DAIICHI KIGENSO KAGAKU-KOGYO CO.,LTD <4082> announced its full-year forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2027 after the market close on the 14th, following the release of its consolidated results for the year ended March 2026. The company projects sales of 37 billion yen, up 3.5% year-on-year, and operating profit of 3 billion yen, down 13.8%. The annual dividend forecast is set at 30 yen, including interim and year-end payouts of 15 yen each, compared with 28 yen in the previous year. While revenue is expected to rise on steady hybrid vehicle demand, profitability will be weighed down by higher equipment maintenance and research and development costs. For the year ended March 2026, DAIICHI KIGENSO posted sales of 35.751 billion yen, up 6.3% year-on-year, and operating profit of 3.479 billion yen, up 52.4%.
