OSAKA GAS CO.,LTD. [9532.T]
TOKYO, Feb 02 (Pulse News Wire) – Osaka GAS CO.,LTD. (9532.T) reported a robust third-quarter performance, driven by strong overseas energy operations and domestic growth initiatives.
Operating profit surged due to favorable conditions in its U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) facilities and upstream activities, alongside expansion in key domestic markets. The company's net income increased significantly, partly attributed to special gains from related company sales.
However, Osaka Gas revised its outlook for the fiscal year ending March 2026, adjusting assumptions for crude oil prices and exchange rates post-January 2026. Despite maintaining revenue forecasts, the firm anticipates lower earnings due to rising fixed costs in power generation. Looking ahead, Osaka Gas plans to continue investing in strategic projects while ensuring financial stability.
The company targets a capital ratio exceeding 50% and a debt-to-equity ratio below 0.8, aiming to sustain long-term value creation through balanced investment and operational efficiency.
