Results at a glance

  • Revenue for the FY ending Mar 2026 was ¥908.5B, up +2.9% from ¥883B.
  • Operating income dropped -17.1% from ¥46.2B to ¥38.3B, as gross profit barely moved (+0.7%) and did not keep up with higher SG&A.
  • Net income attributable to owners still rose +17.8% to ¥47.7B, lifted by gains from selling fixed assets.
  • Operating cash flow grew +12.8% to ¥59.1B, and free cash flow swung from negative to a positive ¥13.3B.

What drove the change

  • Lower LP gas import prices meant inventory bought at higher cost was sold at lower prices, cutting profit in the Energy segment.
  • A softer helium market reduced margins in industrial gases.
  • Higher sales of hydrogen and hydrogen equipment, plus rare earths and stainless steel in Materials, pushed revenue up.
  • Gains on the sale of fixed assets boosted the bottom line.

Things to watch

  • When LP gas import prices fall, the time lag between buying and selling squeezes profit.
  • LP gas sells mostly in winter, so profit is weighted to the second half of the year and depends on the weather.
  • As LP gas is a fossil fuel, new climate rules could affect results.
