1. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects(1) Quantitative Information on the Company's Consolidated Operating Results
Overview of Business Environment for the Year Ended March 31, 2017
For the year ended March 31, 2017, the U.S. economy continued to expand moderately, while a concurrent global stock market rally known as the "Trump rally," which continued since Donald Trump was elected as President of the United States, has now been settled. While Europe and Japan continue to enjoy a moderate recovery, China, supported by its domestic demand expansion based on public works projects, is making a steady economic growth, with resource-rich countries like Brazil and Russia on their way to exit the current economic struggle as their commodity markets recover.
Under such a business environment, NIDEC (Nidec Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries) continued to pursue our targets for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2020 of consolidated net sales of ¥2 trillion and an operating profit ratio of 15% based on our mid-term strategic goal, "Vision 2020," and we achieved in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 the highest operating profit, profit before income taxes and profit for the period in our history.

Total assets increased approximately ¥300,300 million to ¥1,676,901 million as of March 31, 2017 compared to March 31, 2016. This increase was mainly due to an increase of approximately ¥98,100 million in goodwill, an increase of approximately ¥97,600 million in trade and other receivables and an increase of approximately ¥47,100 million in property, plant, and equipment.
Total liabilities increased approximately ¥215,100 million to ¥820,382 million as of March 31, 2017 compared to March 31, 2016. This increase was mainly due to an increase of approximately ¥111,800 million in interest-bearing debt and an increase of approximately ¥64,200 million in trade and other payables. Specifically, our short term borrowings increased approximately ¥85,500 million to approximately ¥166,600 million, our long term debt due within one year increased approximately ¥1,300 million to approximately ¥84,000 million, and our long term debt increased approximately ¥25,000 million to approximately ¥161,800 million as of March 31, 2017 compared to March 31, 2016. The decrease of approximately ¥50,000 million was mainly due to the redemption of fourth series unsecured bonds (ranking pari passu with the other series of unsecured straight bonds) issued in December 2013, however approximately ¥50,000 million increased due to the issue of fifth series unsecured bonds (ranking pari passu with the other series of unsecured straight bonds) in November 2016.
As a result, our net interest-bearing debt increased to approximately ¥90,900 million as of March 31, 2017 from approximately negative ¥5,300 million as of March 31, 2016. Our debt ratio increased to 24.6% as of March 31, 2017 from 21.8% as of March 31, 2016. Our D/E ratio increased to 0.49 as of March 31, 2017 from 0.39 as of March
31, 2016. Our net D/E ratio increased to 0.11 as of March 31, 2017 compared to negative 0.01 as of March 31, 2016.
Total equity attributable to owners of the parent increased approximately ¥84,300 million to ¥847,285 million as of March 31, 2017 compared to March 31, 2016. Ratio of total equity attributable to owners of the parent to total assets decreased to 50.5% as of March 31, 2017 from 55.4% as of March 31, 2016. The decrease of ratio of total equity attributable to owners of the parent to total assets was mainly due to an increase in retained earnings of approximately ¥91,500 million as of March 31, 2017 compared to March 31, 2016.
The financial position includes approximately ¥207,000 million of total assets such as approximately
¥33,900 million in trade and other receivables and approximately ¥59,100 million of total liabilities such as approximately ¥21,200 million in notes payable and accounts payable related to the acquisition of the motors, drives and electric power generation businesses in Emerson Electric Co (currently, Nidec Leroy-Somer Holding and Nidec Control Techniques Limited, etc).
NIDEC finalized the provisional accounting treatment for the business combination in the three months ended September 30, 2016. Consolidated financial statements for the previous fiscal year and condensed quarterly consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2016 reflect the revision of the initially allocated amounts of acquisition price as NIDEC finalized the provisional accounting treatment for the business combination.

