AI要約
Change in dividend policy
We position shareholder returns as an important management issue and, while maintaining the conventional performance-linked dividend as the baseline, implement a framework to keep dividends stable even amid earnings fluctuations by raising the payout ratio and introducing the DOE. As a principle, the annual dividend forecast announced at the start of each fiscal year serves as the lower bound.
Revision of dividend forecast and effective date
The new dividend policy is applicable from the interim dividend at the end of the second quarter. At the same time, the dividend forecast was revised, with the annual dividend set at 100 yen (50 yen interim + 50 yen year-end).
