For the full fiscal year, the company lifted revenue guidance by JPY 20.0bn to JPY 706.0bn, while operating profit rose JPY 1.40bn to JPY 13.5bn. Net profit attributable to parent shareholders increased JPY 500M to JPY 9.50bn. The upward revision reflects stronger-than-expected first-quarter performance, particularly in aluminum sheet demand for automotive applications and thick aluminum plate for semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Decarbonization-related equipment and maintenance services also showed strong growth. A weaker yen than initially assumed provided additional tailwinds to export-oriented operations.

The company raised its annual dividend by JPY 8.00/share to JPY 138.00/share, incorporating a JPY 26.00/share commemorative special dividend marking the company’s 80th anniversary. The increase aligns with management’s dividend policy targeting a consolidated payout ratio of 30% or higher, or earnings per share of at least JPY 100.00, whichever is greater. The revision signals management confidence in sustained operational momentum and underscores commitment to shareholder returns amid improving business conditions.
