- Overview of operating results, etc.
- Overview of operating results for the fiscal year under review
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 (from April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2025), the global economy remained firm particularly in the U.S. despite the impact of an economic downturn in China and geopolitical risks such as the situation in the Middle East. The Japanese economy also showed signs of a moderate recovery amid continuing improvement of the employment and income environment. On the other hand, there are concerns about the impact of the U.S. trade policy on the global economy, and there is a sense of uncertainty about the outlook.
In the electronics industry, the Organo Group’s main market, the overall situation continued to be brisk, as capital investment for cutting-edge semiconductors increased, reflecting increased demand for semiconductors related to generative artificial intelligence (AI). On the other hand, demand for semiconductors other than for AI applications, such as those for electric vehicles (EV) and smartphones, decreased and there was a sense of stagnation in certain fields. In the general industry, capital investment in the electronics peripherals field in Japan increased in line with the increase in capital investment in the electronics industry, and demand for maintenance generally remained at a high level. In the social infrastructure field, such as electric power/water supply and sewage, demand for replacement of facilities, various maintenance services, etc. remained strong.
Under these conditions, while promoting order-taking and delivery activities for large-scale projects in Japan and overseas, the Organo Group executed investment related to digital transformation (DX) with the aim of enhancing the efficiency of plant engineering processes and took steps to expand production and delivery capacities, such as promotion of measures for development and deployment of human resources worldwide. We have also promoted various measures to enhance R&D aimed at the creation of next-generation technology and new businesses, reinforce human capital by expanding recruitment and training, enhance sustainability and governance, and renew the enterprise system to promote efficient and rational digital management.
As a result, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, orders received increased by 4.7% year on year to
¥151,272 million, net sales increased by 8.6% year on year to ¥163,269 million, operating profit increased by 38.0% to ¥31,120 million, ordinary profit increased by 35.1% to ¥31,639 million, profit attributable to owners of parent increased by 39.5% to ¥24,150 million, and return on equity (ROE) was 21.7%, compared to 18.4% for the previous fiscal year. Orders received were lower than the initial plan but exceeded the previous fiscal year’s result. Net sales and the respective profit figures surpassed the actual results of the previous fiscal year and the levels of the initial plan across the board and achieved record highs as in the previous fiscal year. The carry-over balance for the order backlog, which will form the basis for sales from the next fiscal year onward, was ¥105,778 million (down 8.5% year on year), remaining at a high level.

■Orders received
Orders received increased 4.9% year on year to ¥126,327 million. In the electronics industry, orders received were lower than the initial forecast because orders for large-scale projects in Japan, China, and Southeast Asia were received later than expected, with some still pending, although orders received in the Plant Division increased, mainly because orders received in Taiwan exceeded expectations. Orders received in the Service Solutions Division also increased, reflecting strong demand for solutions projects both in Japan and overseas, such as facility-owned services and various maintenance services. Orders received increased in the general industry, too, mainly due to orders received for ultrapure water facility for Hyper-Kamiokande and for large projects for electronics peripherals, in addition to the strong demand for solutions projects. On the other hand, orders received in the social infrastructure field decreased somewhat, owing to a decline in projects for water purification plants, despite orders received for replacement of power plans in Japan.
■Net sales
Net sales increased 9.3% year on year to ¥138,130 million. In the electronics industry, net sales increased, reflecting steady progress of construction of large-scale projects in Taiwan and strong sales of solutions projects, such as facility-owned services and various maintenance services, replacement of expendable items for the facilities delivered, as well as renovation and reconditioning. In the general industry, net sales also increased, reflecting mostly steady progress in plant projects ordered in the previous fiscal year or earlier and strong sales of solutions projects. In the social infrastructure field, net sales increased, reflecting robust sales centering on power plants in Japan.
■Operating profit
Operating profit increased 43.3% year on year to ¥27,382 million. This was attributable to an increase in sales from plant projects and growth in sales in the Service Solutions Division, whose profitability is higher than that for the Plant Division, and a higher gross profit margin. The gross profit margin of the Plant Division improved owing to the favorable order-receiving environment against the backdrop of strong capital investment, as well as various initiatives for profit improvement. The gross profit margin of the Service Solutions Division also improved mainly due to the growth of facility-owned services whose profitability is relatively high.

