Executive summary

  • Net sales for the first half of FY2026/3 rose 0.8% year-over-year to ¥589.2 billion, driven by growth in Daily-Life Products, despite declines in paper and paperboard sales.

  • Operating income surged to ¥9.0 billion from ¥2.1 billion, reflecting recovery at Opal and Japan Dynawave Packaging after prior maintenance disruptions.

  • Net income turned positive at ¥0.8 billion, a significant improvement from a ¥12.4 billion loss in the prior year.

  • Comprehensive income turned negative at ¥(10,411) million, down from ¥10,550 million last year.

  • Extraordinary losses included boiler repairs at Yatsushiro Mill and labor dispute-related suspensions at Opal.

Financial highlights

  • Daily-Life Products segment net sales increased by ¥14.5 billion year-over-year, with operating income up ¥11.5 billion, mainly from overseas recovery.

  • Paper and Paperboard segment saw net sales drop ¥8.9 billion and operating income fall by ¥5.0 billion due to lower export volumes and higher costs.

  • Energy business revenue declined by ¥2.0 billion, but operating profit remained flat.

  • Wood Products and Construction Related segment posted higher revenue and profit, supported by domestic biomass fuel demand.

  • Total assets stood at ¥1,682.3 billion as of September 30, 2025; net interest-bearing debt increased by ¥15.9 billion.

Outlook and guidance

  • Full-year FY2026/3 net sales forecast revised to ¥1,200.0 billion, up 1.5% year-over-year but down ¥5.0 billion from initial guidance.

  • Operating income forecast lowered to ¥30.0 billion (from ¥34.0 billion), and net income to ¥10.0 billion (from ¥12.0 billion), reflecting weaker packaging demand in Australia and export markets.

  • Dividend forecast maintained at ¥10.00 per share for the fiscal year.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
