One-off items were 35% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 296% Dividend per share is over 5x cash flows per share. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (6.3% average weekly change).

It is more volatile than 75% of Japanese stocks, typically moving 6.0% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Dividend is not well covered by cash flows (dividend per share is over 5x cash flows per share). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (6.0% average weekly change).分析記事 • Jul 01Impressive Earnings May Not Tell The Whole Story For Gunze (TSE:3002)Despite posting some strong earnings, the market for Gunze Limited's ( TSE:3002 ) stock hasn't moved much.

Cash payout ratio: 185% Dividend yield: 2.5% This is considered a minor risk. Dividends are ultimately paid out of the company's available cash reserves. Companies that pay out too much of their cash flow are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. If cash flow growth slows or cash flows fall, then there may not be enough cash reserves to maintain the same dividend. Or in extreme cases, companies may opt to take on debt to maintain the dividend. This risk is mitigated by the fact the dividend is covered by earnings, however, cash flows are generally more important. For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company.Major Estimate Revision • May 17Consensus EPS estimates fall by 61%The consensus outlook for fiscal year 2026 has been updated. 2026 EPS estimate fell from JP¥224 to JP¥86.20 per share.

The company introduced two new types, FS35NB and FS40NB, which are compatible for boiling applications. These innovative additions retain the ultra-thin and tough characteristics that have defined the series to date, making them more convenient for use in central kitchens and other food processing facilities. They also contribute to environmental sustainability by reducing the use of plastic by approximately 50%. The movement toward a plastic-free society is gaining momentum not only in Japan, but around the world. With the implementation of the "Plastic Resource Circulation Act" in Japan in April 2022, all stakeholders are now required to reduce plastic use and promote resource recycling throughout the entire lifecycle of plastic products, from design to waste disposal. In particular, perishable seafood, livestock products, and their processed forms are often transported in freezing environments, where reducing plastic use is challenging due to concerns about strength loss from volume reduction. In January 2022, Gunze introduced Purewrap FS35N and FS40N, which offer more than twice the puncture strength of conventional non-oriented nylon-polyethylene 70 µm films while reducing plastic use by approximately 50%. This film type has been widely adopted by customers. It has now been renewed as a boilable type, expanding its applicability to a wider range of foods processed in central kitchens for commercial prepared foods and restaurants. The company recommends the product for food applications that require transportation in frozen environments and processing in central kitchens. Purewrap is a coextruded blown film with simultaneous biaxial orientation that provides exceptional puncture resistance for contents and impact resistance for external surfaces. The company's unique raw material compounding, multilayer construction and orientation technologies have made this nylon-polyethylene film highly flexible with superior puncture resistance, ideal for refrigerated transport.Buy Or Sell Opportunity • Aug 14Now 22% overvaluedThe stock has been flat over the last 90 days, currently trading at JP¥5,320.

Use of recycled materials: Approximately 1% of the printing waste generated by converters is recycled, and at least 5% of the raw materials are chemically recycled using the mass balance method. Phase 1 In-house post-industrial recycling: Gunze has transformed its Moriyama Plant, which manufactures shrink film and other products, into a zero-emission plant that produces no plastic waste. The Moriyama Plant is expected to achieve zero waste by the end of FY2024. Phase 2: Off-site post-industrial recycling. The GEOPLAS® HCX1 now being offered contains film made from collected post-printing waste generated by sister converting company, Gunze Packaging Systems. And the company intends to expand this initiative to other manufacturing facilities such as converters and PET bottled beverages in the near future. Phase 3 Post-Consumer Recycling: The company will contribute to a resource-recycling society by collecting post-consumer labels from the market and using them as raw materials for film production. The company will gradually increase the recycling rate, aiming to achieve 100% recycling rate by 2030. The company will also expand thick product line and promote its development in the food and toiletries markets.Price Target Changed • Jun 08Price target increased by 9.5% to JP¥6,517Up from JP¥5,950, the current price target is an average from 3 analysts.

One-off items were 25% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses.

