Revision of Earnings Forecast and Background

At the board of directors meeting held today, we revised the full-year consolidated earnings forecast based on results through the second quarter of fiscal 2026 and outlook from the third quarter onward. Functional chemicals are expected to show firm demand with limited variability, while pharmaceuticals/medical/health and chemical products are shipping launched products as planned but are affected by delays in shipments of developmental products. Food-related businesses are expected to be impacted by rising raw material costs and demand shifts. Overall, the company is expected to exceed the previous forecast. Foreign exchange assumptions have been revised to USD/JPY 158 and EUR/JPY 182.

Dividend Policy and Shareholder Returns

The interim dividend has been revised to 37 yen and the year-end dividend to 37 yen, raising the annual dividend to 74 yen. The interim dividend will be paid from retained earnings, and the company will continue to pursue enhancement of corporate value while proactively implementing share buybacks and cancellations as needed.
