TOKYO, Japan ― Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE: 6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced the consolidated financial forecasts for the nine months ending September 30, 2021.
The Group reports its consolidated forecasts for the next quarter (cumulative quarters) as a range because of the difficulty of forecasting full-year results with high accuracy due to the short-term volatility of the semiconductor market. Additionally, in order to provide useful information to better understand the Group’s constant business results, figures such as gross margin and operating margin are presented in the non-GAAP format, which excludes or adjusts the non-recurring items related to acquisitions and other adjustments including non-recurring expenses or income from the financial figures (GAAP, IFRS basis) following a certain set of rules. However, the figure provided as revenue is based on IFRS and does not include non-GAAP adjustments. The revenue forecast is provided assuming the midpoint and the range of the forecast are listed in brackets. The gross margin and operating margin forecasts are given assuming the midpoint in the revenue forecast.

Note: Non-GAAP figures are calculated by removing or adjusting non-recurring items and other adjustments from GAAP(IFRS based) figures following a certain set of rules. The Group believes non-GAAP measures provide useful information in understanding and evaluating the Group’s constant business results, and therefore results are provided in non-GAAP base. This adjustment and exclusion include the amortization of intangible assets recognized from acquisitions, other PPA (purchase price allocation) adjustments and stock-based compensation, as well as other non-recurring expenses and income the Group believes to be applicable.
The consolidated forecasts for the nine months ending September 30, 2021 are calculated by combining the forecasts for the three months ending September 30, 2021, to the financial results of the six months ended June 30, 2021. The consolidated forecasts for the nine months ending September 30, 2021 are calculated at the rate of 107 yen per USD and 129 yen per Euro.
