Obayashi Corporation, a leading player in the construction industry, is renowned for its comprehensive services in building and civil engineering projects both domestically in Japan and internationally. The company recently reported its financial results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025, showcasing a strong performance across various segments.
Obayashi Corporation’s consolidated net sales rose by 12.7% to 2,620.1 billion yen, driven by significant progress in large-scale domestic construction projects and the consolidation of MWH in its overseas civil engineering business. The company also saw a substantial increase in operating income, which surged by 80.7% to 143.4 billion yen, and ordinary income, which grew by 67.6% to 153.3 billion yen. Additionally, the profit attributable to owners of the parent nearly doubled, reaching 146.0 billion yen, primarily due to the sale of cross-shareholdings.
The construction business was a major contributor to this growth, with consolidated orders received increasing by 36.0% to 3,202.2 billion yen. This was largely due to an uptick in large-scale projects in the domestic market and the integration of MWH in the overseas sector. The real estate segment also performed well, with net sales increasing by 9.0% to 72.9 billion yen, although operating income in this segment saw a slight decline.
Looking ahead, Obayashi Corporation projects a decrease in net sales and profit for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. The company anticipates net sales of 2,560.0 billion yen and a profit attributable to owners of the parent of 100.0 billion yen, reflecting a cautious outlook amid potential economic fluctuations and market challenges. Despite these projections, the company remains committed to strategic investments and enhancing shareholder value through dividends and share buybacks.
