PERFORMANCE TARGETS BY SEGMENT
Konica Minolta aims to strengthen its Business Technologies business by
concentrating management resources in the color products segment, where the
market is growing very rapidly. To ensure sales targets are met, the Group will
actively pursue a “genre-top” strategy. In the Optics business, the Group intends to
further strengthen its already highly competitive technological capabilities as it seeks
further growth in pickup lenses and TAC film for LCDs, while at the same time
expanding the business into new areas such as next generation pickup lenses. In the
Photo Imaging business, the aim is to achieve profitability by shifting the emphasis to
profitability over scale. In addition, the Group will work to apply its optical and other
core technologies in other profit generating areas. In the Medical and Graphic
Imaging business, the Group will pursue growth in digital input/output equipment
and dry film sales, leveraging the growing trend toward digital and networked
equipment in the medical and diagnostics fields. In the Sensing business, the Group
will work to ensure stable revenue and earnings in the principal color measurement
business for the FPD (flat panel display) industry and the automobile industry, and
will focus on the 3D digitizer business as a newer growth area.
In addition, Konica Minolta will pursue new areas that have the potential of
growing into major new businesses by leveraging its core technologies such as image
processing, optics, materials and nano-fabrication.
focused on expanding production capacity for LCD-related component materials and
the next generation products.
In terms of research and development, the V-5 Plan calls for a cumulative investment
of approximately ¥320 billion in R&D over the next four years. This is a significantly
larger amount than the ¥100 billion planned on R&D in the previous three-year
medium-term plan. Some 80% of these expenditures will be focused on the Business
Technologies and Optics businesses, as well as on advanced research.
