「During the consolidated fiscal year, the company strengthened collection of used chemicals serving as feedstock for recycled products and maintained strong volumes handled of recycled solvents. In addition, the volume of precious-metal and rare-metal recycling increased substantially following the conversion of A&Hジャパン株式会社 into a subsidiary in October 2025. As a result, net sales were ¥7,239 million, up 82.2% year on year.」
