Note: The Company has conducted a 2-for-1 split of its common share, effective as of April 1, 2026. As the record date for the year-end dividend for the current fiscal year is March 31, 2026, the dividend will be paid based on the number of shares before the share split.
Reason
The Company's basic policy for profit allocation is to enhance internal reserves to strengthen its management foundation while ensuring stable returns to shareholders. Profit distribution is primarily through the dividend, with a target consolidated dividend payout ratio of 30% or more. The Company will pay a year-end dividend of 105.0 yen per share, an increase of 15.0 yen per share from 90.0 yen per share (with a record date of March 31, 2026), based upon the performance results on a consolidated basis for the fiscal year under review as well as this basic earnings distribution policy.
For the fiscal year under review, the Company will pay an annual dividend of 165.0 yen per share (including the interim dividend), with the dividend payout ratio of 30.7% on a consolidated basis.