The product is a polystyrene/polyethylene terephthalate multi-layered product that uses 5% of chemical recycled raw materials with the mass balance approach. The new product will first be launched in Japan and then expanded to the U.S., China and ASEAN markets. The product to be launched this time is the second product after company's eco-friendly grade GEOPLAS™ HCT3. The global shift away from plastic is gaining momentum and bringing tangible changes to immediate surroundings. From the introduction of paper straws in restaurants to the emergence of pay-per-use plastic bags, the movement is reshaping daily experiences. Last April, the enactment of the Law on the “Law for Recycling Plastic Materials” marked a pivotal moment, amplifying the urgency of addressing Japan's plastic waste crisis, tackling climate change, and navigating stricter regulations on cross-border waste imports. Under these pressing challenges, companies are now mandated to align their plastic product designs. At the same time, consumers are being given a key role by being urged to reduce the release of plastic waste, ensure careful waste separation, and choose certified plastic products. This concerted effort underscores a shared commitment to address the multifaceted problems caused by plastic consumption and to lead Japan toward a sustainable and responsible future. In response to the above background, Gunze has started to develop a hybrid shrink film that realizes the lightest weight shrink label. This film is not only lightweight, but also easy to use in the shrink label market, and is both environmentally friendly and excellent in function. Following HCX1 and HCT3, which use recycled raw materials, the company aims to increase the use of recycled raw materials to 50% by 2024 and to supply products made from 100% recycled raw materials by 2030 through the use of these technologies. The product is a polystyrene/polyethylene terephthalate multi-layered product using company's unique multilayer oriented film technology. It is widely used globally as shrink labels for PET bottled beverages, foods, cosmetics, home & personal care products and other products. The product has both polystyrene and polyethylene terephthalate benefits such as excellent shrink appearance, perforation suitability, heat resistance, content resistance and stiffness. Product outline: Product name: GEOPLAS™ HCX1; Lineup: Thickness 23 micron (Can be used with automatic shrink sleeve label application machines); Applications: Labels for beverages, foods, groceries, home & personal care products; Sales plan: Aim to sell 500MT in the first year (FY2024); Sales base: Japan, USA, Vietnam, China; Features: (1) Weight: Lightest weight shrink film for automatic sleeve applicators. (2) Shrinkability: Good shrinkability. Maximum shrink of 70%, suitable for complex-shaped bottles. (3) Perforability: Good perforability and Easy to peel along the perforation line. (4) Use of recycled materials: At least 5% of materials are chemically recycled using the mass balance method. The mass balancing approach is when a raw material with certain features (e.g., chemical recycled raw material) is mixed with a raw material that does not have certain features (e.g., petroleum-derived raw material) during processing and distribution from raw materials to products. It distributes the raw material with specific features to a part of the product according to the input amount of the raw materials with the specific features. The mass balance approach-based products require a third-party certification to avoid arbitrary decisions by companies. Gunze has already received ISCC certification in July 2023.Reported Earnings • Nov 04Second quarter 2024 earnings: EPS exceeds analyst expectations while revenues lag behindSecond quarter 2024 results: EPS: JP¥62.78 (up from JP¥59.88 in 2Q 2023).

New Risk • Aug 08New minor risk - Earnings qualityThe company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 35% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 296% Dividend per share is over 5x cash flows per share. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (6.3% average weekly change).

It is more volatile than 75% of Japanese stocks, typically moving 6.0% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Dividend is not well covered by cash flows (dividend per share is over 5x cash flows per share). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (6.0% average weekly change).

New Risk • May 22New minor risk - Dividend sustainabilityThe dividend is not well covered by cash flows. Cash payout ratio: 185% Dividend yield: 2.5% This is considered a minor risk. Dividends are ultimately paid out of the company's available cash reserves. Companies that pay out too much of their cash flow are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. If cash flow growth slows or cash flows fall, then there may not be enough cash reserves to maintain the same dividend. Or in extreme cases, companies may opt to take on debt to maintain the dividend. This risk is mitigated by the fact the dividend is covered by earnings, however, cash flows are generally more important. For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company.

お知らせ • Aug 28Gunze Limited Launches Purewrap Fs35NB & Fs40NB Thin Coextruded Blown Film for Vacuum Packaging of Boilable That Can Reduce Plastic Use by 50%Gunze Limited announced that the renewal of its ultra-thin and tough blown film, Purewrap, specifically designed for food products requiring transportation in frozen environments. The company introduced two new types, FS35NB and FS40NB, which are compatible for boiling applications. These innovative additions retain the ultra-thin and tough characteristics that have defined the series to date, making them more convenient for use in central kitchens and other food processing facilities. They also contribute to environmental sustainability by reducing the use of plastic by approximately 50%. The movement toward a plastic-free society is gaining momentum not only in Japan, but around the world. With the implementation of the "Plastic Resource Circulation Act" in Japan in April 2022, all stakeholders are now required to reduce plastic use and promote resource recycling throughout the entire lifecycle of plastic products, from design to waste disposal. In particular, perishable seafood, livestock products, and their processed forms are often transported in freezing environments, where reducing plastic use is challenging due to concerns about strength loss from volume reduction. In January 2022, Gunze introduced Purewrap FS35N and FS40N, which offer more than twice the puncture strength of conventional non-oriented nylon-polyethylene 70 µm films while reducing plastic use by approximately 50%. This film type has been widely adopted by customers. It has now been renewed as a boilable type, expanding its applicability to a wider range of foods processed in central kitchens for commercial prepared foods and restaurants. The company recommends the product for food applications that require transportation in frozen environments and processing in central kitchens. Purewrap is a coextruded blown film with simultaneous biaxial orientation that provides exceptional puncture resistance for contents and impact resistance for external surfaces. The company's unique raw material compounding, multilayer construction and orientation technologies have made this nylon-polyethylene film highly flexible with superior puncture resistance, ideal for refrigerated transport.

