Sodick will celebrate its 50th anniversary in August 2026 and has approved a special commemorative dividend to thank shareholders and other stakeholders for their longstanding support. The board has resolved to add a ¥6 per share commemorative component to the interim dividend for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, highlighting the company’s focus on shareholder returns.
For fiscal 2026, Sodick forecasts an interim dividend of ¥20 per share, including the ¥6 commemorative portion, and a year-end dividend of ¥15, for a total annual payout of ¥35 per share. The company has also committed to a progressive dividend policy under which it will not cut dividends and aims to maintain or increase an annual dividend level of at least ¥35 per share from fiscal 2027 onward, signaling confidence in its earnings outlook and reinforcing its attractiveness to income-focused investors.

Sodick has adopted a new four-year, commitment-based medium-term management plan covering fiscal years 2026 to 2029, shifting from its previous rolling three-year framework to better track progress, sharpen strategy execution, and strengthen communication with stakeholders. Under the plan, the company is targeting net sales of ¥100 billion and operating profit of ¥10 billion by fiscal 2029, alongside financial goals including a price-to-book ratio of at least 1.0 times, return on equity of 8% or higher, and earnings per share of at least ¥130.
In tandem with the new plan, Sodick has significantly revised its shareholder return policy to emphasize long-term distribution and capital efficiency, replacing its former DOE-focused approach with a progressive dividend framework. From fiscal 2026, it plans a total dividend of ¥35 per share including a commemorative element, will use ¥35 as a baseline from fiscal 2027 with dividends not falling below that level, and aims to maintain a total shareholder return ratio of at least 40% annually while targeting 70% or more over the four-year period through 2029 via dividends and share buybacks.

Sodick reported detailed supplemental financial data for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, showing year-on-year declines in net sales and gross profit in several quarters, compressing margins and leading to operating and net losses despite continued sales volumes. Rising selling, general and administrative expenses weighed on profitability, with operating margins turning negative for much of the year, indicating cost pressures and softer demand that could challenge the company’s near-term earnings profile and operational flexibility.
Comparative figures for fiscal 2023 and 2024 highlight that the latest year marks a reversal from prior periods of revenue growth and improving gross margins, when Sodick had restored positive operating and ordinary profits. The shift back into losses in 2025 underscores a deterioration in business conditions versus the recovery trend seen in 2023–24, potentially affecting investor sentiment and signaling that management may need to adjust its cost structure or strategic focus to restore sustainable profitability.

Sodick reported consolidated results for the year ended December 31, 2025 that modestly exceeded its earlier sales forecast while substantially outperforming profit projections. Net sales reached ¥80.6 billion versus guidance of ¥77.4 billion, and profit attributable to owners of the parent surged to ¥4.5 billion, lifting earnings per share to ¥89.19 and marking an improvement on the prior year.
The upside in ordinary profit and bottom-line results was driven mainly by foreign exchange gains and gains on sales of investment securities tied to the disposal of policy shareholdings. While operating profit came in slightly below plan, the strong non-operating income boosted overall profitability, potentially strengthening Sodick’s financial position and signaling improved returns for shareholders compared with its earlier outlook.

Sodick reported consolidated net sales of ¥80.6 billion for the year to December 2025, up 9.4% year on year, with operating profit nearly doubling to ¥4.2 billion and profit attributable to owners of parent rising 9.7% to ¥4.5 billion. The company strengthened its financial position with higher net assets and cash balances, maintained an annual dividend of ¥29 per share, and incorporated two new subsidiaries in Italy and Mexico, while also adopting revised accounting standards.
For 2026, Sodick forecasts further growth to ¥88.5 billion in net sales and a 30.2% increase in operating profit, alongside a planned higher total dividend of ¥35 per share including a 50th anniversary commemorative payout. The expansion of its consolidated group and rising profitability signal a proactive growth strategy and could reinforce its market position in precision manufacturing equipment, with improved returns for shareholders through both earnings and dividends.
