(Notes on forward-looking statements, etc.)

- Overview of Operating Results, etc.
(1) Overview of Operating Results for the Fiscal Year under Review
During the fiscal year under review, the Japanese economy continued to recover gradually, withdriven by employment growth and income increase. However, the economic outlook remains uncertain due to the factors such as U.S. tariff policies and increasing geopolitical risks.
Under these circumstances, the Group has been working to achieve the numerical targets of the 16th medium-term management plan “Aggressive Challenge One NETUREN 2026” (a plan covering the three years from April 2024 to March 2027), which is based on four basic strategies: “Create new drivers to grow”, “Generate growth engines”, “Expand market globally” and “Develop employees with self-motivation at work”. Furthermore, we are continuing efforts to pass on increased costs, such as rising personnel expenses, to selling prices, while implementing thorough cost reductions.
Based on the strategies outlined in the medium-term management plan, we have added Dohken Co., Ltd. (a consolidated subsidiary), MDI Corporation (a consolidated subsidiary), and ANDO Imagineering Group Inc. (an affiliate not accounted for under the equity method) into our Group.
Dohken manufactures and sells high-quality precast concrete products that are supplied as components mainly for high-rise buildings. In the future, the construction industry will face further labor shortages and an aging workforce. Therefore, Neturen Group believes that demand for precast concrete products will also increase to shorten construction period and improve quality control at construction sites.
MDI specializes in thermal management technology offering comprehensive services - from waste heat recovery consulting to the design, manufacture, sale and maintenance of energy-saving systems. These solutions help a variety of factories reduce CO2 emissions, conserve energy, improve their working environment which helps prevent their employees from heatstroke. Consequently, MDI has seen a steady increase in orders from a diverse range of companies committed to SDGs and CO2 reduction. As businesses are increasingly required to adopt heatstroke prevention measures, Neturen group believes that market demand for MDI's business will continue to grow for the future.
ANDO Imagineering Group is an architectural engineering firm that specializes in structural design for various types of buildings including PC (Prestressed Concrete) structures and handles architectural design in-house.
The company is expected to create synergies by combining its design technologies and know-how with our Group’s high-strength PC steel manufacturing and processing technology, as well as our high-strength PC product manufacturing technology.
These companies have their own technical strengths, so we strongly expect them to contribute to the expansion of our business domain and growth in revenue and profits.
As a result, sales for this consolidated fiscal year were ¥58,277 million (up 1.2% year on year), despite a sluggish market of our operating industry. The reasons for the gain were successful passing on the increased costs to sales prices, and the inclusion of Doken Co., Ltd. in the consolidated group.
Operating profit was ¥1,892 million (up 17.0% year on year), and ordinary profit was ¥2,663 million (up 14.8% year on year).
Profit attributable to owners of parent was ¥1,329 million (down 26.8% year on year), including impairment loss on fixed assets of ¥257 million. The year-on-year decline was caused by the recording of a gain on sales of investment securities of ¥1,217 million in the previous fiscal year.
The Group will strive to increase orders and improve profits, while proactively engaging in sales activities - including passing on increased costs to selling prices - and to continue thorough cost reduction efforts, thereby working to enhance its corporate value.
Results by business segment are as follows.
1) Specialty Steel and Wire Products Division
Sales of civil engineering and construction-related products continued to be affected by the sluggish construction industry, labor shortages, and delays in the construction schedule due to rising costs of construction materials.
Net sales of the high-strength spring steel wire for automotive applications increased year-on-year. While domestic sales decreased due to a decline in production support for some customers and sluggish sales volumes at some automakers using our products, overseas sales remained robust.
Sales of construction machinery-related products increased compared to the same period last year due to robust construction markets in Japan and China and successful passing on of increased costs to selling prices.
As a result, net sales were ¥36,335 million (down 0.6% year-on-year), while operating profit was ¥464 million (up 157.8% year-on-year), thanks to the strong performance of overseas sales of high-strength spring steel wire and construction machinery-related products, as well as price revisions for civil engineering and construction-related products.
