Financial Presentation for Q3 FY2026 (FY ending December 2026)

Performance Overview

For Q3 of FY2026 ending December, consolidated net sales were 11,710 million yen (Year-over-Year +7.3%), consolidated operating income was 887 million yen (Year-over-Year +17.1%), and EBITDA was 1,628 million yen (Year-over-Year +10.0%), maintaining a profit-increasing trend. Resource-circulating packaging-related businesses performed strongly, with sales rising 20.7% year-over-year, showing a double-digit increase. Sales expanded in both the Japanese and overseas markets, and improvements in profit margins drove overall results. Conversely, China recorded a loss due to factors such as rising raw material costs, while improved margins in Japan and India contributed positively to profits.

Segment Trends and Future Focus

By region, sales moved across Japan, Other Asia, China, and Europe & Americas. In addition to increased sales in Japan and overseas, a robust cosmetics market increased the number of transactions with specific customers, expanding orders for cosmetics and driving sales growth. Continued cost reduction and automation investments have reduced costs and improved gross margin. Given raw material cost surges in China, stabilizing the supply chain and cost management are expected to be key going forward.