Free cash flow *1 52,282 (81,623) (133,905) Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities 7,775 95,848 88,073
Note:
*1: Free cash flow is the sum of "net cash provided by operating activities" and "net cash used in investing activities."
Cash flows from operating activities for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 ("this fiscal year") were a net cash inflow of ¥129,853 million. Compared to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 ("the prior fiscal year"), our cash inflow from operating activities for this fiscal year decreased approximately ¥17,800 million. This decrease was mainly due to an increase of approximately ¥60,400 million in accounts receivable, although there were increases of approximately ¥46,100 million in account payable and approximately ¥21,700 million of profit for the period.
Cash flows from investing activities for this fiscal year were a net cash outflow of ¥211,476 million. Compared to the prior fiscal year, our net cash outflow from investing activities for this fiscal year increased approximately ¥116,100 million mainly due to an increase in acquisition of business of approximately ¥130,200 million.
As a result, we had a negative free cash flow of ¥81,623 million for this fiscal year, an decrease of approximately ¥133,900 million compared to a positive free cash flow of ¥52,282 million for the prior fiscal year.
Cash flows from financing activities for this fiscal year were a net cash inflow of ¥95,848 million. Compared to the prior fiscal year, our net cash inflow from financing activities for this fiscal year increased approximately ¥88,100 million mainly due to an increase in net cash inflow from short term borrowings of approximately ¥61,400 million, long term debt of ¥20,800 and issuance of corporate bonds of approximately ¥50,000 million. On the other hand, outflow from redemption of corporate bonds increased approximately ¥50,000 million.
As a result of the foregoing and the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations of approximately positive
¥1,400 million, the balance of cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2017 was ¥321,580 million, an increase of approximately ¥15,600 million from March 31, 2016.

(3) Business Forecasts for the Fiscal Year ending March 31, 2018
While expectations grow for a continued economic recovery supported by the US's financial policies, the US government's future trade and financial policies may cause uncertainty over the future economic outlook of China and other emerging economies. Such uncertainty, which may pose geopolitical risks in the Middle East, affect national political elections scheduled to be held in Europe this year, and lead Italian financial institutions' management crisis to cause financial unrest, requires a constant monitoring.
Under such a business environment, NIDEC continued to pursue our targets for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021 based on our mid-term strategic goal, "Vision 2020".

