At Okura Industrial Group, we are working on a range of measures toward achieving the targets outlined in our management vision “Next10(2030)” (hereinafter, “Next10(2030)”), which wasye with 2024, I was responsible for managing the 토토 배팅 사이트 as Division President of the Plastic Film Division. With the launch of “Medium-term Management Plan(2027)” (hereinafter, the current MTP), I was appointed President and Chief Operating Officer, taking on overall leadership of Company that creates new value through core technologies and is selected by customers” as set out in “Next10(2030)”, and accomplishing its final-year targets of 120.0 billion yen in net sales and 10.0 billion yen in operating fulfill.

We sowed the seeds for future growth and undertook structural reforms under “Medium-term Management Plan(2024)”
Under “Medium-term Management Plan(2024)” (hereinafter, the previous MTP), we faced significant external headwinds, not only from the lingering impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, but also from changes in the external environ due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the slowdown of the Chinese economy. Even amid this challenging 토토 배팅 사이트 environment, we succeeded in carrying out approximately 23.0 billion yen in capital investments over three years, as planned, sow we also built a leaner 토토 배팅 사이트 structure by withdrawing from unprofitable 토토 배팅 사이트es and selecting and focusing on high-value-added products.
Although we firmly executed the initiatives set out in the previous MTP, unforeseen changes in the environment and unexpected troubles meant that we unfortunately fell short of achieving our numerical targets for net sales, shall address the challenges that became apparent during the previous MTP. We shall also pursue further growth through the full-scale operation of OKURA VIETNAM and the production line for optical acrylic films for large liquid crystal displays (LCD plastic reduction. -
The meaning behind our slogan: “Fostering bonds, shaping a brighter future together”
In the current MTP launched in 2025, we adopted the slogan “Fostering bonds, shaping a brighter future together”. One thing I have come to deeply realize throughout my career is that nothing can be a company at the age of 37, I made it a point to engage in sincere dialogue with senior executives. By developing mutual understanding of each other’s character and professional values, we were able to foster a strong sense of unity within the organization—an experi
Based on my belief that deeper relationships lead to better work, I chose to incorporate my favorite word, “bonds (kizuna)”, into the slogan. Through fostering bonds with our employees and all stakeholders, I hope not on but also to help realize both the Company’s dreams and the dreams of each and every employee. Allow me to reiterate the positioning of the current MTP.
We have positioned the current MTP as a phase for the “Expansion of 토토 배팅 사이트 fields” that follows the previous stage of “Establishment of platforms & strengthening of foundations”. The aim is to transform the seeds sown during the previous current MTP, 2027, we have set targets of 93.0 billion yen in net sales, 7.0 billion yen in operating profit, and an adjusted ROE of 7.5%.
Looking at the 토토 배팅 사이트 environment, we anticipate further acceleration in the trend of promoting the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, and recycle) towards decarbonization and plastic reduction. At the same time, we expect the global situation to remain highly uncert more important than ever to keep our antennas raised and to actively capture high-quality information in order to guide our 토토 배팅 사이트 in the right direction.

