Summary of Financial Results for the First Quarter of the Fiscal Year Ending December 2026 [Japanese GAAP] (Consolidated)

In the first quarter of the fiscal year ending December 2026, net sales, operating profit, ordinary profit and net income all fell below the year-earlier period, resulting in lower sales and lower profits. The full-year earnings forecast was left unchanged because it is difficult to reasonably incorporate the impact of the situation in the Middle East.

The reasons the company gives

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

Factors contributing to lower profits included a decrease in sales volume of refrigerating machine oil materials due to inventory adjustments in the air-conditioning market and other factors, higher manufacturing costs resulting from extensive scheduled maintenance, and the continued inflow of imported products. Meanwhile, electronic materials posted higher sales and higher profits as the company captured demand for advanced semiconductors driven by increased investment related to generative AI. The full-year forecast was left unchanged because the impact of the situation in the Middle East is highly uncertain and difficult to reflect reasonably.
