To Our Shareholders
and Investors
We, the Inabata Group, have commenced the new, three-year medium-term management plan, New Challenge 2026 (NC2026), in April 2024, as the third stage toward achieving the IK Vision 2030—our vision for ourselves around the year 2030.
In NC2026, we aim to focus even more on growth than we did under the previous medium-term management plan, NC2023, with the main theme of “accelerating growth through investment.” Specific strategies include company-wide and segment-specific growth strategies and management base strategies—financial, sustainability, and digital —that support the growth strategies.
Our growth strategies call for aggressively investing in growth to expand earnings further and improve profitability. Target areas of business expansion include the environment, such as renewable energy and recycling, automotive, and food.
As one of our management base strategies, we set the goal of “increasing our stock price, as soon as possible, to a level that exceeds PBR of 1x.” We aim to achieve this goal early by realizing “management conscious of cost of capital and share prices.”
Further, as part of our sustainability strategy, we established the “Sustainability Medium-term Plan” to address the key management priorities (materiality) identified in June 2022. The plan spans the same three years as NC2026, and under the plan, we will work to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to achieve carbon neutrality by FY2050 and nurture and strengthen human resources.
By steadily implementing these strategies, we aim to achieve our sales target of 950 billion yen and operating profit target of 27 billion yen for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027.
We kindly ask for your continued support.
