TOHOKU ELECTRIC POWER CO., INC.
October 26, 2017
Financial Results for the Second Quarter of Fiscal 2017Tohoku Electric Power Co., Inc. (the "Company") filed a summary of its financial statements for the second quarter (from April 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017) with the Tokyo Stock Exchange and disclosed the report today.
【Consolidated Financial Results】
With respect to revenue, even though electricity sales declined, our consolidated operating revenue increased to ¥981.2 billion (a year-on-year increase of ¥41.3 billion, or a 4.4% increase) and consolidated ordinary revenue to ¥984.9 billion (a year-on-year increase of ¥43.0 billion, or 4.6% increase), mainly due to an increase in sales of power to other utilities and other companies together with an increase in the grant* under Act on Purchase of Renewable Energy Sourced Electricity based on "feed-in-tariff scheme for renewable energy" reflecting an increase in purchased volume from solar.
As for expenses, depreciation expenses decreased, however, consolidated ordinary expenses increased to ¥931.9 billion (a year-on-year increase of ¥61.3 billion, or a 7.1% increase) due to an increase in purchased power resulting from an increase in solar power received as well as an increase in fuel cost caused by rise in fuel prices.
Consequently, consolidated ordinary income was ¥52.9 billion, a decrease of ¥18.3 billion (or a
25.7 % decrease) year-on-year.
Net income attributable to owners of parent was ¥34.5 billion, a decrease of ¥12.7 billion (or a 26.9 % decrease) year-on-year.
* The grant is based on "Feed-In-Tariff scheme for renewable energy". It is offset by purchase costs of renewable energy; therefore its effect on our income is immaterial.
【Electricity Sales Volume】
There was an increase in heating demand resulting from lower temperature in this early spring compared to the previous year; nevertheless, a decrease in contract demand and a decrease in cooling demand due to lower temperature in late summer than the last year decreased electricity sales to 34.0TWh, down 3.8% year-on-year.
【Financial Forecast for FY2017】
The financial forecast remains unchanged from the previous announcement on April 27, 2017.
【Dividend Forecast for FY2017】
The Company has decided to pay an interim dividend of 20 yen per share for FY2017. The year-end dividend forecast remains unchanged from the previous announcement on April 27, 2017.