■Orders received/Net sales
Orders received increased 3.7% year on year to ¥24,944 million and net sales increased 4.9% year on year to ¥25,139 million. Against the backdrop of strong semiconductor demand, sales of products for the electronics industry, including RO membrane protection chemicals and wastewater treatment chemicals, were brisk, resulting in an increase in net sales of the Water Treatment Chemicals Division. Net sales of the Standard Equipment and Functional Materials Division also increased, mainly due to an increase in sales of functional materials, such as ion exchange resin used for separation and refinement of electronic materials. On the other hand, net sales of the Food Products Division, which handles various food processing agents for processed foods, decreased due to progress of liquidation of unprofitable transactions.
■Operating profit
Operating profit increased 8.9% year on year to ¥3,738 million. In addition to an increase in net sales of the products in general, an increase in sales of water treatment chemicals and functional materials for the electronics industry whose gross profit margin is relatively high, and the implementation of profit improvement measures, including price increases in line with increases in raw material prices, resulted in higher operating profit.
- Overview of financial position for the fiscal year under review
Current assets
Current assets as of March 31, 2025 amounted to ¥164,367 million, an increase of ¥10,897 million from the previous fiscal year end. This was mainly due to an increase of ¥7,697 million in investments in leases.
Non-current assets
Non-current assets as of March 31, 2025 amounted to ¥30,028 million, an increase of ¥795 million from the previous fiscal year end. This was mainly due to an increase of ¥542 million in construction in progress.
Current liabilities
Current liabilities as of March 31, 2025 amounted to ¥64,401 million, a decrease of ¥8,201 million from the previous fiscal year end. This was mainly due to a decrease of ¥15,187 million in short-term borrowings, despite an increase of ¥5,405 million in notes and accounts payable - trade.
Non-current liabilities
Non-current liabilities as of March 31, 2025 amounted to ¥8,799 million, an increase of ¥846 million from the previous fiscal year end. This was mainly due to an increase of ¥1,280 million in long-term borrowings.
Net Assets
Net assets as of March 31, 2025 amounted to ¥121,194 million, an increase of ¥19,046 million from the previous fiscal year end. This was mainly due to an increase of ¥18,075 million in retained earnings resulting from the recording of profit attributable to owners of parent.
- Overview of cash flows for the fiscal year under review
Cash and cash equivalents (hereinafter, “cash”) as of March 31, 2025 decreased by ¥891 million from the previous fiscal year end to ¥16,751 million.
Cash flows from operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was ¥21,100 million. This was mainly because there was an increase in cash due to profit before income taxes despite a decrease in cash related to facility-owned services. (Net cash of ¥3,726 million was provided in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024.)
The increase in investments in leases of ¥7,697 million in the statement of cash flows was mainly due to the transfer from inventories to investments in leases due to the completion of facilities for facility-owned services.
Cash flows from investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities was ¥2,130 million. This was mainly because there was a decrease in cash due to the purchase of property, plant and equipment of ¥2,262 million. (Net cash of ¥1,415 million was used in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024.)
Cash flows from financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities was ¥20,821 million. The main items were a net decrease in short-term borrowings of ¥15,796 million and dividends paid of ¥6,074 million. (Net cash of ¥641 million was used in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024.)
- Future outlook
With respect to the earnings forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, plans call for orders received of ¥180,000 million (up 19.0% year on year), net sales of ¥175,000 million (up 7.2% year on year), operating profit of ¥31,500 million (up 1.2% year on year), ordinary profit of ¥32,000 million (up 1.1% year on year), profit attributable to owners of parent of ¥24,200 million (up 0.2% year on year), and return on equity (ROE) of 18.8%.
Regarding orders received, we anticipate receiving orders for several large-scale semiconductor projects planned in Japan, Taiwan, and the U.S., among others. Regarding net sales, in addition to an increase in orders for large-scale projects, we expect progress in the construction of large-scale projects, which are included in the carry-over balance for order backlog, as well as higher sales in service solutions, such as maintenance and facility-owned services, and also of sales of water treatment chemicals and other performance products. In terms of profit, we anticipate increases in operating profit and other profit figures due to the effect of increased revenue from the expansion of sales, although plans call for a
proactive increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, including personnel expenses, investments for digital technology, and R&D expenses.
Amid the turmoil in the stock market and foreign exchange trends due to the U.S. tariff policy and other factors, there are concerns about a possible global recession. Uncertainty is prevailing in the electronics industry, our core market, regarding the trend of the semiconductor market. While there are concerns about possible postponement or suspension of investment plans for some projects, there are also signs that investment plans that exceed expectations are being considered, particularly for cutting-edge semiconductors. The currently identified impact, such as the situations of individual projects, is reflected in the earnings forecasts. However, we are not yet able to anticipate certain factors, such as the indirect impact of the economic downturn, and we will continue to closely monitor developments.

Transfer of shares of a consolidated subsidiary
At a meeting of the Board of Directors held on November 29, 2024, the Company resolved to transfer part of its shareholding in the consolidated subsidiary PT Lautan Organo Water (hereinafter referred to as “LOW”) to PT Lautan Air Indonesia (hereinafter referred to as “LAI”), a subsidiary of PT Lautan Luas Tbk (hereinafter referred to as “LTL”) that is the Company’s partner in the joint venture LOW, as described below, and transferred shares on April 11, 2025.
Upon completion of the share transfer, LOW ceased to be a consolidated subsidiary, and became an equity-method affiliate, of the Company.
Reason for the share transfer
In 2012, the Company acquired 51% of the issued shares in LOW, which was LTL’s subsidiary under the name of PT Hydro Hitech Optima at the time. Through this joint venture with LTL, the Company has since engaged in the water treatment business targeting both Japanese and Indonesian clients; however, the business has been growing at a slower pace than initially anticipated.
LTL, meanwhile, has been expanding its water treatment business through LAI, a group company that conducts the business with focus on water treatment chemicals. Based on the consideration that the best way to boost LOW’s water treatment business in Indonesia would be to enhance the synergy with the LTL Group, the Company decided to transfer part of its shareholding to LAI.
Going forward, the Company will continue to engage in the water treatment business in Indonesia through this joint venture with the LTL Group, while always being mindful of optimizing the business portfolio.
