An announcement from Hanwa Co., Ltd. ( (JP:8078) ) is now available.
Hanwa reported consolidated net sales of ¥2,662.7 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, up 4.2% year on year, while operating profit fell 5.0% to ¥58.4 billion and ordinary profit dropped 12.5% to ¥52.3 billion. Profit attributable to owners declined 15.9% to ¥38.3 billion, with margins pressured and equity‑method earnings turning to a loss, though comprehensive income rose sharply and the equity ratio improved to 35.3% as total assets reached ¥1,212.7 billion.
Operating cash flow strengthened to ¥74.3 billion, supporting higher shareholder returns as Hanwa lifted total annual dividends to ¥290 per share for FY2025 and plans a post–stock split dividend of ¥66 per share for FY2026. The company also completed a five‑for‑one stock split on April 1, 2026, and expanded its consolidation scope by adding four subsidiaries, while forecasting FY2027 net sales of ¥3,000 billion and modest profit growth, positioning itself for continued scale expansion despite recent profitability headwinds.