Basic management policies
We aim to become the world's leading comprehensive motor manufacturer, maximize shareholder value, and meet the expectations of shareholders by delivering higher technology solutions, offering higher wages, and thus achieving higher growth, profit and stock prices, over the long-term. We seek to uphold the following three management goals and principles:
Employment stability based on sustainable business growth;
Available supply of highest quality, indispensable, and widely desired products for the common good for all;
Pursuit of the top leader position in each of the company's chosen paths.
Management targets
We endeavor to pursue profitable growth by setting a new medium-term strategic target for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2021. Its main components are as follows:
Consolidated net sales of ¥2 trillion (including approximately ¥500 billion contributed by new M&A activity);
Consolidated net sales of automotive products of ¥700 billion to ¥1 trillion;
Consolidated operating profit ratio of at least 15%;
ROE (return on shareholders' equity) of at least 18% (assuming shareholders' equity to total assets of 60%);
Establishment of a five-pronged global business management system
The Nidec Group's mid- to long-term business strategies
To achieve the targets set forth in our new medium-term strategic target, the Nidec Group, acting based on "its organic growth strategy" and "M&A strategy" strives to enhance and expand its business portfolio and achieve more uniformity among the group companies.
We are currently shifting from our current business portfolio to an improved and expanded business portfolio consisting of four core business lines, namely "small precision motors," "appliance, commercial and industrial motor products," "automotive products" and "other products," and have launched in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2013, a business enhancement system through which we aim to promote a market-oriented approach for each area of operation, particularly in terms of formulating new strategic ideas and operational implementation.
To strengthen the group's advanced R&D structures, we intend to develop new business and shift to an improved and expanded business portfolio under the leadership of our Chief Technology Officer while actively interacting with external research institutions. Taking advantage of our core technologies, we seek to realize innovation and achieve growth by exploring the market with high value-added products developed by our group's unique technology and pursuing Technology Application Development to cultivate new market demand.
As a critical part of the growth strategy of the Nidec Group, we plan to continue to actively seek M&A opportunities as we aim to achieve growth quickly and efficiently. In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, we successfully acquired companies formerly E.C.E. S.r.l., ANA IMEP S.A. (currently, Nidec Motor Corporation Romania), Canton Elevator, Inc., the motors, drives, and electric power generation businesses of Emerson Electric Co. (currently, Nidec Leroy-Somer Holding, Nidec Control Techniques Limited, etc.), and Vamco International, Inc..
Furthermore, with the purpose of promoting our production technology and realizing profitable applications of new materials, engineering methods, robots and automation equipment, we established in October 2015 the Nidec Center for Industrial Science, the construction of which began in Kansai Science City from December 2016. We seek
to build a manufacturing system so as to be better able to stay ahead of the global competition while nurturing our manufacturing engineers.
We also established Global Learning Center in Minami-ku in the city of Kyoto in March 2017 aiming to raise the next generation of Nidec employees who will work globally and support the company's global business expansion.
Business environment
In the global economy, while U.S., Europe and Japan continue to enjoy a moderate recovery, China, supported by its domestic demand expansion based on public works projects, is making a steady economic growth, with resource-rich countries like Brazil and Russia on their way to exit the current economic struggle as their commodity markets recover. On the other hand, as competitions in the global market intensify, better and improved competitiveness is essential for the Nidec Group's sustainable growth, which urgently requires us to improve our company's additional values based on new, competitive products and fresh, advanced technologies.
The Nidec Group's challenges
Enhancing the corporate governance system
As the company operates its governance system that includes independent directors from the outside, we plan to have a total of three independent auditors and two directors from the outside for the current fiscal year ending March 31, 2018. In addition, as part of our ongoing efforts to reform the board of directors and further strengthen our corporate governance system.
Building and strengthening the company's global management infrastructure
Nidec as a global company will further enhance its group's business management, accounting and financial reporting, and business information disclosure systems in accordance with global standards..
To secure a global sustainable growth and accelerate the pace of the post-merger integration (PMI) process of companies purchased overseas, we are building a "five-pronged matrix-based business management system" intended to strengthen the foundation of our growth strategy. Specific actions include the establishment and functional expansion of regional management companies, which will be tasked to improve management quality (in the areas of governance, compliance, and internal control), secure good management efficiency (providing
high-quality, low-cost shared services for individual regions), and actively support PMI.
We previously maintained a "federate-style" management system, under which individual group companies maintained a high degree of independence and autonomy in their business operations; however, to address globalization needs, we are shifting towards a "unified group management" increasingly quickly.
The company's Corporate Administration & Internal Audit Department, which is responsible for
group-wide internal controls, has in place a global auditing system to enhance our internal control system based on the experience and know-how gained through the past audits of our financial statements and the implementation of measures to comply with the U.S. Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. We also seek to improve our information disclosure system and policy through enhanced cooperation between a committee responsible for information disclosure and other relevant specialized departments.
Such specialized departments and offices, including the Compliance Office, the Risk Management Office, and the CSR (corporate social responsibility) Promotion Office, also collaborate with one another and other
departments as appropriate. We seek to find ways to create and maintain jobs and otherwise contribute to society based on our basic management policy as a good corporate citizen..
- Basic rationale for selection of accounting standards
Reporting entity
Nidec Corporation (the Company) is a corporation located in Japan, whose shares are listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. The registered address of headquarters and principal business offices are available on the Company's website (http://www.nidec.com/en-Global/).
Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, 2017 consist of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (NIDEC), and shares of associates of NIDEC.
NIDEC mainly designs, develops, produces, and sells products as described below:
Small precision motors, which include spindle motors for hard disk drives, brushless motors, fan motors, vibration motors, brush motors and motor applications.
Automotive, appliance, commercial and industrial products, which includes automotive motors and components, home appliance, commercial and industrial motors and related products.
Machinery, which includes industrial robots, card readers, test systems, pressing machines and power transmission drives.
Electronic and optical components, which include switches, trimmer potentiometers, lens units and camera shutters.
Others, which include services.
Basis of Preparation
Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)
The consolidated financial statements of NIDEC have been prepared in accordance with IFRS pursuant to the provision of article 93 of Regulations for Consolidated Financial Statements, as the Company meets the criteria of a "Designated IFRS Specified Company" defined under article 1-2 of the regulations.
NIDEC adopts IFRS for the first time this financial year (commencing on April 1, 2016 and ended on March 31, 2017), and so the annual consolidated financial statements for the year are the first ones prepared in conformity with IFRS. The date of transition of NIDEC to IFRS is April 1, 2015. Explanations of how the first time adoption of, and the transition to, IFRS have affected NIDEC's financial position, business results and cash flows are provided in "Note 9. First-Time Adoption of IFRS".
Basis of measurement
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for some assets and liabilities, including derivative and other financial instruments measured at fair value.
Presentation currency and level of rounding
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Japanese Yen, which is also the Company's functional currency, and figures are rounded to the nearest million yen, except as otherwise indicated.
Early adoption of new IFRS standards
NIDEC has early adopted IFRS 9 "Financial instruments" (amended in July 2014).
Significant accounting policies
Significant accounting policies are applied to all periods mentioned in the consolidated financial statements, including the consolidated statement of financial position on the transition date of IFRS.
Significant accounting policies are stated in notes to NIDEC's condensed consolidated financial statements for the first quarter of the current fiscal year, covering the period from April 1, 2016 to June 30, 2016.
Significant accounting estimates, judgments and assumptions
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management of NIDEC to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis, and the effects resulting from revisions of accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in future periods affected by the revision.
Judgments and estimates accompanying significant risks that may cause material adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the current and next fiscal years are the same as those for the condensed consolidated financial statements for the first quarter of the current fiscal year, covering the period from April 1, 2016 to June 30, 2016.
Business Combinations
Pursuant to IFRS 3 "Business Combinations," during the three months ended September 30, 2016, NIDEC completed its valuation of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed upon the acquisition of KB Electronics, Inc. (merged into Nidec Motor Corporation in March 2016) Consolidated financial statements for the previous fiscal year and condensed quarterly consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2016 reflect the revision of the initially allocated amounts of acquisition price as NIDEC finalized the provisional accounting treatment for the business combination. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2017, NIDEC completed its valuation of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed upon the acquisition of E.C.E. S.r. l. and ANA IMEP S.A. (currently, Nidec Motor Corporation Romania) Consolidated financial statements for the condensed quarterly financial data in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 reflect the revision of the initially allocated amounts of acquisition price as NIDEC finalized the provisional accounting treatment for the business combination. The assets and liabilities such as the motors, drives and electric power generation businesses of Emerson Electric Co. (currently, Nidec Leroy-Somer Holding and Nidec Control Techniques Limited) which are currently under evaluation have been recorded on NIDEC's consolidated statement of financial position based on preliminary management estimation as of March 31, 2017.

