AI Summary 2026-06-23 10:25

FY2025 revenue ¥102.67B (+0.4%) with continued operating loss of ¥37M (improved from ¥68M loss). New mid-term plan 'REBUILD & CREATE VALUE 2028' focuses on structural MDF expansion, PANECO® board M mass production, and overseas factory partnerships. Housing market remains weak but environmental product demand and Building Standards Law revision present opportunities.

KEY POINTS
  • Modest revenue growth (+0.4%) offset by inflation in materials/labor; operating loss persists at ¥37M
  • FY2026 revenue guidance +11.0%, with medium-term target of ¥33B operating profit by FY2028
  • Growth pillars: structural MDF, eco-conscious PANECO® board M, and overseas OEM production partnerships

🔮 Outlook

📈 Growth outlook 📈 Growth 5/10
FY2026 revenue guidance of +11.0% suggests moderate recovery. Structural MDF demand from Building Standards Law revision, PANECO® board M mass production for new markets, and overseas OEM partnerships drive growth. However, persistent housing market weakness remains a headwind.
Growth drivers
  • Building Standards Law revision (April 2025) raising structural MDF wall strength ratio cap from 5x to 7x
  • PANECO® board M (recycled building material from discarded textiles) mass production and new market entry
  • Overseas MDF factory partnerships shifting to OEM production for cost improvement
  • Energy efficiency equipment subsidies and rising demand for eco-conscious products
