Full-scale launch of management that combines

business strategy and financial strategy



Today's Message

Business strategy

  • Faced with unexpected environmental factors such as the significantly rising price of chicken eggs and vegetables, and geopolitical risks, we have implemented swift price revisions in Japan to counter the situation while promoting structural reforms to switch to a high-profitability portfolio.

    We have also completed production enhancements amid steady growth overseas. In the

    future, we will increase demand by strengthening promotion.

    • Maintain volume after price revisions of value-added products used in the Food Service (eggs,

      cooking sauces, etc.).

      "Value for price" is valued by markets and contributes to our full-year operating income.

    • Strengthen our supply structure by operating three overseas plants (the US, Thailand and Indonesia).

    • Revise prices for Retail Market condiments. This will help achieve an operating income of 34.5 billion yen during this fiscal year, and also boost growth during the next fiscal year.

      Financial

      strategy

  • Improve profitability and governance by making AOHATA Corporation a wholly owned subsidiary.

  • Start the plan to improve capital efficiency by acquiring treasury shares worth 24.0 billion yen.

  • Maintained steady growth overseas primarily in the thriving Asia Pacific market.

  • Sales increased due to the increase in quantity and effect of price revisions

of eggs and cut vegetables in Japan.

  • Increased income by expanding sales overseas, while investing in future investment costs.