Turning investments from “Medium-term Management Plan(2024)” into tangible results
In the current MTP, we have set three basic policies: “Steady implementation of growth strategies”, “Promote overseas 토토 배팅 사이트 to expand 토토 배팅 사이트 fields”, and “Create new products by strengthening research and development functions”.
Let me first speak about “Steady implementation of growth strategies”. Under the previous MTP, we made two significant capital investments in the New Materials Business. One was an approximately 6.0 billion yen investment in a film for large LCDs. Although we experienced quality issues in 2024 that prevented smooth operations, we launched full-scale production in 2025. If we can maintain stable operations, we expect earnings in the first year of the current optical acrylic films for large LCDs is used as protective film for polarizing plates. With the growing adoption of digital signage and the trend toward larger LCD televisions, demand for wider-width film is expected to rise. To stay ahead of this trend, we 토토 배팅 사이트 pro
The other was the establishment of OKURA VIETNAM, a company engaged in the manufacture and sale of adhesive products, with a total investment of 1.75 billion yen. Although we initially planned a vertical launch in January have pushed the start date back by about one year. For now, we are proceeding carefully with preparations for startup and aim to commercialize operations as early as possible. Our initial focus 토토 배팅 사이트 be on expanding sales channels for mobility-related applications in Southe -
Aiming for 30% share of overseas sales by 2030
Next, I would like to discuss “Promote overseas 토토 배팅 사이트 to expand 토토 배팅 사이트 fields”. Currently, the share of overseas sales of the Group stands at around 17%. Given the saturation of Japan’s domestic population, future domestic is essential for us to focus more on overseas markets, which continue to present growth potential.
Our concrete strategy begins with expanding sales of products targeting overseas markets. For example, sales of optical acrylic films for large LCDs, primarily destined for China, 토토 배팅 사이트 naturally contribute to a higher overseas sales ratio we operations 토토 배팅 사이트 not be sufficient. Accordingly, we intend to step up efforts to expand sales of life and package products in North and Latin America, as well as advanced-function films targeted at the mobility and semiconductor markets. To support this initiative2 in Jan Promotion Department within the Plastic Film Division, tasked with promoting market research, partner search, and new market development. After reinforcing the foundation within the Plastic Film Division, we plan to elevate this function to a company-wide organization in the future. Although our 17%, through the full-scale operation of the new production line for optical acrylic films for large LCDs and the transfer of film product manufacturing in the Plastic Film Business (such as film containers for liquid transport) to OKURA VIETNAM, which 토토 배팅 사이트 begin with the adhesive business, current MTP, and ultimately reach 30% by the final year of “Next10(2030)”. -
The medical and pharmaceutical areas are emerging as new growth drivers
With regard to “Create new products by strengthening research and development functions”, we 토토 배팅 사이트 prioritize investment in the four growth fields of “Information Electronics”, “Environment & Energy”, “Life & Healthcare”, and on the medical and pharmaceutical area within “Life & Healthcare”. Representative examples include single-use bags for cell culture and drapes for surgery-assisting robots. We expect this area alone to grow into a business worth approximately 1.0 billion three business divisions: the Plastic Film Division, the New Materials Division, and the Building Materials Division. From among the four growth fields, we aim to establish a fourth business division originating from the Research & Development Center.
To further enhance our research and development system, in January 2025 we consolidated the Research & Development Center and the Product Development Department of the Plastic Film Division. This consolidation 토토 배팅 사이트 enable centralized management of research and development addition, we 토토 배팅 사이트 relocate the marketing function of the development division to our Tokyo Branch Office, which 토토 배팅 사이트 move from Ikebukuro to the city center. This 토토 배팅 사이트 allow us to focus more intensively on developing new products and creating new businesses. -
We 토토 배팅 사이트 increase dividends and reduce strategic shareholdings to achieve a PBR of 1.0
As part of our financial strategy, we have set a target of an adjusted ROE of 7.5%. Given our capital cost of 7.0–8.0%, we aim to achieve an ROE of 8.0% at an early stage. share price, is around 0.7. We therefore intend to raise it to 1.0 or above—an expectation shared by the market—as soon as possible.
To meet these numerical goals, it is essential that during the period covered by the current MTP, we deliver results that exceed stakeholder expectations and demonstrate the Company’s potential for future growth. Equally wear allocate the profits generated.
Our dividend policy has historically been based on a dividend payout ratio of at least 30%. In November 2024, we added a new policy target of maintaining a DOE of at least 3.0%. Furthermore, 토토 배팅 사이트 enhance shareholder returns by issuing a special dividend equivalent to DOE 0.5% in addition to the ordinary dividend equivalent to DOE 3.0%, for a total dividend level equivalent to DOE 3.5%. In addition, we 토토 배팅 사이트 gradually reduce our strategic shareings holdings to consolidated net assets to less than 10% by 2030. -
Promoting the use of Shikoku’s forest resources
We 토토 배팅 사이트 continue to focus on the reduction of environmental burden as part of our non-financial strategy. Under the previous MTP, we actively explored initiatives such as chemical recycling, uschanvens difficulty of ensuring economic feasibility, we have yet to achieve significant results. We are carefully preparing for the right timing to invest, monitoring closely for a paradigm shift in society.
Meanwhile, our Building Materials Business is positioned as a model business in which our operations are integrated with the SDGs. Our main product, particleboard, is manufactured primarily from reclaimed construction waste and is used in components further, we aim to contribute to the circular economy. Additionally, our new structural timber business using lumber from the Shikoku region 토토 배팅 사이트 add value as a carbon storage business. In the future, by combining this with tree-planting activities after harvesting, we absorption.
For this reason, we regard the structural timber 토토 배팅 사이트 using lumber from the Shikoku region as an environmentally friendly 토토 배팅 사이트. The new plant is scheduled to begin operations in April 2026. -
Cultivating and securing the human resources essential for implementation of our growth strategies
We believe that strengthening our human capital is a key requirement for achieving “Next10(2030)”. As reflected in the word I personally value, “bonds”, I am convinced that the successful realization of this plan 토토 배팅 사이트 passionate colleagues. With this in mind, we intend to further increase our investment in human resources. Specifically, we 토토 배팅 사이트 clarify the human resources portfolio necessary to execute our medium-to long-term strategies and conduct a gap analysis with our tailored to each employee.

A company cannot be vibrant unless its employees are energized. It is precisely because of engaged and motivated employees that a healthy company can exist and operate soundly. With that in mind, we aim to buil every employee feels proud to work at Okura Industrial, finds meaning in their work, and sees their personal goals aligned with the Company’s objectives. -
Valuing principles, vector, and speed
In my management values, I place great importance on three elements: principles, vector, and speed. First, whatever we undertake must align with our principles, namely, our management philosophy, mottos, and basic an action conforms to these core standards. Second, in terms of vector, even if employees dedicate their full energy to their work, positive outcomes cannot be expected if that effort is not aimed in the right direction. It is my intention our 토토 배팅 사이트 by ensuring that all employees are heading in the correct direction. Once principles and the vector are firmly in place, the rest comes down to speed, as the saying goes, “Time is money”. I believe it is essential to proceed with a str
