Dividend forecast also revised upward to an annual dividend of 208 yen.","jir_summary":"### Details of Revision of Consolidated Earnings Guidance\nThe consolidated earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending March 2026 has been revised. Net sales are expected to decline due to weak demand for polyurethane resins for transportation equipment in Japan and the U.S., and compounds and colorants in China, as well as the impact of yen appreciation. Although depreciation expenses from capital investments and labor costs will increase, operating income is projected to grow due to the expansion of high value-added products and price adjustments following raw material cost increases. Net income is also expected to increase due to the recording of capital gains from the sale of policy-held shares.\n\n### Revision of Dividend Forecast and Shareholder Return Policy\nThe dividend forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026 has been revised upward. The ordinary year-end dividend has been raised by 34 yen from the previous forecast to 106 yen, and combined with a special dividend of 15 yen, the total annual dividend is expected to be 208 yen. Based on the medium-term management plan \u201cTransformation for Tomorrow 2027,\u201d the Company targets a payout ratio of over 40%, a total return ratio of over 50%, and a minimum annual dividend per share of 100 yen, while planning to actively conduct share buybacks.
