Business

Fuji United Holdings, Inc. is a pure holding company established in October 2025 through a sole-share transfer by Fuji Kosan Company, Limited. The group consists of 5 consolidated subsidiaries and 2 affiliated companies, and operates across three business areas: the "Green Domain" (Recycling Business, Home Energy Business, Renewable Energy Business), the "Energy Domain" (Petroleum Business), and the "Infrastructure Domain" (Rental Business). Its main customers include industrial waste generators centered in Hokkaido, household fuel consumers, construction contractors, and petroleum distributors. Of total net sales of ¥75,057 million, the Petroleum Business accounted for approximately 90% at ¥67,914 million, positioning the Energy Domain as the earnings base while the Green Domain is positioned as the growth driver.

Business Model

The Energy domain (Petroleum Business) and Infrastructure domain (Rental Business) generate stable cash flow by leveraging existing infrastructure, and this capital is allocated to growth investments in the Green domain (Recycling and Renewable Energy). In the Green domain, the company is expanding its recycling network through M&A and advancing the commercialization of environmentally-friendly energy through the manufacturing and sale of biofuel and recycled heavy oil. Through a resource-circulation model that integrates waste collection (venous flow) with energy supply (arterial flow), the company has built a unique competitive position.

Company Strengths

The company made Kankyo Kaihatsu Kogyo Co., Ltd. a subsidiary in October 2022, and made Yugen Kaisha Kajima a wholly owned subsidiary in October 2025. Backed by PMI track record and industry networks, the company has secured a continuous deal pipeline, building a reproducible growth model. The Recycling Business achieved net sales of ¥1,605 million and operating profit of ¥265 million (operating margin of 16.5%), exceeding the plan.

The Himeji Plant, newly established in Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture in November 2025, incorporates Japan's first technologies in four areas: a high-performance blender with variable bio-raw-material blending ratio of 1-99%, direct shipment technology bypassing product tanks, loading/unloading equipment compatible with all packaging forms, and an AI-equipped camera-based maintenance management system. It functions as the core base for building a nationwide biofuel supply system for both land and sea transport.

Fuji Kosan Company, Limited has a continuous petroleum product sales and purchase contract with ENEOS Corporation, concluded in October 2017 and automatically renewed annually, through which it stably procures Fuel Oil, Asphalt & Lubricating Oil from a subsidiary of its major shareholder, ENEOS Holdings, Inc. This procurement foundation supports stable earnings in the Petroleum Business, with net sales of ¥67,914 million and operating profit of ¥684 million.

ENVALITH's Perspective

In FY2026 (ending March 2026), the operating margin remained at 1.6% and ROE at 7.5%, indicating a low level of profitability. The Petroleum Business (Energy segment), which accounts for approximately 90% of net sales, is highly susceptible to crude oil and petroleum product market conditions, and there remains an external risk of prolonged high material and procurement costs due to yen depreciation. The pace of expansion in the Green segment's operating profit ratio (currently just under 40%) will be a key indicator for medium- to long-term corporate value assessment.

The consolidated earnings forecast for FY2027 (ending March 2026) calls for net sales of ¥80,000 million (up 6.6% year on year) and operating profit of ¥1,000 million (down 15.5% year on year), a plan for a decline in profit. The structure in which M&A-related acquisition costs and goodwill amortization (planned at approximately ¥5,000 million annually as common expenses/goodwill) weigh on profit is expected to continue. Cash flow management will be tested in terms of whether the company can maintain a high shareholder return level, with a dividend payout ratio of 68.2% (forecast), while simultaneously pursuing growth investments.

The financial base is stable, with an equity ratio of 43.8% and cash and cash equivalents at fiscal year-end of ¥4,944 million. Against the FY2028 target of ROE exceeding 8%, the FY2026 (ending March 2026) actual result of 7.5% is close to the target level. However, the medium-term plan assumes that common expenses and goodwill amortization will continue at an annual scale of approximately ¥5,000 million, and unless the expansion of profitability in the Green segment proceeds at a pace exceeding this, achieving the ROE target will be difficult. The quality of M&A deals and verification of integration effects will be important.

Growth Strategy

Three pillars: expansion of recycling M&A, establishment of a 50,000 KL biofuel manufacturing system, and improved capital efficiency through the holding company structure

In October 2025, the company made Kashima Co., Ltd. a subsidiary (recording ¥444 million in goodwill), expanding its network for industrial waste recycling and biofuel sales. The company maintains an ongoing M&A pipeline and aims to raise the operating profit ratio of the Green domain to over 60% by FY2030 (ending March 2030).

In November 2025, the company established a new biofuel manufacturing facility in Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture, introducing Japan's first high-performance blender and other equipment. The company is advancing the development of a nationwide supply system covering both land and sea transport. In parallel, it is building a supply system for Recycled Heavy Oil to create group synergies.

By clarifying the division of roles between the holding company and operating companies, the company has eliminated overlapping functions and achieved optimal allocation of group management resources. The target indicator is ROE of over 8% by FY2028 (ending March 2028). Actual ROE for FY2026 (ending March 2026) was 7.5%, close to the target level, with improvement of the revenue mix through expansion of the Green domain being key to achieving this goal.

For FY2026 (ending March 2026), the company implemented an annual dividend of ¥62 per share (¥31 at fiscal year-end), with a payout ratio of 28.2%. For FY2027 (ending March 2027), an annual dividend of ¥62 per share (¥31 each at interim and fiscal year-end) is planned, with a payout ratio of 68.2% (forecast). The company has clearly stated a stable dividend policy with a view toward a payout ratio of 60% over the medium to long term.
