Performance Overview

The rise in sales and profits was driven by soaring copper prices and a weak yen, leading to improved profit margins and healthy cash flow. Although sales volumes declined in some segments, higher copper prices helped to maintain revenue. Both the non-ferrous metals segment and the arts and crafts segment showed increased revenue.

Regarding dividends, a dividend of ¥10 per share along with a commemorative dividend was paid at the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, with an expected ¥10 per share dividend at the fiscal year-end. The company emphasizes shareholder return while promoting profit accumulation and financial soundness.
