Consolidated Business Results

For the third quarter of fiscal 2011, the three months ended December 31 2010, consolidated net sales decreased 1.7% year on year, to Yen117,035 million (US$1,444.9 million). Despite a strong performance of Blu-ray Disc drive-related products, the negative impact of the Japanese yen's appreciation, coupled with the withdrawal from the plasma display business in fiscal 2010, resulted in a decline in net sales.

Pioneer posted operating income of Yen5,060 million (US$62.5 million), a 5.0-fold increase from the third quarter of fiscal 2010. Despite the negative impact of the Japanese yen's appreciation, this increase primarily reflected improvement in the gross profit margin and lower selling, general and administrative expenses, mainly from restructuring and cost reduction. Net income was Yen2,668 million (US$32.9 million), compared with a Yen3,873 million net loss in the third quarter of fiscal 2010. In addition to the growth in operating income, this reflected the absence of Yen1,173 million of restructuring expenses recorded in the year-earlier period.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2011, the average value of the Japanese yen appreciated 8.6% against the U.S. dollar and 18.2% against the euro, compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2010.

Car Electronics sales decreased 4.3% year on year to Yen61,967 million (US$765.0 million), due to lower sales of car audio products and the impact of the Japanese yen's appreciation, despite growth in car navigation systems. Sales of car navigation systems rose, with an increase in consumer-market sales, supported partly by the roll-out of new products in Japan, more than offsetting a decline in sales of OEM products in North America and Japan. In car audio products, consumer-market sales decreased as a result of a decline in Central and South America due to intense competition, despite a rise in North America. OEM sales decreased as well, on declines in China and Japan. For Car Electronics overall, OEM sales accounted for approximately 44% of segment sales, compared with roughly 47% in the third quarter of fiscal 2010.

By geographic region, sales in Japan were mostly unchanged from the third quarter of fiscal 2010 at Yen27,084 million (US$334.4 million), while overseas sales decreased 6.9% to Yen34,883 million (US$430.7 million).

This segment recorded operating income of Yen3,990 million (US$49.3 million), an increase of 83.4% year on year, on an improvement in the gross profit margin from the effects of restructuring and cost reductions, despite the decline in net sales.

Home Electronics sales rose 13.1% year on year to Yen44,741 million (US$552.4 million). Although sales of DVD drives decreased, continued growth in sales of Blu-ray Disc drive-related products, combined with higher sales of cable-TV set-top boxes in Japan and AV receivers primarily in North America, resulted in the increase in segment sales.

By geographic region, sales in Japan increased 81.7% to Yen26,888 million (US$332.0 million), while overseas sales decreased 27.9% to Yen17,853 million (US$220.4 million).

This segment recorded operating income of Yen1,743 million (US$21.5 million), compared with a Yen2,251 million operating loss in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, primarily from sales increase in addition to a reduction in fixed costs as a result of restructuring.

In the Others segment, sales decreased 29.9% year on year to Yen10,327 million (US$127.5 million), due to lower sales of electronic devices and parts, and a decline in royalty revenue from patents related to optical disc technologies, despite higher sales of factory automation systems.

By geographic region, sales in Japan decreased 26.0% to Yen6,577 million (US$81.2 million), while overseas sales decreased 35.9% to Yen3,750 million (US$46.3 million).

This segment recorded an operating loss of Yen365 million (US$4.5 million), compared with positive operating income of Yen1,301 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, mainly from decline in profit of royalty revenue from patents and electronic devices and parts, despite improvement in factory automation systems.

For the nine months ended December 31, 2010, consolidated net sales increased 6.5% year on year to Yen343,716 million (US$4,243.4 million). Operating income was Yen11,729 million (US$144.8 million), compared with a Yen21,757 million operating loss in the same period of the previous fiscal year. Net income improved to a Yen10,322 million (US$127.4 million) profit, compared with a Yen44,730 million net loss in the corresponding period of fiscal 2010 that included restructuring expenses of Yen19,549 million.

Notes:1.Operating income (loss) in each business segment represents operating income (loss) before elimination of intersegment transactions.