お知らせ • Jul 11Gunze Limited Launches "GEOPLAS HCX1 23 Micron", the Lightest Hybrid Shrink Film in JapanGunze Limited announced that it has launched "GEOPLAS HCX1 23 Micron", the lightest hybrid shrink film in Japan, which has now been adopted for use in PET bottled beverages sold by DyDo DRINCO. Gunze continues to promote the use of Japan's lightest shrink film in the market and to increase the proportion of recycled materials, aiming to realize a recycling-oriented society by reducing the amount of plastic used and effectively utilizing resources. This will be used for the production of "Luxury fragrance iced black tea" in July. There are also plans to expand this to "Luxury fragrance iced green tea". The product is a polystyrene/polyethylene terephthalate multilayer product using unique multilayer oriented film technology. It is widely used worldwide as shrink labels for PET bottled beverages, food, cosmetics, home & personal care products and other products. The product has both polystyrene and polyethylene terephthalate advantages such as excellent shrink appearance, perforation suitability, heat resistance, content resistance and stiffness.

Shrinkability: Good shrinkability. Maximum shrink of 70%, suitable for complex-shaped bottles. Perforability: Good perforability and Easy to peel along the perforation line. Use of recycled materials: Approximately 1% of the printing waste generated by converters is recycled, and at least 5% of the raw materials are chemically recycled using the mass balance method. Phase 1 In-house post-industrial recycling: Gunze has transformed its Moriyama Plant, which manufactures shrink film and other products, into a zero-emission plant that produces no plastic waste. The Moriyama Plant is expected to achieve zero waste by the end of FY2024. Phase 2: Off-site post-industrial recycling. The GEOPLAS® HCX1 now being offered contains film made from collected post-printing waste generated by sister converting company, Gunze Packaging Systems. And the company intends to expand this initiative to other manufacturing facilities such as converters and PET bottled beverages in the near future. Phase 3 Post-Consumer Recycling: The company will contribute to a resource-recycling society by collecting post-consumer labels from the market and using them as raw materials for film production. The company will gradually increase the recycling rate, aiming to achieve 100% recycling rate by 2030. The company will also expand thick product line and promote its development in the food and toiletries markets.

One-off items were 25% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses.

お知らせ • Dec 13Gunze Limited Launches Environmentally Friendly "GEOPLAS™ HCX1", the Lightest Shrink Film for Automatic Sleeve ApplicatorsGunze Limited announced that the company will launch an eco-friendly "GEOPLAS™ HCX1", the lightest shrink film for automatic sleeve applicators in December 2023. The product is a polystyrene/polyethylene terephthalate multi-layered product that uses 5% of chemical recycled raw materials with the mass balance approach. The new product will first be launched in Japan and then expanded to the U.S., China and ASEAN markets. The product to be launched this time is the second product after company's eco-friendly grade GEOPLAS™ HCT3. The global shift away from plastic is gaining momentum and bringing tangible changes to immediate surroundings. From the introduction of paper straws in restaurants to the emergence of pay-per-use plastic bags, the movement is reshaping daily experiences. Last April, the enactment of the Law on the “Law for Recycling Plastic Materials” marked a pivotal moment, amplifying the urgency of addressing Japan's plastic waste crisis, tackling climate change, and navigating stricter regulations on cross-border waste imports. Under these pressing challenges, companies are now mandated to align their plastic product designs. At the same time, consumers are being given a key role by being urged to reduce the release of plastic waste, ensure careful waste separation, and choose certified plastic products. This concerted effort underscores a shared commitment to address the multifaceted problems caused by plastic consumption and to lead Japan toward a sustainable and responsible future. In response to the above background, Gunze has started to develop a hybrid shrink film that realizes the lightest weight shrink label. This film is not only lightweight, but also easy to use in the shrink label market, and is both environmentally friendly and excellent in function. Following HCX1 and HCT3, which use recycled raw materials, the company aims to increase the use of recycled raw materials to 50% by 2024 and to supply products made from 100% recycled raw materials by 2030 through the use of these technologies. The product is a polystyrene/polyethylene terephthalate multi-layered product using company's unique multilayer oriented film technology. It is widely used globally as shrink labels for PET bottled beverages, foods, cosmetics, home & personal care products and other products. The product has both polystyrene and polyethylene terephthalate benefits such as excellent shrink appearance, perforation suitability, heat resistance, content resistance and stiffness. Product outline: Product name: GEOPLAS™ HCX1; Lineup: Thickness 23 micron (Can be used with automatic shrink sleeve label application machines); Applications: Labels for beverages, foods, groceries, home & personal care products; Sales plan: Aim to sell 500MT in the first year (FY2024); Sales base: Japan, USA, Vietnam, China; Features: (1) Weight: Lightest weight shrink film for automatic sleeve applicators. (2) Shrinkability: Good shrinkability. Maximum shrink of 70%, suitable for complex-shaped bottles. (3) Perforability: Good perforability and Easy to peel along the perforation line. (4) Use of recycled materials: At least 5% of materials are chemically recycled using the mass balance method. The mass balancing approach is when a raw material with certain features (e.g., chemical recycled raw material) is mixed with a raw material that does not have certain features (e.g., petroleum-derived raw material) during processing and distribution from raw materials to products. It distributes the raw material with specific features to a part of the product according to the input amount of the raw materials with the specific features. The mass balance approach-based products require a third-party certification to avoid arbitrary decisions by companies. Gunze has already received ISCC certification in July 2023.
