1. Overview of Results of Operations

(1) Results of Operations

The Japanese economy continued to recover slowly during the fiscal year that ended on July 31, 2018 due to

continuing improvements in jobs and personal income as well as the benefits of government economic stimulus

measures. However, the economic outlook remains unclear because of the effects of international trade problems

on the global economy and the overall uncertainty about the upcoming direction of the global economy.

The business climate in Japan’s jewelry industry remained challenging because people continue to be reluctant to

make purchases due to uncertainty about the future.

There were many activities during the fiscal year, mainly involving the Dancing Stone*, in order to improve

customer satisfaction.

In Japan, there were TV commercials during the Christmas shopping season in order to raise awareness of the

Dancing Stone brand. In addition, there were advertisements in magazines. Due to these activities, performance in

Japan was good in relative terms.

Crossfor HK Limited, a Hong Kong subsidiary of Crossfor, has become the primary component of overseas

operations. This company used participation in jewelry exhibitions to increase the number of license contracts

and conducted follow-up sales activities with companies that have already signed contracts.

In China, subsidiary Crossfor (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. continued to work on expanding its presence in the jewelry

market. However, increasing consumer awareness of the Crossfor brand has been accompanied by a big increase

in the volume of imitation Crossfor products. Crossfor (Shenzhen) is working with attorneys in China to stop the

sale of counterfeit merchandise.

Jewelry parts sold in India are used primarily to fabricate pendants and other types of jewelry within India that is

sold mainly in the United States. Demand for merchandise at large U.S. jewelry retailers is soft because of slow

sales of jewelry and accessories in the United States. Consequently, sales of jewelry parts in India were lower

than the initial plan.

As a result, sales were down 3.5% from one year earlier to 4,063 million yen. Operating profit decreased 71.3%

to 234 million yen, ordinary profit decreased 72.2% to 220 million yen and profit attributable to owners of parent

decreased 78.0% to 117 million yen.

* Dancing Stone is a patented technology of Crossfor that makes it possible to create a gemstone setting that

allows the stone to move with no need to make a hole in the stone.

(2) Financial Position

Assets

Total assets increased 74 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year to 5,572 million yen as of the end of

the current fiscal year. The main reasons were a decrease of 1,204 million yen in cash and deposits and increases

of 797 million yen in finished goods, 235 million yen in raw materials and supplies and 106 million yen in work

in process.

Liabilities

Total liabilities increased 64 million yen to 2,895 million yen. The main reasons were a decrease of 133 million

yen in income taxes payable and an increase of 311 million yen in loans payable.

Net assets

Total net assets increased 10 million yen to 2,677 million yen. The main reasons were a decrease of 124 million

yen because of dividends from surplus and the booking of profit attributable to owners of parent of 117 million

yen.


3

(3) Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the current fiscal year decreased 1,204 million yen from the end of the

previous fiscal year to 442 million yen. Cash flows and the main reasons for changes are as follows.

Cash flows from operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities totaled 1,290 million yen, compared with 100 million yen provided in the

previous fiscal year.

Main uses of cash include a 1,139 million yen increase in inventories and income taxes paid of 252 million yen,

while there was profit before income taxes of 218 million yen.

Cash flows from investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities totaled 81 million yen, compared with 973 million yen used in the previous

fiscal year.

Main uses of cash include purchase of property, plant and equipment of 86 million yen.

Cash flows from financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled 171 million yen, compared with 1,929 million yen provided in

the previous fiscal year.

Net increase in short-term loans payable of 124 million yen and proceeds from long-term loans payable of 700

million yen were the main source of cash. Main uses of cash include repayments of long-term loans payable of

513 million yen and cash dividends paid of 124 million yen.

(4) Outlook

In Japan’s jewelry industry, sales are expected to increase slowly over the next few years for several reasons. One

reason is the expected rush to make purchases prior to the planned consumption tax hike in 2019. Expectations for

the price of gold to increase are also likely to support demand for jewelry. There are also expectations for a large

volume of jewelry purchases in Japan and by foreign tourists leading up to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. (Source:

2018 Jewelry Market Survey by Yano Research Institute)

As in the past fiscal year, Crossfor will continue to launch new designs periodically and create new ideas for

OEM* products for our current business partners. In addition, we plan to create ideas for eyeglasses, leather

products and other products that can incorporate the Dancing Stone technology. Our goals are to establish ties

with new business partners and make inroads in new market categories.

Developing a core product in addition to Dancing Stone is another goal. Research and development programs are

under way in order to start manufacturing items that can become new major products. Crossfor plans to begin

selling tennis bracelets and other new products during the fiscal year ending on July 31, 2019.

The overseas jewelry market has been growing steadily, chiefly in China. Growth is expected to continue until at

least about 2020. Due to this outlook, global jewelry sales are forecast to climb to about 50 trillion yen in 2020

from about 25 trillion yen in 2013. (Source: 2013 Cool Japan Strategy Development and Collaboration Pr omotion

Project, Ministry of Economy Trade and Industry)

Many activities are planned in order to increase sales as the jewelry market grows. Led by subsidiary Crossfor

H.K. Ltd., the Crossfor Group will continue to participate in jewelry exhibitions in China, the United States,

Southeast Asia and Europe, which are all regions where the jewelry market is expected to grow. Plans also

include participation for the first time in jewelry exhibitions in the Middle East. By operating booths at these

events, Crossfor plans to expand its presence in overseas markets by working with its sales agents in order to

increase sales to overseas jewelry manufacturers.


