Dividend per share
Fiscal year ending March 2027Each vertical step represents one dividend payment, and the total height of the accumulated steps represents the annual dividend for the period. For periods showing only the annual amount, the payment breakdown is not provided, so only the end point is plotted.
The record date is the cutoff date for determining which persons listed in the shareholder register on that date are entitled to receive dividends.Payments begin on the effective date.
The company will pay stable and consistent dividends after comprehensively considering its financial position and profit levels. During the period covered by the Fourth Medium-Term Management Plan (fiscal years ending March 2026 through March 2028), the company will target a cumulative total payout ratio of at least 100% over the 3-year period and pay annual dividends of at least ¥170 per share. However, in fiscal years in which net income attributable to owners of the parent fluctuates significantly due to special factors such as extraordinary gains or losses, the company will determine the shareholder return amount after taking those effects into account.
