Notably, impairment losses recorded in the Isoprene segment affected net income, which stood at 7.5 billion yen (Year-over-Year \u25b324.3 billion yen). By segment, net sales and operating income declined in Vinyl Acetate, Isoprene, and Functional Materials, while Textile and Trading segments posted profit increases.\n\n### Outlook for FY2026 and Progress on Mid-term Management Plan\nFor FY2026, net sales are projected at 850 billion yen, operating income at 70 billion yen, and net income attributable to owners of parent at 40 billion yen. Capital expenditures are planned at 75 billion yen (based on decisions), with research and development expenses budgeted at 27 billion yen. Under the mid-term management plan 'PASSION 2026,' efforts are underway to optimize production capacity and enhance the business portfolio, including downsizing and withdrawal from non-core businesses. Sustainability initiatives and acquisitions\/co-creation in regenerative medicine are also progressing. Dividends are planned at 54 yen for FY2025 and 64 yen for FY2026 (including a 5 yen commemorative dividend), with a share buyback of 10 billion yen scheduled.","jir_financial_highlights":"Net Sales: 808.4 billion yen (Year-over-Year \u25b318.4 billion yen)\nOperating Income: 58.9 billion yen (Year-over-Year \u25b326.2 billion yen)\nOrdinary Income: 51.5 billion yen (Year-over-Year \u25b330.0 billion yen)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 7.5 billion yen (Year-over-Year \u25b324.3 billion yen)\nFY2026 Net Sales Forecast: 850 billion yen (Year-over-Year +41.6 billion yen)\nFY2026 Operating Income Forecast: 70 billion yen (Year-over-Year +11.1 billion yen)\nFY2026 Net Income Attributable to Owners of Parent Forecast: 40 billion yen (Year-over-Year +32.5 billion yen)\nROIC: 5.1% (Year-over-Year \u25b32.2 points)\nEBITDA: 143.6 billion yen (Year-over-Year \u25b326.7 billion yen)\nROE: 1.0% (Year-over-Year \u25b33.3 points)\nDividend (Planned for FY2025): 54 yen (Unknown)\nDividend (Planned for FY2026): 64 yen (Unknown)\nShare Buyback (Planned for FY2026): 10 billion yen (Unknown)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#KurarayCoLtd, #EarningsBriefing, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"FY2025 Net Sales: 808.4 billion yen (Year-over-Year \u25b318.4 billion yen)\nFY2025 Operating Income: 58.9 billion yen (Year-over-Year \u25b326.2 billion yen)\nFY2025 Net Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 7.5 billion yen (Year-over-Year \u25b324.3 billion yen)","jir_meta_title":"Kuraray Co., Ltd.
