    FY2025 Overview Highlights

    Net sales increased. Operating profit and ordinary profit decreased; however, profit attributable to owners of parent increased.

    • Net sales increased, driven by strong sales of products for the industrial field, mainly in the

      Materials business and the Industrial gases & machinery business.

    • Operating profit declined due to lower profitability in helium and the negative impact of LPG import price fluctuations.

    • Profit attributable to owners of parent increased partly due to a gain on the sale of fixed assets.

    Summary of Financial Results for FY2025

Due to the finalization of the provisional accounting treatment for the business combination with ISG, Inc., operating profit, ordinary profit, and profit attributable to owners of parent for FY2024 have been revised from the amounts previously announced. All data presented in this material reflect the above revision.
