MORESCO, running operations of R&D, manufacture and sale of chemical goods used in diverse applications with autos as the mainstay, promotes its 10th Midterm Management Plan (FY02/2025 to FY02/2027), centered on its commitment to MORESCO Green SX (MGS) Products, calling for CAGR of 6.0% in sales and 30.1% in operating profit during the relevant period, when setting the FY02/2024 results as the point of origin. Meanwhile, operating profit margin is to increase 3.3% points from 3.8% to 7.1%. The Company intends to improve its sales mix by enhancing sales of MGS products, which are considered to have relatively high added value and thus gross profit margin due to their contribution to reducing environmental impact and so on, looking to the above-mentioned steady increases in earnings. For Q1 to Q2 FY02/2025, sales of wastewater treatment equipment, which are certified as MGS products, expanded significantly, indicating that the Company is making steady progress in expanding sales of MGS products in line with assumptions of the Midterm Management Plan. The sales composition ratio of MGS products from FY02/2023 to FY02/2024 has increased from 29% to 33%, while the Company plans to achieve 40% for FY02/2027, the final year of the plan.
