Ifuji Sangyo Co., Ltd. Financial Summary for the Second Quarter (Interim) of the Fiscal Year Ending March 2027

Overview of Results

Consolidated net sales for the interim period were 15,408 hundred million yen, a 3.9% decrease year-over-year. Operating income was 1,161 million yen, ordinary income was 1,165 million yen, and net income attributable to owners of parent for the interim period was 794 million yen, all below the results for the same period last year. EBITDA was 1,583 million yen (down 13.1% year-over-year). Although impacted by increases in raw material and logistics costs and capital investment, the company has worked to maintain profitability by implementing price pass-through, mainly in the liquid egg business. The full-year forecast anticipates net sales of 33,376 hundred million yen, operating income of 2,913 million yen, and net income of 2,024 million yen, targeting a slight increase versus the prior year.

Segment Conditions and Outlook

In the liquid egg segment, sales were below the previous year, but securing inventory and progress in price pass-through emphasize the importance of stable supply. Segment profits declined due to increases in raw material, labor and energy costs, but efforts continue to recover shipment volumes and acquire new customers. The seasonings and organic e-commerce businesses are pursuing steady sales expansion and gross margin improvement despite demand fluctuations and cost increases.
