Return to Shareholders / Dividends

As of May 15, 2026

Shareholder Return Policy

We will pursue investments aimed at medium- to long-term growth while maintaining financial soundness, and strive to return value to shareholders with a focus on capital efficiency. Regarding shareholder returns, our basic policy is to achieve a total cumulative payout ratio of more than 50% over the six-year period from fiscal year ending March 2026 to fiscal year ending March 2031 leading to a stable dividend with a minimum annual dividend of JPY 100 per share, and flexible acquisition of its treasury stock up to the end of fiscal year ending March 2031 considering cash flow situation, stock price trends, and other factors. 

Specific Figures for Dividend of Surplus

For the fiscal year ending March 2026 (FY2026), we will increase the annual dividend per share from JPY 60 to JPY 100 (interim JPY 50, year-end JPY 50).
