Net sales declined due to decreased shipment volumes of packaging inks and pigment materials impacted by rising raw material prices and economic uncertainty, but operating income increased thanks to improved profitability driven by steady shipments of high-value-added products and rigorous pricing policies. In particular, improved profitability in the Color & Display segment contributed significantly. Net income rose substantially, partly due to a special gain of 6.9 billion yen from art asset sales.\n\n### FY2026 Outlook and Shareholder Return Policy\nFor FY2026, net sales are projected at 1.1 trillion yen, operating income at 56.0 billion yen, and net income attributable to owners of parent at 33.0 billion yen. Growth is expected from recovering overseas demand and expanded sales of high-value-added products. The Color & Display business will continue structural reforms to restore profitability. Based on the new shareholder return policy, the ordinary dividend will be increased from 120 yen to 140 yen per share, aiming for a total return ratio of over 40%.","jir_financial_highlights":"Net Sales: 1,052.2 billion yen (Change from previous year: -18.9 billion yen)\nOperating Income: 52.2 billion yen (Change from previous year: +7.7 billion yen)\nOperating Margin: 5.0% (Change from previous year: +0.8pt)\nNet Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 32.4 billion yen (Change from previous year: +11.0 billion yen)\nAnnual Dividend per Share (Ordinary Dividend): 120 yen (Unknown)\nFY2026 Net Sales Forecast: 1,100 billion yen (Change from previous year: +47.8 billion yen)\nFY2026 Operating Income Forecast: 56.0 billion yen (Change from previous year: +3.8 billion yen)\nFY2026 Net Income Attributable to Owners of Parent Forecast: 33.0 billion yen (Change from previous year: +0.6 billion yen)\nFY2026 Annual Dividend per Share (Ordinary Dividend) Forecast: 140 yen (Unknown)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#DICCorporation, #FinancialPresentationMaterials, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"FY2025 Net Sales: 1,052.2 billion yen (down 18.9 billion yen YoY)\nFY2025 Operating Income: 52.2 billion yen (up 7.7 billion yen YoY)\nFY2025 Net Income Attributable to Owners of Parent: 32.4 billion yen (up 11.0 billion yen YoY)","jir_meta_title":"DIC Corporation Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Results: Net Sales 1.0522 Trillion Yen, Operating Income 52.2 Billion Yen, Net Income 32.4 Billion Yen","jir_meta_description":"DIC Corporation's FY2025 financial presentation materials.
