Business Environment and Dividend Outlook
Steel market conditions remain sluggish due to overcapacity in China and protectionist policies. Steel costs have surged sharply due to yen depreciation and a significant rise in spot prices for coking coal caused by Australian cyclones. The annual dividend is expected to be 80 yen as per the 8th Medium-Term Management Plan policy. Domestic and overseas steel demand continues to decline, influenced by rising construction costs and labor shortages. Overseas, especially in Asia, a challenging supply-demand environment persists.
