On Monday, Nov 7, Sysmex announced its financial results for the first six months of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2012.
During the first six months of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2012, sales were up in Japan and overseas markets despite the negative impact of substantial yen appreciation. We expect to pay an interim dividend of ¥15 per share for total annual dividends of ¥30 per share.*
For the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2012, substantial and higher-than-expected appreciation of the yen has led us to revise exchange rate forecasts from the levels anticipated at the beginning of the fiscal year. Therefore, we have revised our net sales and income forecasts from the previously announced figures. We now anticipate a 7.5% rise in net sales and a 1.2% increase in operating income year on year.
On Tuesday, Nov 8, Sysmex held a presentation in Tokyo to explain its business results to analysts and institutional investors. The meeting had an excellent turnout, with 96 people attending. Hisashi Ietsugu, President and CEO, led the presentation, outlining the Company's financial results.
