On the other hand, cost increases and accounting for foreign exchange losses led to a slight decline in ordinary income. The effects of selling, general and administrative expense reductions continued, and overall profitability showed signs of improvement. Segment-wise, filtration aids were affected by domestic demand decline, while building materials, fillers, resinous products, and others remained solid due to improved supply-demand conditions and the promotion of new businesses.\n\n### Outlook and financial position\nThe consolidated earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending March 2027 has already been revised and announced. Total assets increased, and the equity ratio was maintained at 64.0%. The decrease in cash and deposits and increase in securities held for investment were the main factors. Liabilities, including increases in trade payable and accounts payable, are on an upward trend. In the long term, the policy is to continue capital expenditure and the promotion of new businesses toward sustainable growth.","jir_financial_highlights":"Net sales: 2,537\u767e\u4e07\u5186 (YoY +1.6%)\nOperating income: 160\u767e\u4e07\u5186 (YoY +8.7%)\nOrdinary income: 235\u767e\u4e07\u5186 (YoY \u25b31.5%)\nNet income attributable to owners of the parent: 149\u767e\u4e07\u5186 (YoY \u25b310.5%)\nEquity ratio: 64.0% (End of previous year 64.4% \u2192 64.0%)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#ShowaChemicalIndustry, #FinancialResults, #QuarterlyResults","jir_key_figures":"Net sales: 2,537\u767e\u4e07\u5186\uff08YoY +1.6%\uff09\nOrdinary income: 235\u767e\u4e07\u5186\uff08YoY \u25b31.5%\uff09\nNet income attributable to owners of the parent: 149\u767e\u4e07\u5186\uff08YoY \u25b310.5%\uff09","jir_meta_title":"\u3010Showa Chemical Industry\u30111Q Financial Summary\uff5cNet Sales 2,537 million yen \/ Net Income 149 million yen","jir_meta_description":"Summary of Showa Chemical Industry's 1Q FY2027 results.
