Consolidated Financial Performance and Financial Position

1. Overview of the Six Months Ended September 30, 2024

During the period under review (from April 1, 2024 to September 30, 2024), as for the global economy,
the U.S. remained strong and Europe recovered, but China continued to stagnate. The Japanese
economy continued to recover gradually.

Under such circumstances, Toray Group, starting from fiscal 2023, has been promoting its Medium-
Term Management Program “Project AP-G 2025,” aiming to achieve sound, sustainable growth
through the implementation of five basic strategies of “Sustainable Growth,” “Ultimate Value
Creation,” “Product and Operational Excellence,” “Enhancement of People-Centric Management,”
and “Risk Management and Governance.”

As a result, consolidated revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2024, compared with the
same period of the previous fiscal year, increased 7.9% to ¥1,294.1 billion, and core operating
income (Note) rose 62.6% to ¥79.1 billion. Operating income increased 78.9% to ¥79.5 billion and
profit attributable to owners of parent rose 92.3% to ¥55.5 billion.

Financial performance by segment is as described below.

Financial Performance by Segment:

Fibers & Textiles


The apparel applications were strong overall, despite the stagnation in the European market and the
continued impact of the intensified competition with overseas products.

The industrial applications witnessed a demand recovery trend in the automobile applications but
were affected by safety test scandals of Japanese automobile manufacturers and the intensifying
competition in the Chinese EV market.

As a result, revenue of the overall Fibers & Textiles segment, compared with the same period of the
previous fiscal year, increased 7.1% to ¥515.5 billion, and core operating income rose 26.6% to
¥34.4 billion.

Performance Chemicals
In the resins and chemicals businesses, while the resins business was affected by the production
decline in the Japanese automobile industry, demand recovered in the non-automobile applications
for China and ASEAN. The chemicals business remained strong.

The films business saw electronic parts-related demand growth due to rebound from inventory
adjustment in the supply chain.

In the electronic & information materials business, there was recovery in demand for OLED-related
materials and circuit materials.

As a result, revenue of the overall Performance Chemicals segment, compared with the same period
of the previous fiscal year, increased 10.3% to ¥477.5 billion, and core operating income rose 134.2%
to ¥34.0 billion.
Carbon Fiber Composite Materials
The aerospace applications continued its steady recovery, and there were signs of gradual recovery
in the wind turbine blade applications.

As a result, revenue of the overall Carbon Fiber Composite Materials segment, compared with the
same period of the previous fiscal year, increased 8.3% to ¥152.8 billion, and core operating income
rose 54.4% to ¥11.7 billion.

Environment & Engineering


The water treatment business posted increase both in revenue and core operating income on the
back of strong demand as well as shipments for a large-scale project in the Middle East. Further, an
engineering subsidiary in Japan also performed strongly.

As a result, revenue of the overall Environment & Engineering segment increased 2.6% to ¥114.5
billion compared with the same period of the previous fiscal year, and core operating income rose
15.9% to ¥11.8 billion.

Life Science
The pharmaceutical business was affected by the impact of the penetration of the generic versions,
the NHI drug price revision, and by the stagnant overseas sales volume.

In the medical devices business, shipment of dialyzers for hemodiafiltration was steady in Japan and
overseas, but the business was affected by the soaring prices of raw materials and fuels.

As a result, revenue of overall Life Science segment, compared with the same period of the previous
fiscal year, increased 3.2% to ¥25.6 billion, while core operating income fell to a loss of ¥0.6 billion,
a decline of ¥0.1 billion.

Note:
Core operating income is calculated by excluding income and expenses due to non-recurring factors
from operating income.

2. Analysis of Financial Position

As of September 30, 2024, Toray Group’s assets and liabilities were both affected by the decrease
in translated yen from its overseas subsidiaries, due to appreciation in Japanese yen.

Total assets stood at ¥3,365.9 billion, a decrease of ¥100.7 billion compared with the end of the
previous fiscal year, due primarily to decreases in trade and other receivables.

Total liabilities came to ¥1,527.6 billion, a decrease of ¥92.6 billion compared with the end of the
previous fiscal year, owing mainly to decreases in bonds and borrowings.

Total equity stood at ¥1,838.3 billion, a decrease of ¥8.1 billion, compared with the end of the
previous fiscal year, due primarily to a decrease in other components of equity despite an increase
in retained earnings. Moreover, equity attributable to owners of parent stood at ¥1,726.8 billion.
Finally, equity ratio as of September 30, 2024, rose to 51.3%, a 1.2 percentage-point increase
compared with the level at the end of the previous fiscal year.
3. Forecast for the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2025

The global economy is likely to gradually recover along with the decline in inflation rate and monetary
easing. The Japanese economy is also expecting a gradual recovery. However, the downward risks
for the economy in Japan and overseas include potential changes in fiscal and trade policies in the
U.S. following the presidential election, prolonged real estate recession in China, and impact on
consumption in the U.S. and Europe caused by their financial policies as well as changes in the Bank
of Japan’s monetary policy and foreign exchange fluctuations.

Under such circumstances, Toray Group will promote the basic strategies under the Medium-Term
Management Program “Project AP-G 2025” and carry out its business operation under the
anticipation of uncertainties.

For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025, Toray revised its full-year consolidated forecasts, taking
into consideration its business performance for the first six months and business environment. It now
expects consolidated revenue of ¥2,590.0 billion, core operating income of ¥145.0 billion, and profit
attributable to owners of parent of ¥88.0 billion. The calculation of consolidated earnings forecasts
from October 2024 is based on an assumed foreign currency exchange rate of ¥140.0 to the U.S.
dollar.
