Dividend Information

We aim for a consolidated dividend payout ratio of 30% and emphasize the stable payment of appropriate dividends in accordance with the periodic profit or loss. Our basic policy is to pay dividends of surplus twice a year: an interim dividend and a year-end dividend. The decision-making bodies for these dividends are the Board of Directors for the interim dividend and the General Meeting of Shareholders for the year-end dividend.

We plan to increase the year-end dividend for this fiscal year to 55 yen per share, an increase of 10 yen compared to the most recent dividend forecast. In addition, as the performance has been better than forecast at the beginning of the year, we have decided to add 10 yen per share as a special dividend for a total dividend of 65 yen per share.
As a result, the annual dividend is expected to be 80 yen per share. The Company conducted a 3-for-1 share split on April 1, 2024. The results for the previous year are the actual dividend amount before the share split, but when converted to the number of shares after the share split, the annual dividend per share for the previous year was 60 yen. In the current fiscal year, the annual dividend will be actually increased by 20 yen compared to the previous fiscal year.

Share split

Effective April 1, 2024, we conducted a share split at a ratio of 3 shares for each common share.
