Recent Overview
Net sales increased 1.2% year on year, and operating income significantly improved, up 53.7% year on year
In the Containers Business for FY2026 (ending March 2026), net sales were ¥31,738 million (up 1.2% year on year) and operating income was ¥1,678 million (up 53.7% year on year). Although aerosol cans, art cans, and beverage PET bottles fell below the previous year, price revision effects and the acquisition of new orders for empty food cans, food PET bottles, Bag-in-Box, and general molded products contributed positively. In addition, the impairment loss recorded in the previous fiscal year (¥321 million) was significantly reduced to ¥4 million in the current fiscal year, which also contributed to the improvement in profit.
Key Products
Growth Drivers
- Price revision effects: Price revisions for empty food cans, Bag-in-Box, and other products supported sales and profit
- Strong performance of food PET bottles: Large-capacity double-layer barrier PET bottles for soy sauce and squeeze bottles for tsuyu increased year on year
- New orders and expanded applications for plastic containers: New business started in agrochemicals and gardening products, healthcare, and household goods fields
- Steady performance of Bag-in-Box: Stable sales for counter coffee plus price revision effects
- Expansion in preform volume due to new orders for large PET bottles and increased use of mechanically recycled materials
Risks
- Prolonged decline in demand for empty food cans (for marine canned goods) due to the long-term decrease in marine resources
- Decline in aerosol can sales volume due to sluggish markets for insecticide-related products, household paints, and automotive industrial products
- Decrease in orders for beverage PET bottles and preforms due to consumer spending restraint, expansion of private brands, and in-house production by customers
- Risk of decreased sales of art cans (seaweed cans, confectionery cans) due to continued weak gift demand
- Risk of demand fluctuation for empty powdered milk cans due to changes in inbound tourism demand
