KARIYA, Japan, April 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — DENSO, a leading mobility supplier, today announced global financial results for its fiscal year, ending March 31, 2023:
- Consolidated revenue totaled 6,401.3 billion yen (US$47.9 billion), a 16.1 percent increase from the previous year.
- Consolidated operating profit totaled 426.1 billion yen (US$3.2 billion), a 24.9 percent increase from the previous year.
- Consolidated profit attributable to owners of the parent company totaled 314.6 billion yen (US$2.4 billion), a 19.2 percent increase from the previous year.
“Revenue and operating profit increased compared to the previous year, reaching their highest-ever levels, due to sales recovery and expansion, foreign exchange gains and profit improvements,” said Yasushi Matsui, CFO, senior executive officer and member of the Board of Directors of DENSO CORPORATION. “In the next fiscal year, we forecast 6,300.0 billion yen (US$47.2 billion) in revenue and 510.0 billion yen (US$3.8 billion) in operating income. Revenue will be based on strong sales expansions in focus areas. On the other hand, we also forecast the potential risk of a vehicle production cut of around 10 percent, given uncertainties in the external environment. Operating income will be based on the extent of growth, as well as disciplined control of fixed costs and further strengthening of our ability to respond to fluctuations. The annual dividend for the concluded fiscal year is 185 yen, a 5 yen increase from the previous announcement, and the forecast for the next fiscal year is 190 yen, a 5 yen increase from the previous year. We will continue to improve DOE levels over the long term and in a stable manner.”
