Profit margins on paint finishing systems have stabilised

Paint finishing systems had repeatedly been unprofitable in the past, but OP margins

have stabilised, at 3.5% in FY3/25 and 4.1% in FY3/26, due to measures to improve

FY3/27 (-31% yoy) in reaction to large-scale orders in Europe, but expect near-term

orders at ¥90-100bn, assuming capex for replacements in North America, Japan, and

Europe, and solid demand to boost output in India. For paint finishing systems, there is

intense competition for orders from non-Japanese OEMs, and the OP margin gap

between the company and the largest player, Durr (8% in FY12/25), is likely to persist.

We forecast the OP margins at just below 4%.

Valuation:

beta, we are lowering COE from 7.3% to 6.2% (0.7 for beta, 2.7% for RFR, and 5% for
