The projections contained in this document are based on information currently available to NITTO BOSEKI CO., LTD. (hereinafter, the "Company") and certain assumptions that are deemed to be reasonable, and the Company does not intend to guarantee their achievement. Moreover, actual business and other results may differ from the forecast due to various factors going forward. For matters related to the forecasts, please see "(3) Explanation on Consolidated Earnings Forecasts for the Fiscal Year" of "1. Qualitative Information on Quarterly Financial Results" on page 3.

  1. Qualitative Information on Quarterly Financial Results
    1. Explanation on Operating Results

      During the first nine months ended December 31, 2025, unstable conditions persisted in the global economy, due to factors such as the uncertainty caused by the tariff policy of the United States and a slowdown in China's economy. In the Japanese economy, there were signs of gradual recovery due to a pickup in corporate earnings and capital investment, thereby reducing the uncertain outlook.

      In this environment, the Nittobo Group (hereinafter, the "Group") began its Medium-Term Management Plan (FY2024-2027) to achieve the Group's long-term vision [Big VISION 2030]. In order to help achieve a sustainable society, the Company aims to become a corporate group that continues to create a global niche No. 1 business that contributes to "Environment/Energy," "Digital Society," and "Health/Safety/Security."

      In the first nine months ended December 31, 2025, sales of high-value-added products were strong, particularly in the Electronic Materials Business. As a result, consolidated net sales were ¥87,594 million (up 7.5% year on year), operating profit was ¥14,933 million (up 26.4% year on year), ordinary profit was ¥15,245 million (up 15.5% year on year) and profit attributable to owners of parent was ¥35,110 million (up 272.7% year on year).

      The status of operations and initiatives being carried out in each business are as follows.

      In the Electronic Materials Business, strong demand related to AI servers continued, and factors such as strong sales of Special Glass with low thermal expansion properties for semiconductor package substrates and Special Glass with low-dielectric properties contributed to revenue. As a result, net sales in the Electronic Materials Business were ¥36,087 million (up 19.5% year on year) and operating profit was ¥13,827 million (up 39.6% year on year).

      In the Medical Business, although there was an impact from advancement in preferential treatment for domestic products in China, sales of products like in vitro diagnostic reagents were steady. We also continuously strengthened our foundation. As a result, net sales in the Medical Business were ¥10,322 million (up 0.1% year on year) and operating profit was ¥1,856 million (up 7.1% year on year).

      In the Composite Materials Business, sales were on a par with the previous year. In addition, in the same period of the previous fiscal year, there was an impact from higher costs associated with periodic repairs of production facilities. As a result, net sales in the Composite Materials Business were ¥10,040 million (up 0.2% year on year) and operating loss improved to ¥185 million (compared with an operating loss of ¥731 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year).

      In the Materials Solution Business, although price increases contributed to sales, there was an impact from higher costs of raw materials, etc. As a result, net sales in the Materials Solution Business were ¥7,029 million (down 1.9% year on year) and operating profit was ¥386 million (down 31.2% year on year).

      In the Insulation Materials Business, sales remained sluggish for residential sector, and there was an impact from higher costs associated with periodic repairs of production facilities. As a result, net sales in the Insulation Materials Business were ¥11,420 million (down 2.7% year on year) and operating profit was ¥94 million (down 87.1% year on year).

      In the Other Businesses, net sales were ¥12,694 million (up 5.0% year on year) and operating profit was ¥435 million (up 34.5% year on year).

    2. Explanation on Financial Position

      Total assets as of December 31, 2025 were ¥272,589 million, an increase of ¥49,484 million from the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly attributable to an increase in cash and deposits.

      Total liabilities were ¥101,231 million, an increase of ¥13,955 million from the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly attributable to an increase in income taxes payable.

      Net assets were ¥171,358 million, and the equity-to-asset ratio was 60.5%, up 2.4 percentage points from the end of the previous fiscal year.

    3. Explanation on Consolidated Earnings Forecasts for the Fiscal Year

    After giving consideration to the operating results of the first nine months ended December 31, 2025, and the outlook for the business environment, the Company has upwardly revised its consolidated earnings forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026.
