Revised forecast
Fiscal year ending March 2027 · Second quarter (interim period) and full yearPrevious forecast published 31 July 2026The 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.
For the interim period, selling prices failed to keep pace with the rapid rise in the price of steel scrap, the main raw material, which was higher than expected. For the full year, the forecast assumes an increase in the cost burden, including steel scrap prices remaining at elevated levels, continued yen weakness, higher energy costs due to the impact of the situation in the Middle East, and higher electricity costs under the electricity market price adjustment system operated by power companies.
