Medium- to Long-Term Vision of Mobility

Mobility Forward!!
We unleash the power of chemistry to reinvent acceleration, steering, and braking in mobility, utilizing our material design technology (metal and resin) and processing technology to promote co-creation with our customers.
Furthermore, we utilize digital transformation (DX) and AI technologies to provide solutions that exceed customer expectations and achieve sustainable growth accompanied by profits.

Vision for 2030 and Roadmap to Achieve It

Achievements to Date	Issues	Priority Measures for Phase 2
Steadily advanced the optimization of business locations and revised our business portfolio through structural reforms in 2025 With a focus on profitability and capital efficiency, we concentrated our management resources by selling our aluminum laminate film business and automotive molded parts business Also made progress toward a more profitable business structure through price hikes and cost reductions	Focusing on creating game-changing products While R&D leveraging our strengths as a materials manufacturer has achieved certain results, creating game-changing products that lead to a transformation of our business structure remains a challenge that we must continue to focus on	Continue to strengthen revenue base through increased efficiency and cost reduction Further promote internal and external co-creation to ramp up R&D activities, starting with materials technology, to establish sustainable competitive strengths

Plans for 2026
Priority Measures : Enhancing Profitability Through Value Creation In 2026, we aim to reap the rewards of the structural reforms implemented to date to establish a highly profitable mobility business unique to Resonac, leveraging our strengths in material design as a functional chemical manufacturer. At the same time, we will enhance the speed and quality of development through team collaborations with our key customers. With a view to achieving an EBITDA margin of 15% in 2030, we will establish a business structure that enables us to create value in a stable and sustainable manner by balancing resource concentration in growth areas with profitability improvement.

Changing Society: Specific Example

This Business Headquarters advances materials, processing, analysis, and evaluation technologies through collaboration between CTO organizations, including the Institute for Advanced Integrated Technology, and internal functions such as the Packaging and Power Solution Center (Oyama). Starting from this internal co-creation, we have developed component technologies that support “acceleration, steering, and braking,” achieving functionality enhancement such as reduced weight, increased strength, and heat control, and expanding into areas such as environmentally-friendly materials for suspensions, powertrains, and brakes. Furthermore, through co-creation with customers from the development stage, we are progressively expanding the value we provide, from individual components to modules and then to solution proposals.

Contributing to Carbon neutrality at Manufacturing Stage

In the automotive disc brake pads market, demands related to safety and the environment are becoming increasingly sophisticated due to factors such as heavier vehicle weight resulting from electrification, the growing need for stable braking performance, and regulations for the materials used and brake dust. We develop products that achieve high braking performance and wear resistance through our formulation technology using more than 20 types of materials. We comply with North American copper regulations and Euro 7 dust regulations in Europe, and also contribute to reducing environmental impact by working to reduce CO2 emissions during manufacturing and promoting resource recycling.
