TOKYO, February 2, 2018 - Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today its consolidated financial results for the first 9 months and third quarter, ended December 31, 2017, of the current fiscal year ending March 31, 2018 (fiscal 2018).

In the first 9 months of fiscal 2018, from April through December 2017, the global economy saw a stable status in China, a buoyant expansion in the U.S. and gradual trends of recovery in Japan and Europe. In addition, the yen weakened against the U.S. dollar and the euro in and after May compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year, but became stronger against the U.S. dollar after the latter half of November.
Under these circumstances, consolidated net sales for the first 9 months of fiscal 2018 increased by 6% compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year to 3,115.0 billion yen due primarily to increased sales in the Energy and Electric Systems, Industrial Automation Systems, Electronic Devices and Home Appliances segments.
Consolidated operating income increased by 32% compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year to 232.4 billion yen, due to increased profits in the Energy and Electric Systems, Industrial Automation Systems, Information and Communication Systems and Electronic Devices segments.

Notes
1. Change in the accounting policy
On April 1, 2017, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2015-17 "Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes" issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. To reflect this adoption, all deferred tax assets and liabilities have been classified as noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheets and subsequently, deferred tax assets and liabilities in the same tax-paying component or tax jurisdiction were offset. The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2017 has been reclassified to reflect this adoption and accordingly, deferred tax assets previously included in 'Prepaid expenses and other current assets' and deferred tax liabilities previously included in 'Other liabilities' have been reclassified as 'Other assets'.
