Riso Kagaku Corporation ( (JP:6413) ) has provided an update.

Riso Kagaku reported consolidated net sales of ¥78,990 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, a slight 0.3% increase year on year, while operating profit fell 17.3% to ¥5,111 million and ordinary profit declined 7.7% to ¥5,872 million. Profit attributable to owners of parent, however, rose 7.1% to ¥4,378 million, with basic earnings per share improving to ¥68.71 and cash flows from operating activities more than doubling to ¥7,513 million.

The company maintained a stable annual dividend of ¥50 per share, resulting in a payout ratio of 72.8%, and projects modest topline growth but softer profitability for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027, with net sales forecast at ¥80,900 million and profit attributable to owners of parent expected to decline 6.4% to ¥4,100 million. These results and forecasts suggest resilient revenue and shareholder returns, but also signal margin pressure and a cautious earnings outlook, which may weigh on profitability even as the balance sheet remains solid with an equity-to-asset ratio above 70%.
