Summary of Financial Results for the Second Quarter (Interim Period) of the Fiscal Year Ending March 2027 [Japanese GAAP] (Consolidated)

For the interim period of the fiscal year ending March 2027, net sales and operating income fell below the year-earlier period, while interim net income attributable to owners of the parent increased, due in part to gains on the sale of fixed assets. The full-year forecast for net sales was unchanged, while forecasts for operating income, ordinary income and net income were revised downward. The annual dividend forecast was unchanged.

Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

In the domestic and overseas exterior materials businesses, the company worked on price revisions, but sales in the U.S. exterior materials business declined following its withdrawal from the general-purpose exterior materials business. On the earnings side, the effects of price revisions and the withdrawal from unprofitable businesses in the U.S. supported earnings, while increases in energy and material prices, logistics costs and other expenses, as well as an increase in foreign exchange losses, reduced earnings. Net income increased due in part to a gain on the sale of fixed assets by a Chinese subsidiary.

These are items the company does not state in this document. We do not leave them blank, nor fill them in from other sources or by inference.

The reasons the company gives

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

Because increases in energy and material prices, logistics costs and other expenses, which reduced earnings in the first half, are expected to continue in the second half, operating income, ordinary income and net income attributable to owners of the parent were reduced from the previous forecasts. The company cited, among other factors, the recognition of a gain on the sale of fixed assets as an extraordinary gain by a Chinese subsidiary as part of a business reorganisation as the reason for the increase in interim net income.