Notes:
The operating segments are the segments of Nidec for which separate financial information is available and for which operating income or loss amounts are evaluated regularly by executive management in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.
Nidec Leroy-Somer Holding and Nidec Control Techniques Limited which were newly consolidated in February 2017 have been included in the Nidec Motor segment.
Exemptions to retrospective application of IFRS
IFRS 1 stipulates that an entity adopting IFRS for the first time shall apply IFRS retrospectively to prior periods. However, IFRS 1 allows certain exemptions from the retrospective application of certain aspects of IFRS, and accordingly NIDEC has applied the following exemptions:
Business combinations:
IFRS 1 permits an entity not to apply IFRS 3 "Business Combinations" retrospectively to business combinations that occurred prior to the date of transition to IFRS. NIDEC elected to apply this exemption and did not apply IFRS 3 retrospectively to business combinations that occurred before the date of transition to IFRS. As a result, the goodwill recognized prior to the transition date is recorded based on the U.S. GAAP book value of the transition date. NIDEC performed an impairment test on goodwill at the date of transition to IFRS regardless of whether there was any indication that the goodwill may be impaired.
Use of fair value as deemed cost:
IFRS 1 permits an entity to measure items of property, plant and equipment, investment property or intangible assets at the date of transition to IFRS at its fair value and use that fair value as deemed cost at that date. NIDEC elected to use the fair value at the date of transition to IFRS as deemed cost at the date of transition to IFRS for certain items of property, plant and equipment. Further, NIDEC elected to use the cost model for items of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets under IFRS, thus the revaluation model is not applied.
Exchange differences on translating foreign operations:
IFRS 1 permits the cumulative amount of exchange differences on translating foreign operations to be deemed to be zero at the date of transition to IFRS. NIDEC elected to apply this exemption and deemed all cumulative exchange differences on translating foreign operations as zero at the date of transition to IFRS.

Notes to reconciliation of equity as of the date of transition to IFRS (April 1, 2015)
The major items of the reconciliation of equity as of the date of transition to IFRS are as follows:
Retirement benefit liabilities
Under U.S. GAAP, the actuarial gain and loss, and prior service costs resulted from defined benefit plan or lump-sum indemnities which incurred during the fiscal year but not recognized as the same periodic pension cost are recognized as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) by the amount after tax. The amount recognized as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is amortized into net periodic pension costs over the certain future periods.
Under IFRS, actuarial gain and loss are recognized in other comprehensive income by the amount after tax and the prior service costs are expensed as incurred. The actuarial gain and loss are transferred from other components of equity to retained earnings directly without going through net profit or loss.
As a result of the factors described above, the amount that was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to a decrease in "Retained earnings" at the IFRS transition date was ¥2,844 million.
Deferred tax
Under U.S. GAAP, when taxes on intercompany profits arising from transfer of assets between entities within NIDEC were paid by sellers, the taxes were deferred as prepaid expenses (¥4,185 million). Under IFRS, however, these temporary differences are recognized as deferred tax assets using the purchasers' tax rates.
Temporary differences resulting from the transition to IFRS are recognized as additional deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to offset current tax assets with current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable entity.
As a result, deferred tax assets and liabilities (net) decreased by ¥6,134 million at the date of transition to IFRS.
Translation adjustment of foreign operations
As noted in (1) above, IFRS 1 permits the cumulative amount of exchange differences on translating foreign operations to be deemed to be zero at the date of transition to IFRS. NIDEC elected to apply this exemption and deemed all cumulative exchange differences on translating foreign operations as zero at the date of transition to IFRS. As a result, translation adjustments reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to "Retained earnings" was ¥131,332 million at the date of transition to IFRS.
Reclassification on the consolidated statement of financial position
Certain reclassifications have been made to consolidated statement of financial position to conform to provisions under IFRS. The major reclassifications on consolidated statement of financial position are as follows:
Under U.S. GAAP, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are presented as current assets/non-current assets and current liabilities/non-current liabilities. Under IFRS, as deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are not allowed to be presented as current assets/current liabilities, all of them are reclassified to non-current assets/non-current liabilities.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are disclosed separately based on a provision for presentation under IFRS.

