Revised forecast
Fiscal year ending March 2027 · Full yearPrevious forecast published 15 May 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.
The sales forecast was revised downward because domestic demand and demand for core products, particularly in the Lifestyle and Industrial Materials-related businesses, remained firm, while demand for existing businesses in the Information-related segment fell below the initial assumptions. On the profit side, operating profit and ordinary profit are expected to exceed the forecast due to continued price pass-through for higher raw material prices resulting from the situation in the Middle East and expansion of high-value-added products. Net income is also expected to exceed the forecast because gains on the sale of investment securities are expected to increase as share prices rise.
