Financial Results for the Fiscal Year Ending March 2026 | Sales of 479.6 billion yen (+33.4 billion yen YoY)

Overview of Results

Soken Chemical & Engineering projects consolidated sales of 479.6 billion yen (up 33.4 billion yen YoY) for the fiscal year ending March 2026, expecting an increase in revenue. Meanwhile, operating income and net income are forecasted at 617.1 billion yen and 601.7 billion yen respectively, reflecting decreases compared to the previous year due to declining raw material prices and rising costs such as labor and expenses. Although the decline in raw material costs in the Chinese market pressures profit margins, overall revenue growth is expected to lead to an increase in total sales.

Future Outlook and Challenges

Profits face risks from rising costs and fluctuations in raw material prices, with the key challenges being optimizing the cost structure and stabilizing raw material procurement. By expanding sales primarily in the Asian markets, centered on China, along with thorough cost management and new business development, the company aims to improve profitability. In the medium to long term, strategies will focus on responding to raw material price fluctuations with dynamic pricing and implementing cost reduction measures to achieve sustainable growth.
