What Daiseki does

Leading Japanese industrial waste treatment company recycling waste solvents, oil and sludge into fuel and raw materials.

Earns twice from the same waste: processing fees from factories that send in used solvents and oil, then sales of the recycled fuel and solvents, whose prices follow oil markets. Licensed treatment sites near industrial areas keep competitors out.

In one line: Japan's Clean Harbors, waste-recycling focused.

What could go right

  • Industrial waste regulation tightening

What could go wrong

  • Manufacturing activity cyclicality
  • New entrant/regulatory competition

Moat: narrow (regulatory licence, scale, installed base). Nationwide network of licensed treatment facilities is difficult and slow to replicate.

Named competitors: Daiei Kankyo (9336.T), Clean Harbors (CLH). The cockpit's measured peer set (industry) also includes China Sciences Ecorizon Tech (301175.SZ), Huaxin Resources Technology (301265.SZ), Zhongyuan Environmental Protection (000544.SZ), EIT Environmental Development (300815.SZ), Cleanaway (8422.TW), Wangneng Environment (002034.SZ).
Is Daiseki expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 14.0× against a peer median of 14.2×, 7th cheapest of 14 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about -8% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +7%, so the hurdle is -14 pp: the price already allows for a slowdown.
How has Daiseki stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -19.8% against -14.4% for the median peer; over one year +7.6%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
