shareholders owning 500 shares or more at the Board of Directors meeting in July 2026, and reviewed the point system. Additionally, the company set a minimum dividend of 42 yen for the fiscal years ending March 2027 and 2028, and formulated a mid-term management plan targeting 50 yen per share by 2028. This demonstrates a policy to stabilize shareholder returns and enhance investment appeal.\n\n### Future Shareholder Return Strategy and Impact\nThe new dividend policy and revision of the shareholder benefit program aim to promote long-term shareholder holdings and ensure dividend stability. The impact on performance from fiscal year ending March 2027 onward is expected to be minor, and stable profit returns are anticipated for investors. The\u5236\u5ea6 changes will apply to shareholders from March 2027 onward, offering benefits to long-term holders.","jir_financial_highlights":"Minimum annual dividend per share: 42 yen (Newly established)\nDividend target in the medium-term management plan (Fiscal Year ending March 2028): 50 yen (Newly set)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#Niko, #IR-related, #JapanStocks","jir_key_figures":"Minimum dividend: 42 yen (Fiscal Year ending March 2027)\nDividend target (Fiscal Year ending March 2028): 50 yen\nShareholders eligible for benefits: Hold 500 shares or more (after change)","jir_meta_title":"\u3010Niko\u3011Shareholder Return Policy and Revision of the Shareholder Benefit Program | July 2026","jir_meta_description":"Niko reviewed its shareholder benefit program in July 2026, setting a minimum dividend of 42 yen.
