This graph contains a bar chart showing trends in net interest-bearing debt, which is total interest-bearing debt minus cash and cash equivalents, and a line chart indicating free cash flows.
At the end of the third quarter, net interest-bearing debt, totaling 244.5 billion yen, was up 35.9 billion yen from what it was at the end of the previous fiscal year due to mainly M&A-related expenses for Minebea Power Semiconductor Devices and other companies.
Regarding the free cash flow, we expect 18.1 billion yen for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025 as the operating cash flow increase in the fourth quarter.
