  1. Overview of operating results, etc

    1. Overview of operating results during the period

During the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027 (April 1, 2026 through June 30, 2026), the economic environment remained uncertain due to concerns over rising energy prices and potential disruptions to supply chains stemming from escalating tensions in the Middle East. At the same time, increased capital investment, particularly in AI and digital-related sectors, supported economic activity, resulting in generally resilient conditions despite regional disparities. In the United States, the economy remained strong, supported by capital investment and productivity improvements related to AI data centers, stable employment conditions, and steady personal consumption. In Europe, rising energy prices and mounting inflationary pressures weighed on economic activity; however, the impact was partially mitigated by increased fiscal spending. In China, while domestic demand remained weak, particularly in the real estate market, economic activity was supported by expanding investment and export growth in high-tech industries. In Japan, although inflationary pressures associated with yen depreciation and rising resource prices remained a concern, improvements in employment and income conditions, together with increased capital investment mainly in semiconductor and electronic component-related industries, helped support the economy.

Under these circumstances, in the key markets of Nitto Group (the "Group"), demand for materials used in data centers and semiconductors increased, supported by the expansion of the AI data center-related market, and demand for materials used in high-end smartphones also remained strong. In addition, the Group continued its efforts to mitigate the impact of rising raw material prices on earnings through pricing optimization.

Separately, the yen's exchange rate against the U.S. dollar for the first quarter ended June 30, 2026, was 159.3 yen to the dollar, a 9.3% depreciation of the yen compared with the same period of the previous year, and the effect of the weaker yen increased operating profit by 8.7 billion yen.

As a result of the above, revenue increased by 10.3% from the same period of the previous year (changes hereafter are given in comparison with the same period of the previous year) to 271,672 million yen. Operating profit increased by 15.4% to 49,210 million yen, profit before income taxes increased by 14.5% to 49,581 million yen, net profit increased by 8.2% to 33,887 million yen, and net profit attributable to owners of the parent company increased by 8.2% to 33,872 million yen.

Summary of results by segment

① Industrial Tape

In Functional Base Products, revenue increased from the same period of the previous year. Demand for assembly materials used in high-end smartphones increased, due to the expansion of models adopting electric debonding tape for battery bonding. In addition, demand for process materials used in the production of semiconductor memories and ceramic capacitors increased against the backdrop of growing AI server demand. In general industrial materials and automotive materials, selling prices were revised to address rising raw material costs.

As a result of the above, revenue increased by 17.8% to 101,076 million yen and operating profit increased by 64.9% to 16,280 million yen.

② Optronics

In Information Fine Materials, revenue did not reach the level of the same period of the previous year. Demand for optical films used in automotive displays, a growth area, remained strong. On the other hand, demand for optical films used in high-end laptop PCs and tablets decreased significantly due to production adjustments by customers resulting from rising memory semiconductor prices.

In Circuit Materials, revenue increased from the same period of the previous year. For high-precision circuits used in high-end smartphones, increased customer production, together with the launch of the Company's new product, contributed to revenue growth. Additionally, demand for Circuit Integrated Suspension (CIS) used in Hard Disk Drives (HDDs) with higher capacity for data centers was robust, driven by the growing adoption of generative AI.

As a result of the above, revenue increased by 1.3% to 132,199 million yen and operating profit decreased by 3.8% to 35,375 million yen.

③ Human Life

In Life Science, revenue increased from the same period of the previous year. Against the backdrop of the expanding oligonucleotide therapeutics market, production of a large-scale project in oligonucleotide contract manufacturing, which had transitioned to the commercial production stage in the second quarter of the previous fiscal year, contributed to revenue growth. For nucleic acid synthesis materials (NittoPhase™), demand increased as the global expansion of customers' commercial drugs progressed.

In Membrane (high-polymer separation membrane), revenue increased from the same period of the previous year. Demand for high-polymer separation membranes used in wastewater treatment increased particularly in India and China, driven by tightened wastewater discharge regulations in emerging markets.

In Personal Care Materials, revenue increased from the same period of the previous year. The Group promoted new products in hygiene materials for diapers and environmentally friendly products using biodegradable technologies.

As a result of the above, revenue increased by 25.6% to 40,776 million yen and operating loss amounted to 317 million yen. (operating loss of 1,630 million yen was reported in the same period of the previous year)

④ Others

Please note that this segment includes new products that have not generated sufficient revenue yet. The Group is concentrating its management resources on themes that are candidates for PlanetFlags™/HumanFlags™ in areas of advanced semiconductors, environmental solutions, and medical devices, with the aim of commercializing them as early as possible.

As a result of the above, revenue increased by 363.9% to 14 million yen and operating loss amounted to 1,843 million yen. (operating loss of 1,700 million yen was reported in the same period of the previous year)
