distribution as its top management policies. As announced in the financial summary for the third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2026, the Environment and Digital Society businesses have performed steadily, showing smooth progress against the full-year earnings guidance. Although there are impacts from worsening geopolitical conditions, the business environment remains solid, leading to a revision of the year-end dividend to 42 yen per share and an upward revision of the annual dividend forecast to 80 yen.\n\n### Details of Dividend Revision and Future Plans\nThis dividend revision was resolved at the Board of Directors meeting held on March 24, 2026. The revised dividend consists of 38 yen at the end of the second quarter and 42 yen at the year-end, totaling 80 yen. This is an increase of 4 yen from the previous annual forecast of 76 yen. This proposal will be submitted for approval at the 160th Annual General Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for late June 2026. While strengthening shareholder returns, the company aims to maintain a target consolidated dividend payout ratio of about 30% and a dividend on equity (DOE) of 3% over the medium term, implementing its dividend policy in consideration of cash flow forecasts.","jir_financial_highlights":"Year-end Dividend Forecast: 42.00 yen (Up 4 yen from previous forecast of 38.00 yen)\nAnnual Dividend Forecast: 80.00 yen (Up 4 yen from previous forecast of 76.00 yen)\nPrevious Fiscal Year Annual Dividend: 60.00 yen (Up 20 yen year-over-year)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#NGKInsulators, #DividendForecastRevision, #ShareholderReturn","jir_key_figures":"Year-end Dividend Forecast: 42.00 yen (up 4 yen from previous forecast of 38.00 yen)\nAnnual Dividend Forecast: 80.00 yen (up 4 yen from previous forecast of 76.00 yen)\nPrevious Fiscal Year Annual Dividend: 60.00 yen (up 20 yen year-over-year)","jir_meta_title":"NGK Insulators Revises Fiscal 2026 Dividend Forecast to 42 Yen per Share Year-End, Annual Dividend Raised to 80 Yen","jir_meta_description":"NGK Insulators, Ltd. has revised its year-end dividend forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026 upward from 38 yen to 42 yen per share, raising the annual dividend forecast to 80 yen as part of its enhanced shareholder return policy.","jir_og_title":"NGK Insulators Announces Increase in Fiscal 2026 Dividend Forecast","jir_og_description":"NGK Insulators has announced a revised year-end dividend of 42 yen for the fiscal year ending March 2026, with the annual dividend expected to increase to 80 yen.","jir_og_image_url":"\/assets\/og\/company-dividend.jpg","jir_chart_data_collection":"[]","ir_related_company":7584,"ir_release_date":"","ir_type":"","ir_is_new":false,"ir_document_url":"","jir_ir_type":"dividend","footnotes":""},"sector":[],"importance":[],"class_list":["post-36116","ir_release","type-ir_release","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.7 -
