Segment revenues decreased 7% year over year, to
¥412.0 billion (U.S.$4,204 million), due mainly to
lower transaction volumes at Hitachi Capital
Corporation. Operating income dropped 60%, to
¥10.2 billion (U.S.$104 million), mainly on account
of increased bad debt expenses at Hitachi Capital.
nHitachi Capital Corporation
Volume declined year over year. Earnings also declined due to
increased bad debt expenses and a reduction in used asset
prices in Europe and North America.
In the finance sector, lease demand declined as economic
conditions worsened in the past fiscal year. Revenues from com-
mission services were affected by a decline in affiliated loan sales
transactions because of the slump in auto sales. In the supply
and sales services, Hitachi Capital recorded lower new volume in
auto leasing and gains on sale of leased assets that were off
contract. Overseas business, meanwhile, was affected by the
economic downturn, particularly in North America and Europe,
and the impact of foreign currency movements. As a result,
business volume and earnings were lower year over year in all
four divisions.
