Hodogaya Chemical Launches “CODE/CHORD 2030” After Missing Previous Profit Targets

Hodogaya Chemical Co., Ltd. ( (JP:4112) ) has issued an update.

Hodogaya Chemical has unveiled a new five-year medium-term management plan, “CODE/CHORD 2030,” after falling short of all key targets in its previous plan, particularly due to weaker-than-expected monetization in its OLED materials business. The new strategy is framed around a three-year transformation phase followed by a two-year harvest, aiming to realign the business structure and restore earnings momentum.

Under the plan, the company targets lifting net sales from 48 billion yen in the year ended March 2026 to 65 billion yen by FY2029 and 80 billion yen by FY2031, with operating profit projected to rise to 10 billion yen and margins to 12.5%. Management is prioritizing bold structural reforms, portfolio shifts, resource reallocation, and potential M&A to secure discontinuous growth, while committing to a progressive dividend policy and higher DOE, signaling a stronger focus on shareholder returns despite a planned reduction in equity ratio.
