Overview of Business Performance for Nine-Month Period under Review
During the first nine months of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, despite ongoing instability due to U.S. tariff policy, heightened geopolitical risks, and other factors, the global economy maintained steady growth, supported by fiscal and monetary easing policies in various countries.
In Japan, the economy has been recovering moderately amid factors such as rising incomes and robust inbound demand. At the same time, the market environment remained challenging, with consumers continuing to prioritize savings in response to rising food prices. The cost environment also remained challenging, with increases in energy costs and costs involved with the oils & fats business.
In such an environment, the Group is accelerating its growth trajectory using the CSV goals as growth drivers established in the six priorities under Vision 2030. Leveraging The Natural Power of Plants as a foundation for value creation, the Group aims for sustainable growth by creating diverse shared values with society. Additionally, we have set to achieve an ROE level as a material performance target that exceeds equity cost, and are committed to enhance profitability and asset efficiency. Under the medium-term business plan Value UpX covering FY2025 to FY2028, the Group will pursue initiatives with performance targets of ROE of 8.0% or higher and ROIC of 6.0% or higher for FY2028.
The financial results for the first nine months of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, are as follows:

In the nine months ended December 31, 2025, gain on transfer of fixed asset of ¥23,163 million is recorded as gain on sale of non-current assets under extraordinary income.
Overview by Segment
Originally, the Company classified the business categories under its reporting segments into the three categories of "Oil and Fat," "Processed Food and Materials," and "Fine Chemical." However, in line with the business strategy under the new medium-term business plan Value UpX, the business categories were changed to "Global Oil & Fat and Processed Oil & Fat," "Oil, Fat & Meal and Processed Food & Materials," and "Fine Chemical." This change is to properly indicate the actual state of business management in the Group.
Note that segment information for the nine months ended December 31, 2024, was prepared based on the categorization method following the change.

Market prices of palm oil increased year on year due to increased demand for palm oil resulting from biofuel policies in Indonesia, higher soybean oil market prices due to biofuel policies in the U.S., and other factors.
In the global oil & fat and processed oil & fat segment, at Intercontinental Specialty Fats Sdn. Bhd. (ISF) in Malaysia, demand for confectionery fats that are substitutable for cocoa butter increased against the backdrop of surging cocoa bean market prices in the previous fiscal year, and as a result, sales volume of confectionery fats increased. Also, unit sales prices rose due to higher market prices of palm oil compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year, resulting in an increase in net sales. Meanwhile, operating profit decreased due to the effects of mark-to-market valuation of palm oil transactions and other factors.

In the oil, fat & meal category, we implemented price revisions amid a harsh cost environment characterized by rising energy costs, logistics expenses, and packaging/materials costs, coupled with higher oil & fat costs. The revisions, however, proved more difficult than anticipated, and sales volume declined, particularly for household-use products, resulting in lower net sales and operating profit.
In the processed food & materials category, net sales and operating profit increased due to sales price revisions implemented in conjunction with soaring raw material prices, primarily for chocolate.
As a result of the above developments, net sales and operating profit for the segment as a whole decreased due to substantial effects from the oil, fat & meal category.

