Investor Meeting Presentation for 2Q FY 3/2016 held on November 5, 2015

Second quarter net sales for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2016 soared to hit a quarterly record high while operating income was the highest ever for any second quarter.
The significant bump in sales can be explained by the higher price of the new LED backlights with more functions that are being used in high-end smartphones as well as the Sartorius Mechatronics T&H GmbH acquisition. Despite increased costs for ramping up LED backlight production and a quality control issue at NHBB, operating income soared above the previous quarter's total. This increase was due to cost cutting measures that boosted the profitability of various motors, a rebounding HDD market that pushed pivot assembly and HDD spindle motor sales up, and, after adding in three full months of results from Sartorius Mechatronics T&H GmbH, a spike in profits for measuring components.
We estimate that foreign currency translations have pushed net sales up 2.0 billion yen from the previous quarter with a year-on-year gain of approximately 20.7 billion yen in addition to a 2.6 billion yen operating income increase over the previous quarter with a year-on-year gain of approximately 4.6 billion yen.
