Investor Meeting Presentation for 2Q FY 3/2015 held on November 5, 2014

For the second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015, net sales were 117,025 million yen. That's up 22.6% from the same period last year and an increase of 17.6% over the previous quarter. Operating income jumped to 14,237 million yen for an increase of 50.4% from the same period last year and an increase of 35.3% from the previous quarter. Net income also jumped to 10,985 million yen for an increase of 85.6% from the same period last year and an increase of 60.8% from the previous quarter. Net sales, operating income, ordinary income and net income for the quarter all hit record highs since we started announcing quarterly results in 2001.

The major factor driving performance up was surging LED backlight sales and profits due to Minebea's increasing share of the growing market for high-end smart phones. In addition to that, many businesses improved including the facts that motor profitability improved due to various different cost cutting measures made in recent years while sales and profits of rod-ends were lifted by soaring commercial aircraft production.

We estimate that foreign currency translations have resulted in a year-on-year gain in net sales of approximately 4.2 billion yen, and up 0.1 billion yen from the previous quarter. Currency translations have also yielded a year-on-year operating income gain of approximately 1.3 billion yen, but down 0.6 billion yen from the previous quarter.
