For the year, the company expects net sales to be JPY 490.0 billion against previous guidance of JPY 510.0 billion. Operating profit to be JPY 16.0 billion against previous guidance of JPY 27.0 billion.

Net loss per share to be JPY 180.24 against previous guidance of net income per share to be JPY 303.89. Reasons for the Revision: Net sales are expected to fall below the previous forecast mainly due to the transfer of management rights of UBE Steel Co. Ltd. in Machinery Segment, in November 2024. Operating profit is also projected to come in lower than the previous forecast as sales of caprolactam and nylon polymer in the Polymers & Chemicals Segment have been sluggish due to the impact of oversupply by Chinese companies. Ordinary profit is projected to be lower than the previous forecast due to a decrease in operating profit as mentioned above. Additionally, in the first half (interim period), the company dissolved an equity-method affiliate engaged in the elastomer business in Malaysia, recording share of loss of entities accounted for using the equity method. Profit attributable to owners of parent is expected to be lower than the previous forecast. Ordinary profit is expected to decline as described earlier.

The business environment for the cement industry continues to face pressures from declining domestic demand and reduced profitability in export markets. Against this backdrop, MUCC is advancing initiatives to strengthen profitability and improve asset efficiency, aiming to achieve sustainable growth and enhance corporate value over the medium to long term. Meanwhile, as MUCC seeks to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, a key effort is to improve its thermal energy substitution rate. In particular, MUCC considers it essential to expand the volume of waste treatment for thermal recycling at the Kyushu Plant, which has one of the leading cement production capacities in Japan, and to achieve a thermal energy substitution rate of 50% or more for MUCC as a whole. Under these circumstances, in order to establish an optimal operation system and strengthen the competitiveness of its cement business, MUCC will cease cement production at Kyushu Plant Kanda District 2 by around the end of March 2027 and consolidate operations at Kyushu Plant Kanda District 1, thereby improving the efficiency of production facilities across the entire Kyushu Plant. In addition, to maximize the use of its technologies and further improve the waste treatment substitution rate, MUCC will develop Kyushu Plant Kanda District 2 as a recycling promotion base, utilizing existing facilities for crushing and packing waste plastics and removing chlorine and foreign materials. MUCC will steadily execute these measures to further enhance corporate value and help build a sustainable society.분석 기사 • Dec 04UBE's (TSE:4208) Dividend Will Be ¥55.00UBE Corporation ( TSE:4208 ) has announced that it will pay a dividend of ¥55.00 per share on the 29th of June.

This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (11% operating cash flow to total debt). Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Paying a dividend despite being loss-making. Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Earnings have declined by 21% per year over the past 5 years.Reported Earnings • May 13Full year 2025 earnings: EPS exceeds analyst expectationsFull year 2025 results: JP¥49.60 loss per share (down from JP¥299 profit in FY 2024).

For the year, the company expects net sales to be JPY 490.0 billion against previous guidance of JPY 510.0 billion. Operating profit to be JPY 16.0 billion against previous guidance of JPY 27.0 billion.

Operating cash flow to total debt ratio: 15% This is considered a major risk. If the company's operating cash flows are too small relative to the size of their debt, it increases their balance sheet risk. The company has less cash from operations to cover its expenses from servicing large debt and it increases the risk of liquidity issues. It also extends the time it would take for the company to pay back the debt in full, meaning it may not be able to easily pay it all off in a distress scenario. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (15% operating cash flow to total debt). Minor Risk Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows.Reported Earnings • Nov 09Second quarter 2025 earnings released: JP¥46.20 loss per share (vs JP¥55.26 profit in 2Q 2024)Second quarter 2025 results: JP¥46.20 loss per share (down from JP¥55.26 profit in 2Q 2024).

