Johnson Electric'sinnovative technology and product portfolio remains well positioned to meetgrowing demand for the electrification of critical automotive functions toincrease powertrain efficiency, reduce vehicle weight, improve safety,reliability and enhance comfort.

Sales of IndustryProducts Group ("IPG")

IPG's sales for the quarterended 31 December 2020 increased by US$32 million or 21% compared to the samequarter in 2019. Excluding currency effects, IPG's sales increased by US$29million or 20% for the quarter.

IPG's business and financialperformance benefited significantly from changes in consumer behaviour andexpenditure in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. As consumers in manycountries were required to spend more time at home, the division experiencedstrong demand for products for food and beverage, floor care, home officeprinter, lawn and garden, window automation, power tool, sanitation andventilation applications. The medical segment also experienced strong growth,driven by the long-term imperative to reduce the labour intensity of hospitalprocedures.

These positive demanddynamics were partly offset by the COVID-19 pandemic's adverse impact on somespecific customers and market segments. In Europe and the Americas, sales tomany small and medium enterprises decreased as consumers switched to purchasingthrough the online sales channels of larger competitors. Commercial printers,metering, flexible printed products and switches segments were also slower thanusual.

On a regional basis, IPGexperienced the highest sales growth in Asia due in large part to the rapidrecovery of China's industrial sector and strong global demand for thecountry's manufactured goods. In Europe and the Americas, the path to recoveryin some segments has taken somewhat longer and in the US, in particular, IPG'ssales have been hampered by delays from port congestion as well as land andrail logistical bottlenecks. The sales changes by region, excluding currencyeffects, were as follows:

Chairman's Comments on SalesPerformance and Outlook

Concerning the quarter ended31 December 2020 sales performance, the Chairman and Chief Executive, Dr.Patrick Shui-Chung Wang, said, "The strong recovery in demand that weexperienced during the second quarter continued in the third quarter -- withsales levels in both APG and IPG running well ahead of the third quarter in theprior year.  Although there remains someuncertainty as to how the upsurge in COVID-19 in many Western countries couldimpact business activity and consumer confidence, the Group is presently on trackto deliver full-year total sales close to the level achieved in the priorfinancial year.  This would represent avery satisfactory achievement given the fact that such a large portion ofJohnson Electric's operations was either shutdown or significantly constrainedduring the first two months of the current financial year."
