If the stock split were taken into account, the total annual dividend for the year ended March 31, 2025 would be 24.00 yen per share.

Regarding the appropriate use of forecast, etc.

The forecast of the azbil Group is based on currently available information and some reasonable assumptions. Due to various factors, actual results may differ from those discussed in this document.

1. Overview of financial results and othersBased on the Group philosophy of "human-centered automation", the azbil Group strives-through business expansion-to contribute "in series" to the achievement of a sustainable society. In this way we aim to continuously improve enterprise value, endeavoring to realize the well-being of society as well as group employees, while building relationships of trust with all stakeholders.
Consequently, we have set long-term targets Note 1 for FY2030, aiming to achieve net sales of
420.0 billion yen, operating income of 65.0 billion yen, an operating margin of 15.5%, and an ROE of 15%. To achieve these long-term targets, the medium-term plan (FY2025-FY2027) Note 2 sets the following as targets for FY2027, the final year of the plan: net sales of 340.0 billion yen, operating income of 51.0 billion yen, an operating margin of 15.0%, and an ROE of 14.0%.
With a view to attaining our long-term targets for FY2030, this medium-term plan represents our commitment to "Evolution and Co-creation" aimed at contributing "in series" to the achievement of a sustainable society. Faced with global geopolitical risks, the impact of U.S. tariff policies, inflation and other challenges, we anticipate that considerable uncertainty will continue to affect the business environment. Nevertheless, while working to enhance profitability in our core businesses-based on the strong relationships built up over many years with our extensive customer base (factories, plants, commercial buildings, lifeline utilities, etc.)-we see fresh business opportunities in solving social issues that arise from new technological innovations, such as in semiconductors, and from changes in the social environment, such as initiatives to achieve carbon neutrality. By focusing on these growth businesses, we aim to achieve future business expansion.
In addition, by developing new customers in our growth businesses and providing them with a steady supply of products and services, we will expand the customer base in our core businesses and, moreover, we will realize growth by providing these customers with solutions to the new issues facing them. In this way, the azbil Group characteristically creates a business cycle in which growth leads to strengthening the core business which in turn generates more growth. We will actively invest in strengthening our human capital, enhancing product competitiveness, and advancing DX in order to consolidate and enhance this unique business model. Specifically, we will engage in securing and training human resources that align with our business strategy, developing highly competitive products as well as DX-related products and services that satisfy customer needs, enhancing operational efficiency and profitability through the application of DX to in-house operations, and strengthening our global production system.
Moreover, we will continue to ensure management that is conscious of the cost of capital, restructuring and optimizing our business portfolio, and at the same time implementing sustainability management. We have identified materiality as ten material issues across five areas, and we have established the essential goals of the azbil Group for the SDGs as well as the goal of discharging the fundamental obligations that a company must fulfill in order to continue to exist in society. We will advance initiatives to achieve these goals.
Starting from the results achieved under the previous medium-term plan, we will endeavor to realize the well-being of society as well as group employees through business expansion, by making contributions that lead "in series" to a sustainable society, based on the themes of "Evolution and Co-creation."
