ISE CHEMICALS CORPORATION [4107.T]
TOKYO, May 01 (Pulse News Wire) – Ise Chemicals Corporation (4107.T) reported its first quarter results for the fiscal year ending December 2026. Revenue reached ¥88.1 billion, up ¥5.7 billion from the same period last year.
However, operating profit declined by ¥40.07 billion to ¥1.959 billion due to increased depreciation expenses associated with aggressive equipment investments. Ordinary profit also decreased by ¥200 million to ¥1.908 billion, while net profit attributable to parent shareholders fell by ¥300 million to ¥13.2 billion. The company's iodine and natural gas division saw revenue growth driven by strong international demand for iodine, but metal compound sales dropped due to lower prices despite higher volumes sold.
Total assets stood at ¥48.92 billion, down ¥2 million compared to the previous year-end, mainly due to reduced accounts receivable and cash reserves. Liabilities decreased by ¥2.44 billion to ¥8.235 billion, primarily because of lower trade payables and deferred tax payments. For the full fiscal year ending December 2026, the company maintains its forecast of ¥38.00 billion in revenue, ¥8 billion in operating income, ¥1 billion in ordinary income, and ¥1.362 billion in net income per share.
The outlook remains unchanged since the February 5, 2026, release, though potential changes could occur based on evolving conditions.
