of the fiscal year under review. Cash provided by operating activities stood at 11,931 million yen, an increase of 3,796 million yen year on year. This was primarily attributable to an increase in cash flows from income before income taxes and a decline in cash flows from income taxes paid. Cash used in investment activities was 2,827 million yen, a fall of 2,931 million yen year on year, largely as a result of a cash outflow from purchases of property, plant, and equipment. Cash used in financing activities came to 8,164 million yen, an increase of 5,323 million yen year on year due chiefly to cash outflows from the repayment of loans payable and dividends paid.
