Guidance Update Report

NIHON NOHYAKU CO., LTD. <4997> [TSE Prime] announced a revision to its performance and dividend after the market closed on March 25th (16:00). The consolidated ordinary profit for the fiscal year ending March 2025 has been revised upward 3.0%, from the previous forecast of 6.7 billion yen to 6.9 billion yen (compared to 5.93 billion yen in the previous period), increasing the growth rate from 12.9% to 16.3%. However, the full-year consolidated net income has decreased 58.3%, from the previous forecast of 4.8 billion yen to 2 billion yen (compared to 4.77 billion yen in the previous period). This changes the outlook from an anticipated profit increase to a projection of a 58.1% decrease in profit.

Based on the upwardly revised full-year plan announced by the company, our calculation indicates that the October to March period (2H) consolidated ordinary profit is expected to increase 3.2%, from the previous forecast of 6.18 billion yen to 6.38 billion yen (compared to 4.98 billion yen in the same period of the previous year), increasing the growth rate from 24.1% to 28.1%.

In light of the strong performance, the company has increased its planned annual dividend for the current fiscal year from the original plan of 20 yen to 22 yen (compared to 18 yen in the previous period).
