Announcement regarding Revision to Dividend Forecast
Please be informed that the Company decided to revise its dividend forecast for fiscal year 2024 at the board of directors' meeting held today.
1. Reasons
The amount of year-end dividend per share for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 had been undecided. However, the year-end dividend is expected to be 6 yen per share, based on an overall consideration of the profit forecast in the fiscal year, the outlook for the next fiscal year and beyond, funding needs for capital investment, the status of internal reserves, and other factors. The annual dividend is expected to be 21 yen per share adding the interim dividend of 15 yen per share.
