  3. Reasons for dividends of surplus (interim dividends) and revision to year-end dividend forecast

The Company regards the return of profits to shareholders as one of the most important management issues, and its basic policy is to sustainably increase the total amount of dividends in line with increase in corporate value, comprehensively taking into account trends in business performance, financial conditions, future business development, and so forth.

Based on the above basic policy, at the meeting of the Board of Directors held on October 31, 2025, the Company has resolved to raise the forecast year-end dividend per share from ¥105 to ¥135 and the forecast annual dividend per share from ¥210 to ¥240 for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. This resolution reflects the Company's comprehensive consideration of the following as main factors: the progress made as planned against the consolidated earnings forecasts for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, which represent a significant year-on-year increase in profit; the internal reserves; and successful steady purchases of business land expected to contribute to its future as a true general real-estate company.

The Company will further continue to meet the expectations of its shareholders by making investment in its shares more attractive with the continuous growth of its group and the return of profits increased in line with enhanced corporate value.

(Note) The above forecasts have been prepared based on economic conditions and market trends considered possible as of the date of the announcement, and the actual results may differ from the forecasts due to various factors in the future.
