    With regard to the non-consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, operating profit improved and returned to profitability, mainly due to an increase in dividends received from related companies. In addition, ordinary profit also returned to profitability mainly as a result of foreign exchange gains, including valuation gains arising from the year-end remeasurement of foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities. Meanwhile, the Company recorded a loss on the abandonment of receivables from related companies, which resulted in a net loss for the period.

(Reasons)

The Company has established the shareholder return policy under which it aims to maintain a dividend payout ratio of 30% of profit attributable to owners of parent, with a minimum annual dividend of 40 yen per share. Under this policy, the Company had initially expected to pay an annual dividend of 40 yen per share for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. However, in light of the financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 announced today, in which profit attributable to owners of parent increased more than previously forecasted to 41,842 million yen, the Company plans to increase the dividend by 12 yen from the previous forecast to 52 yen per share.
