Total dividends amount to approximately 16,600 million yen, with the record date set as 2026-09-30 and the effective date as 2026-12-01.

The policy also states a conservative stance toward treasury stock holdings, and the company will continue to consider additional returns as appropriate.","jir_financial_highlights":"Dividend per share: 41 yen00 sen (Previous forecast 40 yen00 sen \/ Prior year actual 40 yen00 sen)\nTotal dividends: 16,608 million yen (Prior year actual 16,603 million yen)\nRecord date: 2026-09-30 (\uff0d)\nEffective date: 2026-12-01 (\uff0d)\nAnnual dividend (Fiscal 2027): 82 yen (Increased by 1 yen from previous forecast)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#SekisuiChemical, #Dividend, #ShareholderReturnPolicy","jir_key_figures":"Dividend per share: 41 yen00 sen\nTotal dividends: 16,608 million yen\nAnnual dividend (Fiscal 2027): 82 yen\nRecord date: 2026-09-30\nEffective date: 2026-12-01","jir_meta_title":"Sekisui Chemical Co., Ltd. - Notice of Appropriation of Surplus (Interim Dividend)\uff5c2026","jir_meta_description":"Sekisui Chemical Co., Ltd. has resolved an interim dividend of 41 yen per share.
