TOKYO, May 13 (Pulse News Wire) – Toho Chemical Industry Company,limited (4409.T) reported flat revenue of ¥62 billion for the fiscal year ended March 2026 compared to the previous year. Despite a decline in construction chemicals sales, the company's operating profit surged 27% to ¥2 billion due to increased sales of micro-processing resins used in electronic information industries.
The company’s consolidated quarterly performance showed sequential improvement in operating profits across all quarters, reaching ¥621 million in the fourth quarter of FY2026. However, the overall revenue remained stable at ¥62 billion, reflecting mixed performances across various segments. Notably, the synthetic resin division saw a slight recovery in major customer sales, while the chemical additives sector experienced significant growth driven by anti-static agents.
Looking ahead, TOHO Chemical noted that the current environment in the petrochemical industry remains challenging due to supply constraints and rising raw material costs. As such, the company has refrained from providing forward guidance and is focusing on adjusting production plans based on raw material availability and pricing trends. Detailed forecasts will be disclosed once the impact on earnings becomes clearer.
