TOKYO, May 14 (Pulse News Wire) – Fujisash CO.,LTD. (5940.T) reported a revenue decline of 37.2 billion yen compared to the previous year, despite implementing measures to improve profitability.
However, operating profit increased by 2.9 billion yen due to price improvements and high-value-added activities. The company's efforts to enhance value engineering and cost-down proposals contributed significantly to the improved operating margin, which rose to 8.3%. Despite challenges such as reduced volumes and delayed construction schedules, Fujisash managed to maintain its profitability through strategic initiatives. The board plans to achieve dividend levels ahead of schedule, aiming for ¥30 per share in fiscal year 2025, two years earlier than initially planned.
In the segments, while general materials faced a reduction in volume leading to decreased revenues and profits, the environment division saw growth driven by new plant installations and maintenance work. Logistics also experienced a slight decrease in profit due to rising costs, although overall sales increased. The company continues to focus on improving capital efficiency and strengthening its financial foundation, maintaining a robust ROE of over 30%. Fujisash expects a challenging 2026 fiscal year with potential raw material price hikes and energy cost increases impacting performance.
Nevertheless, the firm remains committed to advancing its mid-term plan goals and enhancing its long-term growth base through continued investment in productivity and technology infrastructure.
