Q1. When does JPC announce its financial results? Q2. What are JPC's recent financial results? Q3. How have JPC's financial results changed recently? Q4. What market indicators impact JPC's financial results? Q5. What points should be kept in mind when viewing just the financial results? The end of the fiscal year is March 31, but Japan Pure Chemical announces its financial results quarterly. Please refer to the "Press Release" page in the "IR Info" section or the "Financial Results Briefing Resources" or "Interim Financial Statements" pages in the "IR Library" section. Please refer to the "Key Financial Data" and "Financial Statements" pages in the "IR Info" section. Indices that have an impact on our financial results include developments in semiconductor markets, cell phone shipment volumes, and PC shipment volumes. Graphs for these indicators can be found in the "Investors' Guide" on the "IR Library" page in the "IR Info" section. When Japan Pure Chemical sells precious metal plating products, there are instances where we sell both precious metals (precious metal alloys) and chemicals and instances where we sell just the chemicals. Precious metals are expensive, as the percentage of combined sales rises, sales revenues increase, but there is little impact on income. Also, Japan Pure Chemical hedges market price risks, so changes in market prices for precious metals have no effect on income. Accordingly, viewing net income will provide a more accurate understanding of our performance than sales revenues. Also, exports to other countries are as a general rule limited to chemicals only and do not include precious metals, and as a result, the net income rate is higher than that for domestic sales.