공시 • Jan 28+ 1 more updateUBE Corporation Revises Consolidated Earnings Guidance for the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2025UBE Corporation revised consolidated earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025. For the year, the company expects net sales to be JPY 490.0 billion against previous guidance of JPY 510.0 billion. Operating profit to be JPY 16.0 billion against previous guidance of JPY 27.0 billion. Loss attributable to owners of parent to be JPY 17.5 billion against previous guidance of profit attributable to owners of parent of JPY 29.5 billion. Net loss per share to be JPY 180.24 against previous guidance of net income per share to be JPY 303.89. Reasons for the Revision: Net sales are expected to fall below the previous forecast mainly due to the transfer of management rights of UBE Steel Co. Ltd. in Machinery Segment, in November 2024. Operating profit is also projected to come in lower than the previous forecast as sales of caprolactam and nylon polymer in the Polymers & Chemicals Segment have been sluggish due to the impact of oversupply by Chinese companies. Ordinary profit is projected to be lower than the previous forecast due to a decrease in operating profit as mentioned above. Additionally, in the first half (interim period), the company dissolved an equity-method affiliate engaged in the elastomer business in Malaysia, recording share of loss of entities accounted for using the equity method. Profit attributable to owners of parent is expected to be lower than the previous forecast. Ordinary profit is expected to decline as described earlier. Additionally, as a result of the decision to implement structural reform in the basic businesses, the company plans to record approximately JPY 35 billion in impairment losses and other related expenses. For details on the structural reform of the basic businesses, please refer to UBE Announces Structural Reform of Basic Businesses to Achieve Vision for 2030 released on January 28, 2025.

공시 • Jan 16UBE Corporation Announces Restructuring of Domestic Production System in Cement-Related BusinessUBE Cement Corporation announced that, at the Board of Directors meeting, MUCC resolved to cease cement production at Kyushu Plant Kanda District 2 by around the end of March 2027 and to transform the district into a recycling promotion base specializing in various types of waste treatment, as described below. The business environment for the cement industry continues to face pressures from declining domestic demand and reduced profitability in export markets. Against this backdrop, MUCC is advancing initiatives to strengthen profitability and improve asset efficiency, aiming to achieve sustainable growth and enhance corporate value over the medium to long term. Meanwhile, as MUCC seeks to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, a key effort is to improve its thermal energy substitution rate. In particular, MUCC considers it essential to expand the volume of waste treatment for thermal recycling at the Kyushu Plant, which has one of the leading cement production capacities in Japan, and to achieve a thermal energy substitution rate of 50% or more for MUCC as a whole. Under these circumstances, in order to establish an optimal operation system and strengthen the competitiveness of its cement business, MUCC will cease cement production at Kyushu Plant Kanda District 2 by around the end of March 2027 and consolidate operations at Kyushu Plant Kanda District 1, thereby improving the efficiency of production facilities across the entire Kyushu Plant. In addition, to maximize the use of its technologies and further improve the waste treatment substitution rate, MUCC will develop Kyushu Plant Kanda District 2 as a recycling promotion base, utilizing existing facilities for crushing and packing waste plastics and removing chlorine and foreign materials. MUCC will steadily execute these measures to further enhance corporate value and help build a sustainable society.

Declared Dividend • Dec 03First half dividend of JP¥55.00 announcedDividend of JP¥55.00 is the same as last year. Ex-date: 30th March 2026 Payment date: 29th June 2026 Dividend yield will be 4.5%, which is higher than the industry average of 2.2%. Sustainability & Growth Dividend is not covered by earnings (186% earnings payout ratio) nor is it covered by cash flows (114% cash payout ratio). The dividend has increased by an average of 8.2% per year over the past 10 years. However, payments have been volatile during that time. The company's earnings per share (EPS) would need to grow by 106% to bring the payout ratio under control. EPS is expected to grow by 63% over the next 3 years, which means the dividend may need to be reduced to reach a sustainable payout ratio.

New Risk • Jun 24New major risk - Revenue and earnings growthEarnings have declined by 21% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (11% operating cash flow to total debt). Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Paying a dividend despite being loss-making. Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Earnings have declined by 21% per year over the past 5 years.

Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (15% operating cash flow to total debt). Minor Risk Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows.