2) Induction Heating Division
Sales of induction heat treatment-related services to the automotive industry decreased during the second half of the fiscal year driven by a decline in customer orders resulting from the prolonged impact of US tariffs.
Although orders for machine tools gradually recovered from the fourth quarter of the previous fiscal year this was not enough to offset the overall decline, resulting in a decrease compared to the same period the previous year.
Sales of the induction heating equipment-related products decreased both domestically and internationally compared to the same period of the previous year due to factors such as customers postponing their capital investment plans, as well as and economic downturn and delayed in customers' schedules in China.
As a result, sales were ¥19,526 million (down 6.4% year on year) and operating profit was ¥1,301 million (down 5.5% year on year).
3) Others
This segment covers revenues such as real estate leasing that are not included in the reportable segments, as well as the revenues and expenses of Doken Co., Ltd. and MDI Co., Ltd., which have recently joined our group.
Leasing properties owned by the Company are making stable contribution to performance, although small in scale.
In addition, we the earnings of Doken, which has become a newly consolidated subsidiary, and recorded ¥133 million in expenses related to the acquisition of its shares. Regarding the profit and loss of MDI, its earnings will be reflected starting from the next fiscal year, but we recorded ¥56 million in share acquisition expenses in the current consolidated fiscal year.
As a result, sales were ¥2,416 million (up 1,586.0% year on year), and operating profit was ¥122 million (up 115.8% year on year).
(2) Overview of Financial Position for the Fiscal Year under Review
Total assets at the end of the current consolidated fiscal year were ¥88,146 million (up 5.2% year on year). Although there were asset-decreasing factors such as share acquisition expenses for Doken and MDI, the purchase of treasury stock and dividend payments, total assets increased primarily due to recording assets including goodwill from the addition of the two new consolidated subsidiaries.
Total liabilities at the end of the current consolidated fiscal year were ¥22,768 million (up 30.6% year on year), this was mainly due to an increase in borrowings, which offset decrease in account payables.
Net assets at the end of the current consolidated fiscal year were ¥65,378 million (down 1.4% year on year). This decline was primarily due to dividend payments and share buybacks, despite increase in valuation differences on available-for-sale securities and foreign currency translation adjustments. As a result, the equity ratio at the end of the fiscal year under review was 66.0%.
(3) Overview of Cash Flows for the Fiscal Year under Review
The balance of cash and cash equivalents (hereinafter, "cash") at the end of the fiscal year under review was ¥14,204 million (decrease of ¥3,375 million from the end of the previous fiscal year), the breakdown is as follows.
(Cash Flows from Operating Activities)
Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to ¥1,773 million (compared to ¥4,107 million provided in the previous fiscal year).
This was mainly due to the recording of profit before income taxes of ¥2,344 million and an increase in trade payables of ¥1,108 million.
(Cash Flows from Investing Activities)
Net cash used in investing activities was ¥5,235 million (compared to ¥3,404 million used in the previous fiscal year).
This was mainly due to the purchase of property, plant and equipment of ¥3,990 million and purchase of shares of subsidiaries resulting in change in scope of consolidation of ¥2,128 million.
(Cash Flows from Financing Activities)
Net cash used in financing activities was ¥121 million (compared to ¥1,713 million provided in the previous fiscal year).
This was mainly due to repayment of long-term borrowings of ¥5,244 million, purchase of treasury shares of ¥2,000 million and dividends paid of ¥2,005 million in spite of proceeds of new long-term borrowings from ¥9,602 million.

(Notes) 1. Calculation method of each indicator
1) Equity ratio: Equity / total assets
2) Equity ratio based on market value: Total market value of shares (closing price of stock $\times$ total number of issued and outstanding shares) / total assets
3) Interest-bearing debt to cash flow ratio: Interest-bearing debt / cash flow from operating activities
4) Interest coverage ratio: Cash flow from operating activities / interest payments
- Total market value of shares is calculated based on the number of issued and outstanding shares excluding treasury shares. Cash flow from operating activities is net cash provided by (used in) operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Interest-bearing debt refers to borrowings recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The amount of interest payments is the amount of interest expenses recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
(4) Future Outlook
In Japan, we anticipate that the uncertain outlook will continue due to ongoing inflation and intensifying labor shortages. Overseas, uncertainty is driven by rising geopolitical risks, such as US tariff policies, concerns over the economic slowdown in China, and the prolonged conflict in Ukraine. Furthermore, the volatile situation in the Middle East could potentially impact on the Group's business operations.
