Here I will report the business results for this company’s 53rd consolidated fiscal year(from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025).
General conditions in the current consolidated fiscal year
During the fiscal year under review, the Japanese economy continued to recover gradually with signs of a pickup in consumer spending due to improved employment and income environment, as well as steady capital investment amid strong corporate performance. On the other hand, the outlook remains uncertain due to ongoing geopolitical risk, including the prolonged situation in Ukraine, as well as the impact of fluctuations in resource and energy prices, rising domestic prices, and trends of US trade policy.
Operating under these conditions, the Group has been taking various measures based on the medium term business plan, Global Vision ∞ “PART II” (FY2023-FY2026) announced in August 2023.
In regards to strengthening existing businesses, we have made systematic facility investments for the purpose of expanding R&D (research and development) and improving production in order to provide high value-added products and techniques. In regards to M&A, we have completed the process of converting two companies expected to generate synergies in the Group’s existing business into subsidiaries. In regards to expansion of global network, we actively developed initiatives to sell the Group’s products such as construction-related materials and forged automobile wheels in the global market.
Additionally, we consider investment into human capital, which is the foundation of sustainable growth, to be an important management issue, and have implemented the introduction of a new training system, human resource exchange with overseas subsidiaries, various measures based on engagement survey results, and initiatives to promote active participation by women.
Based on the factors described above, net sales for fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 were ¥64,108 million (up 14.8% year on year). In terms of profits, operating profit was ¥12,026 million (up 12.0% year on year), ordinary profit was ¥12,259 million (up 9.1% year on year), and profit attributable to owners of parent was ¥9,489 million (up 18.9% year on year).
Business Performance according to Segment
Social Infrastructure Business
In our main public works business, sales of embankment reinforcement materials and ocean civil engineering products were strong due to progress on large scale projects, and sales of riverbank
protection materials and landscape materials remained strong, resulting in increases in both sales and profit. In non-woven fabric products, sales of spunbond (continuous, long fiber non-woven fabric) for industrial and automotive materials were sluggish, but orders for medical and health materials were strong, resulting in increases in both sales and profits.
In our agriculture- and fisheries-related sector, sales and profits fell from the same period last year due to sluggish growth of some products, such as horticultural greenhouses in the agricultural supplies business, as well as the impact of weak sales unit prices in the marine products processing business.
Sales and profits for MAEDAKOSEN VIETNAM CO., LTD., which is our overseas subsidiary, remained well as it was able to secure stable orders due to the expansion of its product range.
Additionally, during the fiscal year under review, the performances of SAIKOBO CO., LTD., which became a subsidiary on December 19, 2024, and Mitsui Chemicals Industrial Products, Ltd. (currently Maedakosen Industrial Products Co., Ltd.), which became a subsidiary on April 1, 2025, contributed.
Based on the factors described above, net sales of this business were ¥36,395 million (up 14.9% year on year), and operating profit was ¥7,355 million (up 8.9% year on year)
Industrial Infrastructure Business
In the automobile wheel business, sales and profits remained well as a result of BBS Japan Co., Ltd., our subsidiary that manufacturers and sells forged automobile wheels, enjoying steady sales of OEM products for domestic automobile manufacturers and sales of aftermarket products, as well as due to significant growth in the business performance of BBS Japan’s German subsidiary BBS Motorsport GmbH.
With regard to apparel and various industrial materials, despite the negative effect of an increase in costs related to the higher electricity rates and purchasing costs, sales of wiping cloth products used in precision equipment manufacturing recovered, resulting in positive trends in terms of both sales and profits.
Based on the factors described above, net sales of this business were ¥27,713 million (up 14.8% year on year), and operating profit was ¥6,010 million (up 17.8% year on year)
