Each line is the climb from the baseline the document states to the target it sets. The slope is scaled against the largest climb in this document. For metrics expressed as percentages, differences are shown in percentage points (pt).The increase shown by the dotted line is calculated from the two reported figures because the company did not provide the amount of growth.

Statements about the use of capital
Payout ratio / DOE policyThe basic policy is to maintain stable dividends, with a dividend of ¥50 planned for FY2026. From FY2027 onward, Teijin will consider introducing DOE and aims to raise the DOE level through profitable growth and improved ROE. The applicable period is FY2026 and FY2027 onward.The payout ratio is the proportion of profit paid out as dividends, while DOE is the ratio of dividends to net assets.
Self-assessment of PBR and share priceTeijin will build the foundation for a reassessment of its low PBR and aims to achieve a PBR of at least 1x at an early stage by improving ROE and increasing the likelihood of achieving the Medium-Term Management Plan.PBR is a measure of how many times the share price is the book value per share.

Size of the Target MarketThe para-aramid market is growing at approximately 4% annually. The market size in monetary terms and the source are not disclosed.
Risks identified by the company
Acceleration in the commoditization of materials
A phase requiring a review of the capital expenditure-led business model
Population decline, rising labor costs and inflows of Chinese products in Japan's textile industry
Continued oversupply in the aramid market
Deterioration in the supply-demand balance for PC resins and intensifying competition in general-purpose applications
Tightening of PFAS regulations in Europe
Policies aimed at restraining insurance expenditures
Widening supply-demand gap and declining selling prices for carbon fiber
Reason for revision or withdrawal

The medium-term numerical targets were not achieved, partly due to changes in the operating environment for materials businesses. Profitability has not yet fully recovered amid changes in market conditions, and Teijin is implementing fundamental structural reforms in its aramid, carbon fiber and pharmaceutical businesses without being bound by past strategies.

These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.

The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

Teijin believes that its materials-driven business model has reached an impasse due to the commoditization of materials and the increasing complexity of social issues. It will shift to customer-driven businesses and restore and improve profitability through structural reforms and the strengthening of its management platform. Another reason is that the previous Medium-Term Management Plan failed to meet its medium-term numerical targets, partly due to changes in the operating environment for materials businesses.
