Revised forecast
Fiscal year ending March 2026 · Full yearPrevious forecast published Announced on 29 October 2025The bar length represents the relative magnitude of change, based on the item that changed the most in this document. The percentage change shown by the dotted line is calculated from the two reported figures because the company did not provide the rate.
Net sales are expected to decline by ¥1.0 billion, mainly due to lower sales of organometallic catalysts. As catalyst demand has declined amid oversupply of petrochemical products following expanded production capacity in China, and uncertainty regarding demand for optical materials and other products has also increased, the Company has made a conservative assessment of future plans and expects to recognize a ¥6.5 billion impairment loss on fixed assets related to multi-plant operations as an extraordinary loss. Net income after the application of tax-effect accounting will be revised accordingly.
