In our Medium-term Management Plan "Challenge 2027," which started this fiscal year, we have positioned several businesses, including ammonium perchlorate, a solid propellant ingredient for space rockets and defense-related products, as priority areas, focus areas, and development areas, and are promoting management based on a new business portfolio.

The three years from fiscal year 2025 to fiscal year 2027, which is the period of the mid-term plan, are positioned as the "Investment Promotion" stage. To achieve business growth and profit expansion in the final year, we will actively execute investments such as production capacity enhancement, new production facilities, and energy-saving and labor-saving measures.

By executing our management philosophy of "For Confidence and Infinite Challenges," we aim to promote the growth of existing businesses and establish new businesses, while also promoting management that is conscious of the cost of capital and the share price in pursuing improvements in corporate value enlisting PBR as a benchmark.

1. ‌Overview of Business Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025

   1. Explanation of operating results

      In the three months ended June 30, 2025, performances were solid in the Chemical Products segment's Explosives and Ceramics, as well as in the Metal Working segment and in the Engineering Services segment, resulting in increased profits. This is due to the positive impact of our sales efforts such as the reflection of fair prices, in addition to the solid demand in the domestic market.

      On the other hand, Material assessment service, Chemicals, Silicon wafers within the Chemical Products segment, along with the Bottling segment experienced profit declines. Particularly, the inventory valuation losses in Silicon wafers and the reduction in the operation of the hot-temperature filling production line in the Bottling segment had a significant impact on the business results.

      Although profit before income taxes increased compared to the same period last year, the profit attributable to owners of parent decreased. This is due to changes in the estimated effective tax rate resulting from the merger conducted on October 1, 2024.

      Consequently, on the whole, the results are as follows.

      (Millions of yen, unless otherwise noted)

      	Three months ended Jun. 30, 2024	Three months ended Jun. 30, 2025	Amount of change	Rate of change
      Net sales	8,760	8,655	(104)	(1.2)%
      Operating profit	378	445	67	17.7%
      Ordinary profit	533	581	47	8.9%
      Profit attributable to owners of parent	365	299	(66)	(18.1)%

   2. Explanations by business segment

On October 1, 2024, the Company transitioned from a holding company into an operating holding company by merging with its consolidated subsidiaries, Japan Carlit Co., Ltd. and Silicon Technology Corporation, with the Company as the surviving entity. Accordingly, management categories were revised, and financial information of the Company that was included in the Other segment prior to this reorganization is now included in the Chemical Products segment. The year-on-year analysis uses business results for the three months ended June 30, 2024, that have been revised based on this change in reporting segments.

Our main products and services are as follows.

Chemical Products segment

Explosives = increase in sales and profit

・Industrial explosives experienced a decrease in sales volume due to reduced demand for crushing limestone, but sales increased due to the reflection of fair prices. Profit remained flat.
