An update from SHIKOKU KASEI HOLDINGS CORPORATION ( (JP:4099) ) is now available.
Shikoku Kasei Holdings reported modest top-line growth for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, with net sales up 1.7% to ¥70.7 billion and operating profit rising 11.6% to ¥10.9 billion, while profit attributable to owners of parent slipped 4.0% to ¥8.46 billion, partly reflecting share-related factors as the average number of shares outstanding declined. Profitability indicators remained solid, with operating margin improving to 15.4%, equity-to-asset ratio strengthening to 65.0%, and cash and cash equivalents increasing to ¥35.5 billion, even as financing cash outflows expanded, likely linked to higher shareholder returns including a dividend increase to ¥55 per share and a larger treasury share balance. For 2026, the company is guiding for a strong rebound, forecasting 13.1% growth in net sales to ¥80.0 billion and a 32.5% jump in operating profit to ¥14.4 billion, with profit attributable to owners of parent projected to rise 18.2% to ¥10.0 billion and annual dividends targeted at ¥60 per share, underscoring management’s confidence in earnings momentum and balance sheet resilience despite changes in accounting policies.
