The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The Company has stated a policy of progressive dividends targeting a DOE of at least 14% and share buybacks, based on the financial policy updated in February 2025. Although the financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 2025 have not been finalized due to the impact of system disruptions caused by a cyberattack, the Company reasonably determined that the proposed year-end dividend is within the distributable amount based on the financial statements already finalized and remains within the distributable amount even after taking the impact of the cyberattack into account.
