Proper use of earnings forecast, and other special notes (Business profit and EBITDA)
Although business profit and EBITDA are not disclosures under IFRS, the Company believes that these disclosures provide useful information to investors. The details of business profit and EBITDA are as follows.
Business profit: A profit indicator that measures the Company's recurring operating results, which are determined by deducting cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses from net sales
EBITDA: A profit indictor that is determined by adding back depreciation, which is recorded as cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses, to business profit

Overview of Consolidated Financial Results

Operating results
The Group's operating results for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 (hereinafter, the "period under review") were as follows: Net sales were ¥87,296 million (up 0.2% year-on-year), business profit was ¥31,471 million (down 1.2% year-on-year), operating profit was ¥30,451 million (down 7.3% year-on-year), and profit attributable to owners of parent was ¥21,267 million (down 8.9% year-on-year).
During the period under review, although the yen appreciated compared with the same period of the previous fiscal year and the previous period included sales of Phosphor films (which ended at the end of the previous semi-annual consolidated period) as well as a buildup of new deliveries of Anti-reflection films (ARF) for automotives, the Group achieved growth in sales of high-value-added products such as optical semiconductors for data centers and Pre-cut Anisotropic conductive films (ACF) for camera modules. As a result, net sales increased year-on-year.
Despite the increase in net sales, business profit decreased due to an increase in fixed costs associated with growth investments, particularly in optical semiconductors. Operating profit and profit attributable to owners of parent also declined year-on-year. Operating results by segment and sales by product category are presented as follows.
-
Optical Materials and Components
During the period under review, the Optical films product category reported a year-on-year decrease in sales due to the impact of sales in the previous period, which included Phosphor films and a buildup of new deliveries of Anti-reflection films (ARF) for automotives, as well as a delay in the delivery timing of ARF for laptop PC displays in the third quarter.
The Optical resin materials product category reported a year-on-year decrease in sales as shipment volumes decreased for certain models using Optical elastic resins (SVR), despite an increase in shipment volumes for certain models adopting Smart precision Adhesives.
As a result, the business segment reported net sales of ¥37,672 million (down 9.7% year-on-year) and business profit of ¥12,002 million (down 12.0% year-on-year).
-
Electronic Materials and Components
During the period under review, the Anisotropic conductive films (ACF) product category reported a year-on-year increase in sales as usage of high-value-added Pre-cut ACF for camera modules increased, despite the impact of pull-forward demand in the previous fiscal year for display-related ACF.
The Surface mount fuse product category reported a year-on-year increase in sales due to a recovery in production following the completion of inventory adjustments by a major customer for products for power tools in the previous fiscal year, in addition to continued sales of BBU (battery backup units) for data centers.
The Photonics product category reported a year-on-year increase in sales due to an increase in the shipping quantity of high-speed response photodiodes for optical transceivers and monitor photodiodes for telecommunications equipment in optical semiconductors.
As a result, the business segment reported net sales of ¥50,292 million (up 9.3% year-on-year) and business profit of ¥19,468 million (up 6.8% year-on-year).
Note: Segment sales include inter-segment transactions.

Financial position
Total assets at the end of the period under review amounted to ¥155,545 million, an increase of ¥3,724 million from the end of the previous fiscal year, due to increases in property, plant and equipment, trade and other receivables, which were partially offset by decreases in cash and cash equivalents and deferred tax assets.
Total liabilities amounted to ¥53,592 million, a decrease of ¥2,313 million from the end of the previous fiscal year, due to decreases in income taxes payable and interest-bearing debt under current liabilities, despite increases in other financial liabilities and trade and other payables.
Total equity amounted to ¥101,953 million, an increase of ¥6,037 million from the end of the previous fiscal year, due to an increase in retained earnings, despite an increase in treasury shares.
- Forward-looking statements including consolidated earnings forecast
The full-year earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 remains unchanged from that announced in the
"Consolidated Financial Results for the Six Months Ended September 30, 2025" disclosed on November 12, 2025.
