The NDK Group immediately perceived the changes in the market environment and, as a manufacturer of key components of the digital revolution, swiftly rolled out new products adapted to diversifying customer needs, aggressively increased capital spending, and focused on the expansion of sales and the increase of market share.
As a result of these initiatives, in fiscal 2006, ended March 31, 2006, net sales and net income both increased. Consolidated net sales rose 4.9% from the previous fiscal year, to ¥63,642 million; operating income increased 17.0%, to ¥5,270 million; ordinary income jumped 26.2%, to ¥5,183 million; and net income climbed 24.6%, to ¥3,257 million.
As a manufacturer, NDK believes that the supply of flawless products is the way to truly win over customers. From mobile communications to audiovisual (AV), office automation (OA), infrastructure, automotive electronics, and applied products, NDK has an extremely wide range of customers, and, therefore, an endless variety of project time spans, design technology needs, and service requirements. To respond to such a wide range of customer needs, we pursue flawless quality service throughout the total process from development, design to mass production.
To respond flexibly to changes in the market and construct an unshakable, rock-solid corporate structure capable of weathering any environment, all Group employees pursue their work based on giving 100% customer satisfaction.
In late years, through the integration of crystal technologies with advanced high-frequency wireless technologies, we developed, as seed products, highly sensitive wireless modules, biosensors that measure molecular weight, and super-low-noise (1Hz resolution) microwave synthesizers.
Then, to ensure that these seeds grow into new businesses, we will begin marketing wireless modules as keyless entry systems and developing biosensors for food and medical inspection use. At the same time, we will pursue business expansion by marketing the microwave synthesizer, which is much anticipated in the measurement instrument fields and broadcasting fields such as terrestrial digital media broadcasting where high-performance is demanded.
With respect to such traditional product lines as crystal units, we will develop high-value-added strategies, including miniaturization. We will continue to move aggressively ahead in the above-mentioned areas as well.
Finally, NDK will work to gain the trust of its many customers through the pursuit of 100% customer satisfaction by putting quality first to secure the No.1 brand and No.1 supplier positions in this industry and become a company capable of sustainable development. In every region of the world and in every field in which crystal devices are used, NDK's goal is to become a true global player that is capable of supplying flawless products to customers when they are needed and only in the amount they are needed.
We look forward to your continued support and encouragement.
