According to the financial results for the fiscal year ending March 2026, announced by Sumitomo Warehouse on May 12, net sales were 196.244 billion yen (up 1.5% year-on-year), operating profit was 11.413 billion yen (down 14.0%), ordinary profit was 15.808 billion yen (down 9.7%), and net profit attributable to parent company shareholders was 17.668 billion yen (down 11.9%).
Sales in the logistics business reached 185.918 billion yen (up 1.8%), but operating profit was 13.538 billion yen (down 3.8%) due to increased personnel costs and depreciation expenses.
In the warehousing sector, warehouse revenue increased to 33.42 billion yen (a 3.9% increase) due to factors such as an increase in the handling of high value-added goods like temperature-controlled cargo.
In the port transportation industry, revenue increased to 33.61 billion yen (a 3.3% increase) due to factors such as an increase in container handling.
In the international transport business, while air cargo transport saw increased revenue, international integrated transport and project transport saw decreased revenue, resulting in total international transport revenue of 54.596 billion yen (down 0.5%).
In the land transportation and other businesses, revenue from land transportation and other operations increased to 64.308 billion yen (1.8% increase), due to factors such as an increase in the handling of freight transport and strong performance at the information systems subsidiary.
For the next fiscal year, we project sales of 2000 billion yen (up 1.9%), operating profit of 122 billion yen (up 6.9%), ordinary profit of 161 billion yen (up 1.8%), and net profit attributable to parent company shareholders of 172 billion yen (down 2.6%).
Furthermore, the impact of the situation in the Middle East is currently uncertain, and therefore has not been reflected in our future performance forecasts.
