Interview with the President
For a start, we will split off the large-size LCD busi-
ness, which has become unprofitable, from Sharp.
This business will be moved to Sakai Display Products
Corporation, which is jointly operated by the Hon Hai
Group and Sharp.
The major part of our ¥376.0 billion net loss in fiscal
2011 stemmed from the large-size LCD business. By
splitting off this business, we will stabilize our operations.
Through a new framework under joint collaboration
with the Hon Hai Group, we will work to cut costs and
increase the competitiveness of the large-size LCD busi-
ness. However, the R&D function will remain with Sharp,
including the development of production technology
and elemental technology. We will continue developing
next-generation large-screen displays, notably for 4K TV,
offering four times the pixels of full-HD TV.
Please describe the efforts you are making to improve your business foundations.
We will split off the large-size LCD business, which has become unprofitable, from
Sharp. At the same time, we will work on measures such as cutting inventories and
paring down noncurrent assets.
Q
A
With respect to our financial position, we will work
to achieve an improvement of a total of ¥400 billion.
We will make off-balance-sheet arrangements for our
large-size LCD business and enhance equity capital by
issuing new shares through a third-party allotment to
the Hon Hai Group. We will also cut inventories and
reduce noncurrent assets. In addition, we will improve
cash flows by lowering capital investment. By steadily
pursuing the aforementioned initiatives, we will work
to improve our business foundations.
