An announcement from Mitsui DM Sugar Holdings Co.Ltd ( (JP:2109) ) is now available.

Mitsui DM Sugar Holdings reported fiscal year 2026 consolidated net sales of ¥180.1 billion, up 0.7% year on year, but operating income fell 6.7% to ¥12.9 billion and profit attributable to owners of parent dropped 37.1% to ¥4.0 billion, weighed by weaker ordinary income and lower equity-method contributions. Despite the profit decline and a sharp fall in operating cash flow, the company kept its annual dividend flat at ¥130 per share, implying a payout ratio above 100%, and is guiding for modest sales and profit growth in fiscal 2027 with profit nearly doubling, while also reflecting structural changes after excluding three entities from consolidation and completing the merger with its main operating subsidiary.
