Notice of Differences from the Second Quarter (Interim) Earnings Guidance and Upward Revision of Full-Year Earnings Guidance

Overview of Forecast Revision

This document compares the actual figures for the second quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2027 with the full-year forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2027 and announces an upward revision to the full-year forecast. Although net sales remain unchanged from the previous forecast at 150,000 hundred million yen, operating income, ordinary income, and net income attributable to owners of parent have each been revised upward. During the interim period, in response to rising raw material costs due to the situation in the Middle East, price adjustments and shipment controls to prevent stockouts were implemented, resulting in sales exceeding expectations and increased profits. While future conditions remain uncertain, the forecast has been raised based on recent trends.

Shareholder Returns and Outlook

The year-end dividend forecast is currently maintained at 19 yen. The company will make determinations based on future earnings progress, and the dividend payout ratio and dividend amount may be revised depending on future conditions. Attention should be paid to short-term demand trends caused by shipment adjustments and the impact of raw material costs.
