SUMCO, The Current Fiscal Year's Undisclosed Ordinary Profit Turns to Loss, The Undecided Dividend Reduced by 1 Yen
3436 SUMCO CORPORATION 【J-GAAP】
Earnings ReportSUMCO CORPORATION <3436> [TSE Prime] announced its financial results after the market closed on November 11th (15:30). The consolidated ordinary profit for the cumulative third quarter of the fiscal year ending December 2025 (January to September) significantly dropped 91.6% from the same period last year to 2.17 billion yen.
In addition, the full-year forecast, which was not disclosed, shows that consolidated ordinary profit/loss will turn into a deficit of loss of 10.9 billion yen (compared to a profit of 37.4 billion yen in the previous period).
Based on the cumulative third-quarter performance announced by the company and the full-year plan, our calculation indicates that the consolidated ordinary profit/loss for the October to December period (4Q) is expected to turn into a loss of 13.0 billion yen (compared to a profit of 11.4 billion yen in the same period last year).
Due to a decline in performance, the company has decided to implement a annual dividend of 20 yen for the current fiscal year, which was previously undecided (compared to 21 yen in the prior term).
In the most recent three-month period, from July to September (3Q), the consolidated ordinary profit/loss turned to a loss of 2.54 billion yen (compared to a profit of 5.56 billion yen in the same period last year). The operating profit/loss margin drastically worsened from 9.3% in the same period last year to -1.6%.
