We sincerely thank you for your warm support of KIMOTO's activities.
Looking at the world, relationships between nations and new technologies are constantly causing changes like great waves. The speed of these changes is rapid, creating an uncertain era where it is difficult to foresee the future. Guided by our fundamental philosophy as a technology development company, which we have cherished since our founding, we will steadily advance through this turbulent era.
In 2025, KIMOTO took a major step forward to open the door to the future by launching our Sixth Medium-Term Management Plan. The theme of this new challenge is "Challenging Our New Possibilities." This embodies our determination to evolve without setting limits for ourselves and to vigorously carve out a sustainable future. To remain a company that serves you beyond national and industry boundaries while never neglecting consideration for the global environment, we will accelerate innovation and evolution through the following three pillars.
1. Products that create the future
We will challenge ourselves to develop products that solve future problems, not just high-performance products. Specifically, we will strengthen the development and sales of high-performance coating liquids and high-value-added specialty films. At the same time, we will actively introduce eco-friendly products and biomass material application products to the market, providing new products that meet society's expectations.

2. Digital Support for the Field
We will support the promotion of digital transformation (DX) to address the serious labor shortages and productivity challenges faced at construction and manufacturing sites. We will provide digital twin solutions that offer total support, from high-precision measurement to data-driven management and operation. Furthermore, leveraging our long-cultivated expertise in manufacturing and work styles, we will develop consulting services that strongly support your "work style reforms" and create the future of the workplace.

3. Development Speed for New Product Creation
To respond promptly to market needs, we will boldly reform our development structure and work methods. We aim to achieve a speed-up in development so that we can deliver to you at approximately four times the previous speed, and all employees will work with strong determination.
