Message from the president

Happy New Year everyone!

The COVID-19 situation has calmed down in the last year, and behavioral restrictions have eased. However, we still need to be very careful about COVID-19, so please continue to “take action”.

In addition, the world is recovering from COVID-19, with a rapid increase in energy demand, supply shortages, and energy prices skyrocketing due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

And the world is moving at an accelerated pace toward decarbonization. Our division head, E&E (Energy and Environment Group) is proposing the conversion of existing coal-fired power plants to biomass fuels, developing energy storage facilities (LAES), and other initiatives. SDMI, likewise, will proceed with these initiatives.

Organization

SDMI has a new organization starting on fiscal year 2023: new Corporate Officers were elected in which I am part of the new officers (as President and CEO).

My Profile

Here is a brief profile of mine:
I was born on November 14, 1966.
My hometown is Saga Prefecture, Kyushu, Japan.
Joined SHI in April 1990.
Worked at Toyo Works (now Saijo Works) in bridge design for 1 year.
I worked for SKG for 31 years and 3 months from April 1991 to June 2022.

My relationship with SDMI goes way way back!
My first overseas business trip was to SDMI sometime in 1990!
I have known the (first) president/office of SDMI from the beginning.
Now, I am the president of SDMI (probably) by chance, and I sure look forward to working with you all.

Corporate Performance

I will explain our performance in fiscal year 2022.

FY2022 Sales profit/loss:
Our Second half results greatly improved, however, the missed target in the 1st half was too large to be compensated for by the 2nd half results!
Therefore, the following are our expected financial performance for FY2022 (unaudited results).

  • Operating income +6.5M PhP
  • Income before taxes -5.2M PhP (due to external factors like Foreign Exchange loss on the unusually high depreciation of Japanese Yen).
  • Operation Hours: Segment 1 (PLANT GROUP)
    Operations increased in the 2nd half of the fiscal year.
    However, this was not enough to cover the 1st half shortfall.
    In particular, some projects were cancelled or postponed.
    Structural and Boiler & Vessel sections were particularly short of capacity.
  • Operation Hours: Segment 2 (MACHINERY GROUP)
    Operation Hours Projection was achieved.
    This was especially due to increased operations at SPM and SHI-GB.
  • Operation Hours: Segment 3 (SYSTEMS GROUP)
    Operation Hours Projection was not achieved
    Shortfall in SFW and SMIT operations in Engineering Application Section.
    Shortfall in ICT operation in Business Application Section.
  • Overall, the Operation Projection for FY2022 was not achieved.

On the other hand, our projection for this year, 2023, are as follows;

FY2023 Original Projection/Budget
FY2023 Sales profit/loss:
Sales profit/loss is projected to be break-even or in a slightly positive side (as softer job demands continue to roll-over for the year).
→ Further improvement is needed and such could be reflected on the second half as our Adjusted Projection.

  • Operation Hours: Segment 1 (PLANT GROUP)
    Operating hours decrease from last year.
    However, Structural Section is expected to increase operation.
  • Operation Hours: Segment 2 (MACHINERY GROUP)
    Operating hours increase from last year.
    However, Sumitomo Construction Machinery and MECHATRONICS may decrease.
  • Operation Hours: Segment 3 (SYSTEMS GROUP)
    Operating hours decrease from last year.
  • Overall, Operation Hours Projection for FY2023 will decrease from last year.

FY2023 Activity Plan (To improve profit/loss):
Some opportunities are possible to engage that will improve our projection and our bottom line for this year.

  • Acquisition of New JOBs.
    Focus: TMU projects, Mechatronics, Nihon Spindle, SHI-GB
  • Improvement of work efficiency.
  • Utilization of ICT tools – DX.

Finally, I wish you and your families good health and safety.

Thank you,
Kazuto Sakamoto
President & CEO
