With regard to the principal markets served by Kyocera Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Kyocera Group” or “Kyocera”), the first half saw rising global demand for smartphones in the digital consumer equipment market, and rising demand in automotive markets mainly in the United States and Europe.
In comparison with the prior first half, Kyocera recorded increased consolidated net sales due mainly to growth in the Semiconductor Parts, Electronic Device, and Fine Ceramic Parts Groups, led by communications- and automotive-related components, as well as increased sales from the Information Equipment Group in the United States. These increases were more than enough to offset sales decreases against the prior first half in the Telecommunications Equipment Group and Applied Ceramic Products Group including the solar energy business. Consolidated first-half profits also increased over the prior first half, reflecting profit increases in the Components Business and one-time profit from a sale of assets in the “Others” reporting segment. Together, these profit gains more than offset a decline in profits from the Equipment Business.
In summary, consolidated net sales increased 1.2% over the prior period, to JPY722,577 (USD6,021) million; profit from operations increased 13.1%, to JPY61,949 (USD516) million; income before income taxes increased 14.5%, to JPY78,000 (USD650) million; and net income attributable to shareholders of Kyocera Corporation increased 16.4%, to JPY50,792 (USD423) million.

During the second half, the economic environment faces concerns regarding the slowing of the Chinese economy. At the same time, uncertainty is growing with respect to the economies of Europe and emerging countries. Manufacturing volume in the digital consumer equipment market is expected to fall below levels estimated in April 2015, and the pace of expansion in automotive and industrial equipment markets is expected to slow as well. Although Kyocera will strive to expand business despite these conditions, management expects lower aggregate demand in principal markets for both the components and equipment segments than was projected at the beginning of fiscal 2016. Consequently, Kyocera has revised the consolidated forecasts it announced in April 2015 as follows.
