Thank you very much. And I would like to talk about these 2 topics today. We have changed our accounting standards to IFRS from the current fiscal year. So the results for the current quarter or forecast for the current fiscal year and the results for the previous fiscal year, which I will explain today, are all based on IFRS.
Fiscal ‘21 first quarter consolidated sales increased 15% compared to the same quarter of the previous fiscal year to ¥2,256.8 billion and consolidated operating income increased a significant ¥58.3 billion year-on-year to ¥280.1 billion, both record highs for the first quarter.
Income before income taxes increased ¥14.6 billion year-on-year to ¥283.2 billion and net income attributable to Sony Group Corporations’s shareholders increased ¥18.2 billion to ¥211.8 billion. This slide shows the result by segment