Deferred tax
Under U.S. GAAP, when taxes on intercompany profits arising from transfer of assets between entities within NIDEC were paid by sellers, the taxes were deferred as prepaid expenses (¥4,111 million). Under IFRS, however, these temporary differences are recognized as deferred tax assets using the purchasers' tax rates.

Notes to reconciliation of income and comprehensive income for the year ended March 31, 2016
The major items of the reconciliation of income and comprehensive income for the year ended March 31, 2016 are as follows:
Retirement benefit liabilities
Under U.S. GAAP, the actuarial gain and loss, and prior service costs resulted from defined benefit plan or lump-sum indemnities which incurred during the fiscal year but not recognized as the same periodic pension cost are recognized as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) by the amount after tax. The amount recognized as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is amortized into net periodic pension costs over the certain future periods.
Under IFRS, actuarial gain and loss are recognized in other comprehensive income by the amount after tax and the prior service costs are expensed as incurred. The actuarial gain and loss are transferred from other components of equity to retained earnings directly without going through net profit or loss.
As a result of the factors described above, retirement benefit costs have increased by ¥378 million on the consolidated statement of income for the year ended March 31, 2016.
Equity financial assets
Under U.S. GAAP, gains and losses from the sales of investment securities and impairment of the securities are recognized through profit or loss. Under IFRS, however, NIDEC adopts IFRS 9 and accordingly any gain or loss arising from a difference between the carrying value and fair value of equity financial assets designated as measured at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI equity financial assets") are recognized in other comprehensive income without reclassification.
Reclassifications on the consolidated statement of income
Certain reclassifications are made on the consolidated statement of income in order to comply with the IFRS provisions. The major reclassification on the consolidated statement of income is as follows:
Based on an IFRS provision concerning presentations, the financial income and financial expenses are presented separately.
Retrospective adjustment on business combinations
During the six months ended September 30, 2016, NIDEC completed some of its valuation of the fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed upon the acquisition in the previous years. Accordingly, retrospective adjustments are included in "Recognition and measurement differences, etc."
(iv) Disclosure of material items of reconciliation of the consolidated statements of cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2016
There are no material differences between the consolidated statement of cash flows presented under IFRS and the consolidated statement of cash flows presented under U.S. GAAP.

Operating profit of spindle motors for HDDs decreased ¥3,800 million due to the decrease of special demands for spindle motors for HDDs for previous 3Q and decreases in shipments caused by a model change of vibration motors, although, operating profit ratio increased 2% to 26% for this quarter compared to previous 3Q.
Also, brand strategy fee was approximately ¥1,000 million, hiring costs was approximately ¥700 million and acquisition fee was approximately ¥600 million due to expense incurred temporarily, and that made the operating profit approximately ¥34,200 million.

(4) Dividend Policy
We uphold shareholder-oriented management and seek to deliver higher technology solutions while offering higher wages in order to achieve higher growth, profitability and share value so as to build long-term, sustainable growth in shareholder value. We also seek to lay out our vision for the future on a regular and timely basis to keep stakeholders informed on how we intend to respond to changing opportunities and challenges as we continue to strive to succeed in our endeavors. Placing importance on regular dividend payments, we seek to increase our dividend payout to around 30% of our consolidated net profit and use reserves to reinforce our management structure, expand our business horizons, and eventually to improve our profitability and shareholder value.
We have determined the year-end dividend to be ¥45.0 per share for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. As a result, together with the interim dividend of ¥40.0 per share, the full-year dividend will be ¥85.0 per share. The dividend payout ratio, which is obtained by dividing dividend declared for the year by profit attributable to owners of the parent, for this fiscal year is approximately 22.6%.
Our current dividend forecast for the year ending March 31, 2018 is a full-year dividend of ¥90.0 per share (an interim dividend of ¥45.0 per share and a year-end dividend of ¥45.0 per share.) Based on this forecast, the dividend payout ratio for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018 that we are aiming to achieve is approximately 21.4.%.
