1. Review of operations and financial condition
(1) Review of operations
a) | Summary of the results of operations for the year under review |
For the year ended March 31, 2011, revenues of the Company increased ¥3.0 billion (0.3 %), to ¥933.7 billion from the prior year. In the domestic market, revenues in Farm & Industrial Machinery, Water & Environment Systems and Social Infrastructure decreased due to weak demand for farm equipment and public works related products and the effects of the Great East Japan Earthquake. As a result domestic revenues decreased ¥23.8 billion (4.7 %), to ¥477.9 billion from the prior year. In overseas markets, revenues increased ¥26.8 billion (6.2 %), to ¥455.8 billion from the prior year. While revenues in Water & Environment Systems, Social Infrastructure and Other decreased, revenues in Farm & Industrial Machinery steadily increased due to increases in revenues in North America and Europe supported by sustained economic recovery. The ratio of overseas revenues to consolidated revenues was 48.8 %, 2.7 percentage points higher than the prior year end.
Operating income increased ¥16.4 billion (23.5 %), to ¥86.1 billion from the prior year due to an increase in overseas revenues in Farm & Industrial Machinery and company-wide cost reduction. Income before income taxes and equity in net income of affiliated companies increased ¥17.8 billion (24.2 %), to ¥91.3 billion due to an increase in operating income and other income. Income taxes were ¥30.7 billion (representing an effective tax rate of 33.6 %), and equity in net income of affiliated companies was ¥0.5 billion. Accordingly, net income increased ¥13.2 billion (27.6 %), to ¥61.1 billion. After deducting ¥6.3 billion of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests, net income attributable to Kubota Corporation was ¥54.8 billion, ¥12.5 billion (29.5 %) higher than the prior year.
b) | Review of operations by reporting segment |
1) | Farm & Industrial Machinery |
Farm & Industrial Machinery comprises farm equipment, engines and construction machinery.
Revenues in this segment increased 5.6 %, to ¥651.5 billion from the prior year, comprising 69.8 % of consolidated revenues.
Domestic revenues decreased 1.4 %, to ¥226.4 billion. In the domestic market, demand for farm equipment was sluggish due to weakening motivation for buying farm equipment affected by price slump of rice and an absence of governmental subsidy for leasing agricultural machinery which was implemented in the prior year. Moreover, the Great East Japan Earthquake gave a negative impact on demand for farm equipment. Accordingly, sales of farm equipment remained at a lower level. On the other hand, sales of construction machinery and engines increased largely due to an upturn of demand.
Overseas revenues increased 9.8 %, to ¥425.1 billion. In North America, sales of tractors and construction machinery increased as a result of aggressive sales promotion activities. Sales of engines also increased largely supported by favorable demand. In Europe, sales of construction machinery and engines increased substantially due to a rapid recovery of demand, while sales of tractors decreased. In Asia outside Japan, although growth rate of sales of farm equipment slowed down mainly affected by broken weather, sales of construction machinery largely increased.
Operating income in Farm & Industrial Machinery increased 43.0 %, to ¥86.5 billion due to increased overseas revenues and cost reduction.

2) | Water & Environment Systems |
Water & Environment Systems comprises pipe-related products (ductile iron pipes, plastic pipes, valves, and other products) and environment-related products (environmental plants, pumps and other products).
Revenues in this segment decreased 13.5 %, to ¥192.8 billion from the prior year, comprising 20.6 % of consolidated revenues.
Domestic revenues decreased 9.8 %, to ¥178.7 billion. Sales of pipe-related products such as ductile iron pipes and plastic pipes decreased substantially due to sluggish demand. Sales of environment-related products also decreased mainly due to a decrease in sales of products related to water and sewage treatment, and waste treatment. Overseas revenues decreased 43.3 %, to ¥14.1 billion, due to substantial sales declines of ductile iron pipes and pumps.
Operating income in Water & Environment Systems decreased 33.5 %, to ¥13.1 billion due to decreased revenues and price hike of raw materials.
3) | Social Infrastructure |
Social Infrastructure comprises industrial castings, spiral welded steel pipes, vending machines, electronic equipped machinery, and air-conditioning equipment.
Revenues in this segment decreased 4.5 %, to ¥60.4 billion from the prior year, comprising 6.5 % of consolidated revenues.
Domestic revenues decreased 5.8 %, to ¥44.3 billion. Although sales of electronic equipped machinery and air-conditioning equipment increased, sales of spiral welded steel pipes largely decreased and sales of industrial castings and vending machines also decreased from the prior year. Overseas revenues decreased 0.7 %, to ¥16.2 billion due to the sales decline of industrial castings.
Operating income in Social Infrastructure decreased 8.7 %, to ¥2.5 billion due to decreased revenues.
4) | Other |
Other comprises construction, services and other business.
Revenues in this segment increased 4.6 %, to ¥29.0 billion from the prior year, comprising 3.1 % of consolidated revenues, due to an increase in sales of construction and other business.
Operating income in Other decreased 20.3 %, to ¥2.1 billion.
c) | Prospect for the next fiscal year |
Due to the effects of the Great East Japan Earthquake, supply of parts and electric power is not stable in some plants in Japan and there is a strong sense of uncertainty concerning demand of damaged areas. At this time it is difficult to foresee possible impacts of these factors and unable to reasonably forecast the consolidated financial results for the year ending March 31, 2012. Accordingly, the forecast is not disclosed at present and will be promptly announced when it is available.
(2) Financial condition
a) | Assets, liabilities and equity |
Total assets at the end of March 2011 amounted to ¥1,356.9 billion, a decrease of ¥52.2 billion from the end of the prior year. As for assets, current assets decreased largely centering on notes and accounts receivable. In addition, investment and long-term finance receivables as well as property, plant, and equipment decreased.
As for liabilities, long-term liabilities decreased substantially due to a decrease of long-term debt.
Equity increased steadily because recorded net income compensated an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss mainly due to a decrease of foreign currency translation adjustments. As a result, shareholders equity ratio was 46.8 %, 2.3 percentage points higher than the prior year end.

b) | Cash flows |
Net cash provided by operating activities during the year under review was ¥81.9 billion, and cash inflow decreased ¥37.2 billion from the prior year. Although net income increased, cash inflow substantially decreased due to the changes in working capital.
Net cash used in investing activities was ¥43.6 billion, and cash outflow increased ¥0.2 billion from the prior year.
Net cash used in financing activities was ¥41.7 billion, and cash outflow increased ¥7.0 billion from the prior year due to a decrease in proceeds from issuance of long-term debt.
Including the effect of exchange rate fluctuations, cash and cash equivalents at the end of March 31, 2011 were ¥105.3 billion, a decrease of ¥6.1 billion from the prior year.

Accordingly, including the interim dividend of ¥7 per common share already paid, the annual dividend per common share for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 will be ¥14, which will be ¥2 higher than in the prior year.
