TOKYO, October 29, 2015 - Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today its financial results for the first half and second quarter, ended September 30, 2015, of the current fiscal year ending March 31, 2016 (fiscal 2016).
1. Consolidated Half-year Results (April 1, 2015 - September 30, 2015)
Net sales: | 2,063.2 | billion yen | (5% increase from the same period last year) |

The business environment in the first half of fiscal year 2016, from April through September 2015, experienced a stronger trend of economic slowdown in China and other East Asian markets, weakness in consumption in Japan and stronger stagnation in certain emerging markets. Meanwhile, the U.S. economy saw continued buoyancy and the European market showed gradual recovery. In the foreign currency exchange market, the yen was weaker against the U.S. dollar compared to the previous year.
Under these circumstances, consolidated net sales in the first half of fiscal 2016 increased by 5% compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year to 2,063.2 billion yen, due to increased sales in the Energy and Electric Systems, Industrial Automation Systems, Electronic Devices and Home Appliances segments.
