      Qualitative information on business performance and financial position for the third quarter of FY2015 ending March 2016


      1. Overview of consolidated business performance

        With regard to consolidated business performance of the Obayashi Group for the third quarter (from April 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015) of this fiscal year, net sales amounted to 1,296.9 billion yen, increased by 2.8% from the same quarter of the previous fiscal year primarily due to an increase in net sales of the construction business.

        On the earnings front, consequent to an increase in gross profit on completed construction contracts as a result of an improvement in gross profit margin on completed construction contracts of the Company's domestic construction business, operating income increased by 167.9% to 74.0 billion yen, ordinary income increased by 109.9% to 79.2 billion yen, and profit attributable to owners of parent increased by 108.5% to 50.6 billion yen from the same quarter of the previous fiscal year.


      2. Overview of consolidated financial position

        Total assets at the end of the third quarter of this fiscal year increased by 38.0 billion yen (1.9%) to 2,034.2 billion yen compared with the balance at the end of the previous fiscal year mainly due to an increase in "Notes and accounts receivable from completed construction contracts and other" as well as an increase in "Land" as a result of the purchase of real estate for leasing business, despite a decrease in "Investment securities" as a result of a decline in market value.

        Total liabilities at the end of the third quarter of this fiscal year increased by 11.1 billion yen (0.8%) to 1,457.8 billion yen compared with the balance at the end of the previous fiscal year primarily due to an increase in interest-bearing debt such as "Commercial papers" on the purpose of funding, despite a decrease in accounts payable for construction contracts (the aggregate of "Notes and accounts payable for construction contracts and other" and "Electronically recorded obligations"). Consolidated balance of interest-bearing debt at the end of this fiscal year will be

        360.0 billion yen, although the balance at the end of the third quarter of this fiscal year increased by 37.3 billion yen (9.1%) to 448.1 billion yen compared with the balance at the end of the previous fiscal year.

        Total net assets at the end of the third quarter of this fiscal year increased by 26.9 billion yen (4.9%) to 576.4 billion yen compared with the balance at the end of the previous fiscal year mainly due to an increase in "Retained earnings" since profit attributable to owners of parent was recognized, while "Valuation difference on available-for-sale securities" decreased.

        As a result, equity ratio at the end of the third quarter of this fiscal year was 26.2%, up 0.8 percentage point from the end of the previous fiscal year.


      3. Consolidated forecasts

      Based on the review at the time of the release of this document, the consolidated and

      non-consolidated forecasts of the financial performance for the fiscal year ending March 2016 were not revised from the ones announced on November 10, 2015 when the financial results for the second quarter were presented.

      (Important Note) Changes in Accounting Policies


      The Company adopted the "Revised Accounting Standard for Business Combinations" (Accounting Standard Board of Japan (ASBJ) Statement No. 21 of September 13, 2013, hereinafter referred to as the "Business Combinations Accounting Standard"), the "Revised Accounting Standard for Consolidated Financial Statements" (ASBJ Statement No. 22 of September 13, 2013, hereinafter referred to as the "Consolidated Financial Statements Accounting Standard") and the "Revised Accounting Standard for Business Divestitures" (ASBJ Statement No. 7 of September 13, 2013, hereinafter referred to as the "Business Divestitures Accounting Standard") as of the first quarter of this fiscal year.

      In consequence, the differences arising from the changes in the equity portion for the subsidiaries the Company continues to control are recognized in capital surplus, and costs associated with the acquisition are treated as expenses in the fiscal year in which they incurred. Additionally, for business combinations that are implemented after the beginning of the first quarter of this fiscal year, the revision of acquisition costs allocation due to determination of provisional accounting treatment is reflected in the quarterly consolidated financial statements for the quarter in which the business combination occurred.

      Furthermore, the Company changed the method of presenting quarterly net income and moved "Minority interests" to "Non-controlling interests."

      In order to reflect these changes in representation, the Company reclassified its quarterly consolidated financial statements for the third quarter of the previous fiscal year and consolidated financial statements for the previous fiscal year.

      The Company applied these standards in accordance with the transitional treatment prescribed in Section 58-2 (4) of the Business Combinations Accounting Standard, Section 44-5 (4) of the Consolidated Financial Statements Accounting Standard, and Section 57-4 (4) of the Business Divestitures Accounting Standard, and continue to apply these standards from the beginning of the first quarter of this fiscal year into the future.

      The impact of these changes in accounting policies had minor effect on the quarterly consolidated financial statements for the third quarter of this fiscal year.