4

To preserve and enhance the value of the Crossfor brand, there will be more activities to prevent the growth of

counterfeit merchandise in Japan and other countries. Sales of unauthorized products in China are a particularly

serious problem. Crossfor (Shenzhen) will continue to take actions aimed at blocking the production and sale of

counterfeit products.

* Abbreviation for Original Equipment Manufacturing (Manufacturer), producing products with business partner

brands

Based on this outlook and planned actions, the forecast for sales and earnings in the fiscal year ending on July 31,

2019 is as follows.

Sales

The Crossfor Group operates in the single segment of the jewelry business. But sales and the cost of sales are

provided separately for the domestic sales (sales of finished products) and overseas sales (sales of jewelry parts)

categories.

Domestic sales (Sales of finished jewelry)

Domestic sales consist of sales of OEM products using the brands of partner companies and the manufacture and

sale of products using Crossfor’s own brand.

The fiscal year sales plan is determined by first performing a survey of buyers for both OEM products and

Crossfor-brand products. Then sales personnel for each buyer or buyer category submit sales forecasts that are

combined to obtain the total domestic sales forecast.

Overseas sales (Sales of jewelry parts)

Overseas sales consist of the sale of parts required to fabricate products that incorporate Crossfor’s patented

Dancing Stone technology. Crossfor receives orders for parts through consolidated subsidiary Crossfor H.K. Ltd.

The parts are then fabricated by outsourcing manufacturers in Japan and sold to overseas jewelry manufacturers.

The fiscal year sales plan is determined by first performing a survey of buyers and then combining the sales

forecasts for each buyer. For regions where it is not possible to use a survey to establish a sales forecast, forecasts

are determined by using prior-year sales and making adjustments to reflect changes in consumer spending in

individual countries.

Cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, operating profit

The cost of sales forecast is determined by using the fiscal year sales plan and the cost of sales ratio for each

product category in the previous fiscal year.

The selling, general and administrative expenses forecast is determined by using the previous fiscal year’s

expenses and then factoring in growth in personnel expenses, advertising and marketing expenses, increases in

store POP materials and equipment associated with sales growth, increases in jewelry exhibition expenses and

sales commissions, and other items. For personnel expenses, which is the largest component of selling, general

and administrative expenses, the forecast reflects planned salary increases and the plan for the size of the

workforce in the fiscal year.

Non-operating income/expenses, ordinary profit

The non-operating income/expense forecast is determined mainly by using the plan for interest expenses and

other expenses associated with plans for procuring funds as needed.

Extraordinary income and losses, profit attributable to owners of parent

These forecasts are based on the expectation for no extraordinary income or losses in the fiscal year ending on

July 31, 2019.


5

Based on this outlook, Crossfor forecasts its operating results for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2019 as follows:

consolidated net sales to increase by 6.9% year-on-year to 4,344 million yen; operating profit to increase by

49.2% year-on-year to 350 million yen; ordinary profit to increase by 55.2% year-on-year to 341 million yen; and

profit attributable to owners of parent to increase by 74.7% to 204 million yen.

Due to the characteristics of the jewelry business, demand for products of the Crossfor Group is very high during

the Christmas shopping season. As a result, sales in the first and second quarters of each fiscal year (Augus t to

December), during preparations for the Christmas shopping season and the season itself, are higher than in the

other two quarters.

The overseas sales forecast assumes average exchange rates of 110 yen to the U.S. dollar and 17 yen to the

Chinese yuan.

(5) Basic Policy for Profit Distribution and Dividends for the Current and Next Fiscal Years

The Crossfor Group views the distribution of earnings to shareholders as one of its greatest obligations. The

fundamental policy is to maintain a consolidated dividend payout ratio of 20% in order to pay dividends that

reflect results of operations.

To pay a steady dividend in each fiscal year, group companies are dedicated to improving financial soundness,

making investments for future growth and further increasing corporate value. The policy is to continue taking

actions that are suitable and flexible while taking into consideration the stock price, financial soundness and other

factors.

As was announced on March 13, 2018 in a press release titled “Notice of Revisions to First-half and Full-year

Forecasts for the Fiscal year Ending July 31, 2018 and Partial Reduction in Compensation of Executives”

(Japanese version only), Crossfor plans to pay a dividend of 7.20 yen per share* for the fiscal year that ended on

July 31, 2018.

Based on the consolidated payout ratio guideline of 20%, Crossfor plans to pay a dividend of 2.50 yen per share

for the fiscal year ending on July 31, 2019.

* Crossfor conducted a 2-for-1 common stock split on February 1, 2018. All dividend figures in this section

reflect this split.

2. Basic Approach to the Selection of Accounting Standards

The Crossfor Group currently prepares consolidated financial statements using Generally Accepted Accounting

Principles in Japan to permit comparisons with prior years and with the financial data of other companies. We will

take suitable actions with regard to the application of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) by

taking into account associated factors in Japan and other countries.
