Shareholder Return Policy

We considers the distribution of profits to shareholders to be an important responsibility, and dividends are determined by comprehensively taking into account factors such as the results of each fiscal year, the continuity of stable dividends, and internal reserves for future business development. In the medium-term management plan for FY2023–FY2025, we aim to achieve a total shareholder return ratio of 40% by continuing stable dividends and utilizing stock buybacks.
