Overview

(Year ended March 31, 2011)

During fiscal 2011, the year ended March 31, 2011, although the business environment saw such setbacks as rapid yen appreciation and soaring raw material prices, conditions continued improving overall on the back of a widespread recovery in the global economy, particularly in emerging countries. However, the business environment has been affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake, resulting in the suspension of production and, due to rolling blackouts and other factors, a decrease in the capacity utilization ratio at some operational sites.

Under these circumstances, the Mitsubishi Electric Group placed greater emphasis than ever before on promoting growth strategies rooted in the advantages it has over the competition as well as on Group efforts to boost its competitiveness and strengthen its management structure.

As a result, in fiscal 2011, the Mitsubishi Electric Group recorded net sales of ¥3,645.3 billion, operating income of ¥233.8 billion, income before income taxes of ¥210.2 billion, and net income attributable to Mitsubishi Electric Corp. of ¥124.5 billion.
