In the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2026, Sumitomo Chemical announced that due to fluctuations in the foreign exchange market, it revalued its foreign currency assets and liabilities, and recorded a financial income (foreign exchange gain) of 12,870 million yen. This foreign exchange gain mainly resulted from exchange rate fluctuations and is reflected in the consolidated financial summary.

Outlook and Impact
