  1. ‌Overview of Annual Results

    1. ‌Overview of Consolidated Operating Results

      In the current fiscal year under review, the Japanese economy was affected by rising prices; however, it continued to experience a moderate recovery, supported by improvements in employment and income conditions as well as the effects of economic measures and other factors.

      In the cement industry, domestic demand for cement was 30,532 thousand tons, down 6.5% from the previous fiscal year, as both public and private sector demand decreased due to a chronic labor shortage and the adoption of the five-day workweek in the construction industry. On the other hand, exports grew by 7.1% year on year. As a result, the total sales volume of domestic manufacturers, including exports, was down 3.8% from the previous fiscal year to 39,299 thousand tons.

      Under these circumstances, based on the "FY2023-25 Medium-Term Management Plan," which ends in the current fiscal year, our group has been working on various measures such as "improving profitability of existing businesses" to recover the profitability of the cement business and to improve profitability by acquiring market shares in next-generation optical communication parts; "building a foundation for growth" to expand scale and enhance profitability by investing resources in the electronic materials business for semiconductor manufacturing equipment, expand overseas business (the Australian business), and develop new business in the decarbonization field; and "strengthening management foundation" to develop strategies for human resources, research and development, intellectual property, and digital transformation (DX).

      As a result of the above, net sales for the current fiscal year under review totaled 223,686 million yen, up 1.9% from the previous fiscal year, due to increased sales in the cement business and advanced materials business.

      In terms of profits, ordinary profit totaled 14,405 million yen, up 5,038 million yen year on year, mainly due to higher profits in the cement business, among others. Despite the recording of impairment losses on non-current assets under extraordinary losses, profit attributable to owners of the parent was 11,214 million yen, a year-on-year increase of 2,205 million yen.

      An overview by business is as follows.

      1. Cement

        The domestic sales volume was lower than the previous fiscal year. However, mainly due to the domestic selling price being raised in response to a cost increase, net sales were 158,799 million yen, an increase of 2,359 million yen (1.5%) from the previous fiscal year, and operating profit was 5,495 million yen, an increase of 4,617 million yen (526.0%) year on year.

      2. Mineral Resources

        Due to price revisions, net sales were 17,505 million yen, an increase of 137 million yen (0.8 %) from the previous fiscal year. However, mainly due to increased mining costs, operating profit was 2,986 million yen, a decrease of 162 million yen (5.2 %) year on year.

      3. Cement-Related Products

        Net sales decreased by 571 million yen (2.4 %) year on year to 23,020 million yen, mainly due to lower sales volume of concrete structure repair and reinforcement materials as well as heavy metal pollution control materials. Operating profit was 1,480 million yen, a decrease of 358 million yen (19.5 %) year on year.

      4. Optoelectronics

        Net sales grew 222 million yen (8.9 %) year on year to 2,732 million yen, mainly due to an increase in the sales volume of optical measurement equipment. Although it was improved by 298 million yen from the previous fiscal year due to cost reductions in optical communication parts and other factors, operating loss of 56 million yen was recorded.

      5. Advanced Materials

        Net sales grew by 2,396 million yen (15.3 %) year on year to 18,074 million yen, mainly due to changes in the product mix of electronic materials for semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Operating profit grew by 214 million yen (9.5 %) year on year to 2,479 million yen.

      6. Other

      Net sales decreased by 323 million yen (8.3%) year on year to 3,553 million yen due to decreased software sales, and operating profit decreased by 223 million yen (13.8%) year on year to 1,393 million yen.

    2. ‌Overview of Consolidated Financial Status

      Total assets at the end of the current fiscal year were 361,980 million yen, up 8,950 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to increases in property, plant and equipment and investment securities.

      Total liabilities at the end of the current fiscal year amounted to 164,031 million yen, up 4,662 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to increases in bonds payable (including current portion of bonds payable ) and income taxes payable, despite a decrease in commercial papers.

      Net assets at the end of the current fiscal year totaled 197,948 million yen, up 4,288 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to increases in retained earnings and valuation difference on available-for-sale securities.

      Cash and cash equivalents (hereinafter referred to as "funds") for the current fiscal year increased 34,539 million yen from operating activities, but decreased 28,566 million yen from investing activities and 5,954 million yen from financing activities, making for an increase of 77 million yen from the end of the previous fiscal year. As a result, the balance of funds at the end of the current fiscal year was 16,588 million yen (up 0.5% year on year).

      (Operating Cash Flow)

      Funds provided by operating activities were 34,539 million yen (38.8% increase in income compared with the previous fiscal year). This was mainly due to profit before income taxes of 16,041 million yen and depreciation of 23,591 million yen.

      (Investment Cash Flow)

      Funds used in investing activities were 28,566 million yen (30.9% increase in spending compared with the previous fiscal year). This was mainly due to an expenditure of 32,661 million yen for the acquisition of non-current assets, despite proceeds of 6,379 million yen from sales of investment securities.

      (Financial Cash Flow)

      Funds used in financing activities were 5,954 million yen (11.5% increase in spending compared to the previous fiscal year). This was mainly due to an expenditure of 31,000 million yen for redemption of commercial paper, despite income of 28,000 million yen from issuing commercial paper.

    3. ‌Outlook for Next Fiscal Year

      While the Japanese economy is expected to experience a moderate recovery, supported by improvements in employment and income conditions as well as the effects of economic measures, the outlook remains uncertain due to downside risks such as situations in the Middle East and the impact of the U.S. trade policies.

      In the cement industry, public-sector demand is expected to stay at the same level as the previous fiscal year, due to demands for recovery from the Noto Peninsula Earthquake and other factors. Meanwhile private-sector demand is forecasted to decline due to a labor shortage, higher construction costs, and other factors. As a whole, domestic demand for cement is expected to decline.

      The full-year earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027 (FY2026) is for net sales of 234,500 million yen (up 4.8% year on year), ordinary profit of 14,500 million yen (up 0.7% year on year), and profit attributable to owners of the parent of 10,000 million yen (down 10.8 % year on year).

    4. ‌Basic Policy on Profit Distribution and Dividends for Current and Next Fiscal Years

      The Company recognizes profit distribution to shareholders as an important matter that is basically determined in accordance with earnings.

      In order to secure this profit in the future, as an organization in the cement manufacturing industry, which is an equipment industry, it is necessary to invest in constant equipment improvement and renewal, and we believe that it is essential to expand internal reserves for this purpose.

      Based on the above perspectives, we will determine stable and continuous dividends based on a comprehensive assessment of the business environment, future prospects, and distributions for the previous fiscal year.

      For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, we paid an interim dividend of 60.00 yen per share. We plan to propose a year-end dividend of 60.00 yen per share to the General Meeting of Shareholders.

      In addition, in the medium-term management plan starting in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027 (fiscal 2026), we intend to maintain profitability of existing businesses, expand growth fields, and implement shareholder returns based on capital efficiency. During the 2026-28 medium-term management plan period, we will also continue to maintain an average total return ratio of 50% or more over these three years. We will set the minimum annual dividend per share at 120 yen.

      Dividends for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027, as described in the summary information "2. Dividend Status," we expect an interim dividend of 60.00 yen per share and a year-end dividend of 60.00 yen per share.

  2. ‌Basic Approach to Selecting Accounting Standards

    The Group's policy is to prepare consolidated financial statements under Japanese standards for the time being, taking into account the comparability of consolidated financial statements between periods and between companies. Regarding the application of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) we plan to respond appropriately in consideration of future domestic and international situations.