Despite this unpredictable operating environment, we project net sales of ¥64,000 million, operating profit of ¥2,100 million, ordinary profit of ¥2,500 million, and profit attributable to owners of the parent of ¥1,500 million for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027. These projections are based on demand forecasts within the currently foreseeable scope, incorporating strategic sales activities to pass on inflation-driven cost increases into selling prices, alongside internal efforts such as Group-wide cost-reduction initiatives.
Note that we have revised the financial target of the final year of the 16th Medium-Term Management Plan, "Aggressive Challenge One NETUREN 2026" (a three-year plan), to reflect these consolidated forecast figures. For details, please refer to the "Notice Regarding the Revision of the 16th Medium-Term Management Plan" disclosed today (May 13, 2026).
These forecasts are based on information presently available and include many uncertain factors. Actual results may differ from these forecasts due to changes in business conditions and other factors.
(5) Basic Policy on Profit Distribution and Dividends for the Current and Next Fiscal Years
Dividends for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026
The Company has a basic policy to maintain stable dividends to shareholders while making strategic investments for growth and conducting stable business operations.
Note that “stable dividends” refers to a dividend on equity (DOE) rate of 4.0% or more.
Regarding the year-end dividend (ordinary dividend) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, we proposed a year-end dividend of ¥38 per share, prioritizing shareholder returns and comprehensively taking into consideration our business performance, financial conditions, and other factors.
As a result, the total annual dividend, including the interim dividend of ¥33, will be ¥71 per share.
Dividends for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027
Regarding dividends for the next fiscal year, although the business environment remains uncertain, we plan to pay an interim dividend of ¥35 per share and a year-end dividend of ¥36 per share, resulting in a total annual dividend of ¥71 per share, in accordance with our revised dividend policy.
- Basic Policy on Selection of Accounting Standards
The Group’s policy for the time being is to prepare its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan (Japanese GAAP), ensuring the comparability of consolidated financial statements across periods and companies.
Regarding the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the Group will respond appropriately in consideration of various domestic and international circumstances.

(Segment information)
- Overview of reportable segments
The Company’s reportable segments are components within the Company for which discrete financial information is available and are regularly reviewed by the Company’s Board of Directors for the purpose of determining the allocation of management resources and evaluating performance.
The Company adopted a business division system centered on two business divisions, the “Specialty Steel and Wire Products Division” and “Induction Heating Division.” Each business division cooperates with organizations such as the Corporate Planning Office, the Administrative Headquarters, and the Business Planning and Development Headquarters and formulates comprehensive strategies for domestic and overseas businesses in relation to the products and services it handles and carries out business activities accordingly. In addition, our affiliated companies operate their businesses under each business division.
Therefore, the Group is comprised of segments that are classified according to products and services based on its business divisions. The reportable segments of the Group are “Specialty Steel and Wire Products Division” and “Induction Heating Division.”
“Specialty Steel and Wire Products Division” manufactures PC steel bars, deformed PC steel bars and shear reinforcement for civil engineering and construction, high-strength spring steel wire (ITW) mainly used for suspension springs for automobiles and two-wheeled vehicles, and automotive parts and construction machine parts, etc. “Induction Heating Division” is not only engaged in induction heat treatment service of critical safety parts for automobiles and machining equipment, etc., but also manufactures induction heating equipment for each industrial field.
- Calculation methods of net sales, profit (loss), assets, liabilities and other items by reportable segment
Reportable segment profit consists of figures based on operating income (after amortization of goodwill). Inter-segment net sales and transfers are based on market price.
