The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.This is because the Company adopted DOE, which is less susceptible to fluctuations in profit in any single fiscal year, and introduced progressive dividends following a review of shareholder returns in conjunction with the revision of Medium-Term Management Plan 2027. It also reflects the change in the dividend policy and the revision to the earnings forecast for net income attributable to owners of the parent.
