Reason for the revisions
[Consolidated financial results forecasts] Revisions have been made primarily due to the non-consolidated
financial results.
[Non-consolidated financial results forecasts] Revisions have been made to full-year consolidated financial
results forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 mainly because interest on loans and discounts as well as interest and dividends on securities are greater than initial forecasts.

Reason for the revisions
As the full-year financial results forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 are expected to exceed the previous forecasts, the Bank has decided to increase the interim dividend by 4 yen from the previous forecast to pay 59 yen per share on the basis of its shareholder return policy. The Bank has also decided to increase the year-end dividend by 4 yen to pay 59 yen per share.
As a result, the annual dividend (forecast) for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 will be 118 yen per share, an increase of 42 yen from the previous fiscal year, with the payout ratio based on profit attributable to owners of parent expected to become 40%.
Reference
Shareholder return policy
The Bank's basic policy is to undertake stable dividends on a continuous basis while striving to enhance appropriate internal reserves to maintain sound management, considering the public nature of the banking business, and a payout ratio of 40% of profit attributable to owners of parent is targeted. In addition, acquisitions of own shares will be implemented in a flexible and agile manner.
