Details of Resolution
1. Change in dividend policy
Reason for the change
In recent years, the Company has paid dividends based on its fundamental dividend policy, giving comprehensive consideration to factors including business performance and financial condition. With the aim of further enhancing shareholder returns and increasing shareholder value through dividends, the Company has decided to raise its consolidated dividend payout ratio to a level exceeding previous levels.
Details of the change (Before)
Returning profits to shareholders is one of the Company's top management priorities. We have therefore adopted a dividend policy that focuses on the dividend payout ratio, which is closely linked to the Company's business performance. Our fundamental dividend policy is to distribute appropriate levels of dividends in line with the Company's business performance with a target consolidated payout ratio of 35%.