2.In the first quarter of fiscal 2011, AV accessories were reclassified from the Others segment to the Home Electronics segment. Consequently, figures for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 were also reclassified in accordance with the presentation used in the third quarter of fiscal 2011.

Consolidated Financial Position

Total assets as of December 31, 2010, were Yen376,925 million (US$4 653.4 million), a decrease of Yen12,794 million from March 31, 2010. Although cash and deposits and inventories grew, there were decreases in property, plant and equipment, trade receivables, and investment securities. Cash and deposits increased Yen10,831 million to Yen101,076 million (US$1,247.9 million), while inventories grew Yen9,748 million to Yen64,798 million (US$800.0 million), reflecting increased inventories of Blu-ray Disc drive-related products in line with increased sales projections of these products in the fourth-quarter. Property, plant and equipment decreased Yen17,452 million to Yen72,612 million (US$896.4 million), from the sale of the Company's former Head Office and other assets as well as curtailed capital expenditures. Trade receivables decreased Yen6,304 million to Yen64,496 million (US$796.2 million), reflecting the Japanese yen's appreciation. Investment securities decreased Yen4,443 million to Yen12,577 million (US$155.3 million), mainly from a decline in the market value of equity holdings.

Total liabilities as of December 31, 2010, were Yen291,795 million (US$3 602.4 million), a decrease of Yen7,270 million from March 31, 2010. Although trade payables increased Yen8,354 million on the growth in inventories, borrowings decreased Yen6,841 million and accrued expenses decreased Yen3,020 million.

Total equity as of December 31, 2010, was Yen85,130 million (US$1051.0 million), a decrease of Yen5,524 million from March 31, 2010. Despite the recording of Yen10,322 million (US$127.4 million) of net income, foreign currency translation adjustments decreased Yen12,317 million as a result of the Japanese yen's appreciation, and unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities decreased Yen3,735 million on a decline in the market value of equity holdings.

Cash Flows

During the nine months ended December 31, 2010, operating activities provided net cash of Yen23,496 million (US$290.1 million). The main factors were income before income taxes and minority interests of Yen14 550 million (US$179.6 million), the addback of non-cash expenses, namely depreciation and amortization of Yen23,161 million (US$285.9 million), and an increase in trade payables of Yen13,177 million (US$162.7 million). These factors outweighed decreases of Yen14,228 million (US$175.7 million) from increased inventories, Yen5,211 million (US$64.3 million) for the payment of income taxes, and a Yen5,073 million (US$62.6 million) gain on sales and disposal of noncurrent assets. Net cash used in investing activities was Yen1,418 million (US$17.5 million). This principally reflected the payment of Yen15,884 million (US$196.1 million) for new purchases of noncurrent assets, despite proceeds of Yen13,284 million (US$164.0 million) from sales of noncurrent assets and Yen1,725 million (US$21.3 million) from the sales of investment securities. Net cash used in financing activities was Yen6 549 million (US$80.9 million), mostly for the repayment of borrowings. In addition, the Japanese yen's appreciation resulted in a Yen4,684 million (US$57.8 million) decrease in the value of foreign currency-denominated cash and cash equivalents.

As a result, cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2010 totaled Yen94,987 million (US$1,172.7 million), up Yen10,845 million from March 31, 2010.

Information with Respect to Going Concern Assumption

Pioneer's financial position remained under strain in the previous fiscal year, because of a sharp drop in net sales and large losses. However, Pioneer's financial position has improved substantially, mainly as a result of measures implemented in March 2010, including stable funding secured through the refinancing of loans from financial institutions, and capital increases through an international offering.

During the first three quarters of fiscal 2011, Pioneer restored profitability at both the operating income and net income levels, supported by a large increase in net sales compared with the year-earlier period. As in fiscal 2010, Pioneer has continued to sell assets that have a low degree of relevance to its main businesses. Cash and deposits as of the end of December 2010 were Yen101.1 billion. In light of the above, Pioneer has sufficient cash for the redemption of the Yen60.0 billion aggregate principal amount of its convertible bonds due in March 2011.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company believes that material uncertainty about Pioneer's ability to continue its business activities into the future has been resolved.
