Business Details
Manufactures and sells Concrete Piles (PHC piles, SC piles, etc.) and performs Pile Driving Construction. The private capital investment market is the primary target, with the acquisition of large-scale projects positioned as a pillar of growth. The business's strengths lie in proprietary technologies such as the inner-boring method and jointed piles, as well as construction capabilities, and it is also promoting improved construction efficiency and quality control through the use of the ICT construction management tool "Pile-ViMSys®." In the current period, Manac Corporation became a consolidated subsidiary, establishing an integrated system covering manufacturing through construction in the Chubu region.
Recent Overview
Absorbed the decline from the reversal of prior-year large-scale projects to achieve the full-year plan; strengthened the Chubu base through the Manac subsidiary consolidation
In FY2026 (ending March 2026), the reversal effect from prior-year large-scale projects impacted results from the start of the period, resulting in year-on-year declines in revenue and profit on a quarterly basis; however, the start of shipments for the Osaka IR-related project and the accumulation of projects leveraging technological strength enabled the segment to secure the planned level for the full year. Net sales reached ¥24,297 million (up 6.9% year on year), and segment profit reached ¥1,330 million (up 1.9% year on year). In the fourth quarter, Manac Corporation became a consolidated subsidiary, establishing an integrated system covering manufacturing through construction in the Chubu region. The company also began development of ultra-high-strength concrete piles achieving Japan's highest strength grade (concrete strength of 200N/mm2 class).
Key Products
Growth Drivers
- Steady public investment aimed at aging infrastructure countermeasures and national resilience
- Maintenance of a favorable order environment supported by a recovery trend in private capital investment
- Progress in shipments for large-scale private projects such as the Osaka IR-related project
- Establishment of an integrated manufacturing-to-construction system in the Chubu region through the consolidation of Manac Corporation, resolving growth constraints
- Enhanced construction quality, productivity, and differentiated proposal capabilities through expanded use of ICT such as Pile-ViMSys®
- Advancement of technological capabilities through the development of Japan's highest-strength-grade ultra-high-strength concrete piles
Risks
- High dependence on large-scale projects, leading to significant year-on-year performance volatility, as seen in the impact of the reversal from prior-year large-scale projects on early-period results
- Cost increase pressure from continued elevated material prices and ongoing labor shortages
- Uncertainty in energy prices and logistics costs stemming from heightened tensions in the Middle East
- Uncertainty regarding the outlook for private capital investment due to geopolitical risks and the impact of US trade policy
- Recognition of goodwill (¥688 million) and integration risk associated with the consolidation of Manac Corporation
- Segment assets expanded significantly, up 37.7% year on year, making the maintenance of asset efficiency a challenge
