Results at a glance

  • Revenue for the FY ending Mar 2026 was ¥402.9B, up +3.6% from ¥388.8B.
  • Operating income grew faster, up +16.8% to ¥58.3B.
  • Net income attributable to owners fell -21.4% to ¥16B, mainly because of impairment losses on a US precision cleaning subsidiary that the company decided to sell.
  • Operating cash flow dropped -36.7% to ¥55.6B, and free cash flow fell -23.8% to ¥26B.

What drove the change

  • In General Industry, growth in the higher-value CSV business improved the cost ratio, and last year's goodwill write-down on a US subsidiary did not recur
  • In Electronics Industry, maintenance was strong in Japan and Korea, offsetting the drop after large equipment projects in China the year before
  • Pentagon Technologies Group, which is being sold, was moved to discontinued operations, and larger impairment losses there, including goodwill, pulled down net income

Things to watch

  • Demand in both segments moves with customers' plant utilization and capital spending
  • Large water treatment equipment projects can turn unprofitable because of design or construction problems
  • Goodwill from past acquisitions could be written down if those businesses earn less than expected