In terms of raw material procurement, soybean prices fell year on year due to the yen growing in strength against the U.S. dollar year on year and market prices for soybeans also falling. Meanwhile, rapeseed prices exceeded year-on-year levels, largely due to the impact of rising rapeseed market prices.
Market prices of major raw materials
Regarding market prices for soybeans, concerns for the decline in demand due to the announcement of the U.S. tariff policy caused market prices to temporarily fall to the US$9-range in April. Subsequently, market prices fluctuated between the high US$9-range and the US$10-range due to the upward trend in volumes of mandatory biofuel blending and production volume forecasts in the U.S. Based on expectations for a recovery of export demand for U.S. soybeans following agreement by the U.S. and China in late October, market prices rose to the US$11-range for the first time since July 2024, but were lower than in the same period of the previous fiscal year. As for market prices for rapeseed, transactions rose to the mid-C$700-range in June due to concerns over a drop in production in Canada. Later, market prices fell to the low C$600-range as concerns over reduced demand arose following China's August announcement of anti-dumping duties on Canadian rapeseed, compounded by expectations of a bumper crop in Canada. However, rapeseed market prices rose in tandem with soybean market prices from October onward, climbing to the mid-C$600 range, resulting in an increase the same period of the
previous fiscal year.
Exchange rates
The U.S. dollar-yen market saw the yen appreciate against the U.S. dollar, temporarily reaching under 140 yen in late April, affected mainly by the U.S. tariff policy. Subsequently, the yen depreciated against the U.S. dollar to the high 150-yen range in November due to receding concerns of a U.S. recession and concerns of fiscal deterioration in Japan due to expansionary fiscal policies after the Liberal Democratic Party presidential election in October, but the yen was higher against the dollar than in the same period of the previous fiscal year.
Sales of oil & fatIn commercial-use products, efforts were made to expand sales through active proposals of our marketing-based functional product line. However, as a result of prioritizing price revisions driven by higher costs, users' desire to reduce the use of oil, and other factors, sales volume decreased slightly year on year, particularly for basic-type products. Meanwhile, net sales increased following sales price revisions.
In the food processing sector, due to heightened consumer awareness of protecting their current standard of living caused by high prices coupled with further price adjustments in various industries, even sales of certain products that had been performing strongly to this point showed a slowing trend, resulting in a slight decrease in sales volume. Nevertheless, our efforts to persistently negotiate price revisions commensurate with market prices for raw materials yielded an increase in net sales.
For household-use products, we worked to entrench flaxseed oil and other "pour-and-enjoy fresh edible oils" as well as re-expand the sales of olive oils, whose market slumped in the previous fiscal year due to surging raw material prices. We also strove to continuously penetrate the market with marketing-based functional products and to revise the prices of cooking oils. However, amid a stronger mindset among consumers to protect their current standard of living against the backdrop of price hikes, sales volume fell year on year, resulting in a decrease in net sales.
In terms of profit, although continuous efforts were made to revise prices amid rising costs, it proved more difficult than anticipated, and gross profit per unit fell year on year. This, coupled with the decrease in sales volume mainly for household-use products, led to a decrease in operating profit.
In the processed oil & fat sector in Japan, sales volume grew largely due to an increase in customers' adoption of our products resulting from solution proposal efforts that addressed issues and needs, and a continued increase in demand for confectionery fats triggered by cocoa butter price surge. Additionally, price revisions for confectionery fats, shortenings and other items also contributed to higher net sales and operating profit.
Sales of oil mealsAs for soybean meal, sales volume grew due to efforts to expand sales following an increase in crushing volume. Meanwhile, because market prices for soybeans on the Chicago Board of Trade fell considerably and the yen was strong against the U.S. dollar, unit sales prices fell greatly, leading to a decrease in net sales.
As for rapeseed meal, although crushing volume declined, our efforts to expand sales translated into a flat sales volume compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year. Meanwhile, the impact of lower prices for soybean meal and other factors caused unit sales prices for rapeseed meal to fall, which led to a decrease in net sales.

In chocolate products, the market in Japan contracted due to soaring prices for chocolate, and sales volume decreased year on year. Nevertheless, net sales and operating profit increased as a result of appropriate price revisions commensurate with costs.
In functional materials and foods, net sales increased due to an increase in the sales volume of MCT (Medium Chain Triglyceride) products and sales at appropriate prices. In addition, operating profit was higher as a result of lower selling, general and administrative expenses.

In the fine chemical segment, we expanded our solution proposals through technical support for skincare products in addition to makeup products. New adoptions of our products, mainly in Japan, contributed to an increase in sales volume that translated into net sales growth. Operating profit was flat compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year.

[Deferral of cost variances]
Cost variances arising from seasonally fluctuating operating rates are deferred as current liabilities (other), because such variances are expected to be mostly eliminated by the end of the cost accounting period.
Notes on segment informationOverview of reporting segments
The Company has established operating divisions by product; each division conducts business activities by formulating comprehensive domestic and overseas strategies for the products it handles. Therefore, the Company's business consists of product segments based on the operating divisions, with three reporting segments: "Global Oil & Fat and Processed Oil & Fat," "Oil, Fat & Meal and Processed Food & Materials," and "Fine Chemical."
Main products for each reporting segment can be found in the chart below:
Business category

Processed oil & fat (confectionery fats), edible oils for commercial use, oils & fats for food processing
Oil, Fat & Meal and Processed Food &

Matters regarding changes in reporting segments
Originally, the Company classified the business categories under its reporting segments into the three categories of "Oil and Fat," "Processed Food and Materials," and "Fine Chemical." However, in line with the business strategy under the new medium-term business plan Value UpX, the business categories were changed to "Global Oil & Fat and Processed Oil & Fat," "Oil, Fat & Meal and Processed Food & Materials," and "Fine Chemical." This change is to properly indicate the actual state of business management in the Group.
Note that segment information for the nine months ended December 31, 2024, was prepared based on the categorization method following the change.
