the fiscal year ending March 2027, the dividend indicator will be changed from consolidated payout ratio to consolidated dividend on equity (DOE), aiming for stable shareholder returns.","jir_summary":"### Overview of Change in Basic Dividend Policy\nAt the board meeting held on February 26, 2026, PCA Corporation resolved to change its basic dividend policy. The previous policy of approximately 100% consolidated payout ratio and progressive dividend will end with the fiscal year ending March 2026. From the fiscal year ending March 2027, the dividend policy will shift to using consolidated dividend on equity (DOE), based on equity, as an indicator. This change reflects the expected achievement of 10% ROE and a positive turn of EVA spread, aiming to balance growth investments and shareholder returns in a business environment advancing AI social implementation.\n\n### Future Outlook and Shareholder Return Policy\nGoing forward, the company will strive for stable returns aligned with mid- to long-term net asset growth without being influenced by short-term earnings fluctuations. The dividend for the fiscal year ending March 2026 is planned at 95 yen per share. The specific dividend amount for the fiscal year ending March 2027 will be announced at the financial results disclosure scheduled for late April 2026. By using DOE as an indicator, the company aims to maintain a solid financial base and ensure a stable dividend level.","jir_financial_highlights":"Dividend Indicator: Consolidated Dividend on Equity (DOE) (Changed from approximately 100% consolidated payout ratio)\nDividend Forecast for Fiscal Year Ending March 2026: 95 yen per share (As initially announced)\nROE Target: Expected to achieve 10% (Policy change due to target achievement)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#PCA_Corporation, #ChangeInBasicDividendPolicy, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Timing of Dividend Indicator Change: Applied from fiscal year ending March 2027\nDividend Forecast for Fiscal Year Ending March 2026: 95 yen per share\nROE Target: Expected to achieve 10%","jir_meta_title":"PCA Corporation to Change Dividend Indicator from Consolidated Payout Ratio to DOE from Fiscal Year Ending March 2027","jir_meta_description":"PCA Corporation will change the dividend indicator from approximately 100% consolidated payout ratio to consolidated dividend on equity (DOE) from the fiscal year ending March 2027, aiming for stable shareholder returns reflecting the achievement of 10% ROE.","jir_og_title":"PCA Corporation Changes Dividend Policy to DOE","jir_og_description":"Announced a policy to change the dividend indicator to DOE from the fiscal year ending March 2027, aiming to balance growth investments and stable dividends.","jir_og_image_url":"\/assets\/og\/company-general_ir.jpg","jir_chart_data_collection":"[]","ir_related_company":17618,"ir_release_date":"","ir_type":"","ir_is_new":false,"ir_document_url":"","jir_ir_type":"dividend","footnotes":""},"sector":[],"importance":[],"class_list":["post-31318","ir_release","type-ir_release","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
