Business

Saiseki Tokyu Kogyo was founded in 1950 and, as a member of the Tokyu Group, operates a construction business centered on paving and civil engineering, alongside a paving materials manufacturing and sales business handling products such as asphalt mixtures. Its group structure includes 12 subsidiaries and 2 affiliated companies, serving a broad range of clients from public-sector entities such as expressway operators, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, and local governments, to private-sector customers. Its main sources of orders are renewal projects from the East Nippon, Central Nippon, and West Nippon Expressway companies, as well as construction work related to national resilience measures, and it maintains a network of branches and business offices nationwide. The paving materials manufacturing and sales business has a vertically integrated structure combining internal demand (for the construction business) with external sales. The company transitioned to the Prime Market of the Tokyo Stock Exchange in 2022.

Business Model

In the construction business (completed construction revenue of ¥74,658 million), the company undertakes contracts from government and private-sector clients under a contracting model in which revenue is recognized as completed construction revenue. In the paving materials manufacturing and sales business (product sales of ¥33,373 million), in-house manufactured asphalt mixture and other products are sold to external customers, while inter-segment internal supply to the construction business (¥12,906 million) secures stable internal demand. This vertically integrated structure contributes to the management of materials procurement costs and to earnings stabilization.

Company Strengths

The company continues to receive orders for large-scale pavement repair and specified renewal works from East Nippon, Central Nippon, West Nippon, and Hanshin Expressway companies, with multiple expressway company projects among the completed construction works for the current period. The negotiated (non-competitive) order ratio for asphalt pavement reached 68.6% (in the current fiscal year), forming a stable order-taking structure that does not depend on competitive bidding. The carry-forward construction backlog for the next fiscal year remains at a high level of ¥41,012 million.

Through a vertically integrated model in which the pavement materials manufacturing and sales business supplies ¥12,906 million internally to the construction business, the company secures stability in materials procurement and cost control capability. In FY2026 (ending March 2026), operating profit in the pavement materials manufacturing and sales business increased 101.5% year on year to ¥2,999 million, reflecting the effects of promoting price pass-through and leveraging internal demand.

The company invests ¥472 million annually in R&D, centered on its Technical Research Institute, and has developed multiple proprietary technologies including low-carbon asphalt mixtures, the high-strength mixture "α Strong" utilizing recycled agricultural waste plastic, a remote-control system for asphalt finishers (verified over a distance of approximately 140km), and long-life mixtures. The company also participates in the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's new technology adoption promotion program, accumulating technical proposal capability as a competitive advantage.

ENVALITH's Perspective

In FY2026 (ending March 2026), revenue declined to ¥95,259 million (down 4.1% year on year), but operating profit increased to ¥6,417 million (up 9.9% year on year) and net income attributable to owners of the parent rose to ¥4,666 million (up 20.0% year on year), securing profit growth. In the construction business, both completed construction revenue and segment profit declined in a rebound from the prior period, which had been boosted by a concentration of large-scale projects. However, segment profit in the paving materials manufacturing and sales business recovered sharply, up 101.5% year on year to ¥2,999 million, underpinning company-wide profit. The operating margin continued to improve, reaching 6.7% (versus 5.9% in the prior period).

The order backlog at the end of FY2026 (ending March 2026) rose to ¥41,012 million (up ¥1,107 million from ¥39,905 million at the end of the prior period), serving as a leading indicator supporting the achievement of the FY2027 (ending March 2027) revenue forecast of ¥102,700 million (up 7.8% year on year). On the external environment front, the continuation of the government's national resilience measures and steady orders for expressway renewal projects provide tailwinds. On the other hand, elevated raw material and energy prices as well as a shortage of engineers remain risk factors to watch in terms of cost and construction capacity.

The annual dividend for FY2026 (ending March 2026) was ¥71 per share (interim ¥35, year-end ¥36), with a payout ratio of 55.7% and a DOE of 6.1%, achieving the medium-term management plan's DOE target of 6%. However, this represents a significant decrease from the prior period's annual dividend of ¥90 (payout ratio of 84.5%), and even considering that the prior period was exceptionally high, the decline in the absolute dividend amount could be a source of concern for some investors. The dividend forecast for FY2027 (ending March 2027) is ¥75 per share (forecast payout ratio of 58.5%), indicating a policy of dividend increases and confirming the continuation of expanded returns linked to profit growth.

Growth Strategy

An integrated approach under the Medium-Term Management Plan (FY2024–FY2026) combining the strengthening of core business competitiveness, investment in human capital, and the promotion of sustainable management

The company is concurrently strengthening its capabilities to respond to public-sector orders and expanding its private-sector customer base. It continues to pursue productivity improvement and operational efficiency through the use of ICT technologies. In FY2026 (ended March 2026), order intake was ¥75,765 million, roughly on par with the previous year, and the order backlog rose to ¥41,012 million. The foundation for achieving the projected FY2027 (ending March 2027) net sales of ¥102,700 million is gradually being established.

The company has been passing on increased manufacturing costs to sales prices and strengthening sales of low-environmental-impact products (cold-mix asphalt and low-carbon asphalt mixtures). Investment in upgrading asphalt mixture plant equipment has also continued. In FY2026 (ended March 2026), segment profit reached ¥2,999 million (up 101.5% year on year), marking a substantial improvement and confirming the recovery in profitability.

Based on the long-term vision of the "Desired State for 2030," the company is advancing the expansion of human capital through securing, developing, and enhancing employee engagement, together with reducing environmental impact. Sustainable management, which takes into account social challenges such as climate change and population decline, is positioned as a key initiative of the Medium-Term Management Plan, with efforts continuing across the entire company.
