Message from the President
To Our Shareholders
Thank you for your continued support of the KONOIKE Group.
FY3/2026 Results
Net sales for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, increased 3.1% year on year to 355.555 billion yen. The consolidation of subsidiaries in India and Canada and higher volumes resulting from the recovery of international passenger flights at airports more than offset lower revenue from the suspension of certain production lines at customer sites and reduced air cargo volumes.
Operating income increased 6.5% year on year to 22.785 billion yen, ordinary income rose 6.1% to 22.585 billion yen, and profit attributable to owners of parent increased 1.5% to 14.268 billion yen. These results reflect progress in the key business strategies of our Medium-Term Business Plan 2027, namely expanding overseas operations and accelerating growth of our businesses in Japan.
Medium-Term Business Plan 2027
Medium-Term Business Plan 2027 is grounded in the fundamental policy of maximizing employee well-being and corporate value through growth investments and investments in people, technology, and ICT. Under this plan, which began in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, we target net sales of 410 billion yen, operating income of 26 billion yen, an operating income margin of 6.3%, and ROE of 10% or higher. We also target operating income of 3.3 billion yen from our overseas businesses.
We remain firmly committed to achieving the goals of the Medium-Term Business Plan 2027, despite continued uncertainty surrounding higher U.S. import tariffs, deteriorating Japan-China relations, and heightened tensions in the Middle East. Our efforts include growth investments in India, one of our key focus markets, investments in people through improved compensation and employee development, and initiatives to strengthen technological innovation and ICT capabilities.
Shareholder Returns
As announced, we paid a year-end dividend of 55.00 yen per share, bringing the annual dividend to 110.00 yen per share. We remain committed to delivering continuous, stable dividends and maintaining a dividend payout ratio of 40% or higher under Medium-Term Business Plan 2027.
I ask for your continued support as we move forward.
