The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The interim dividend was increased because second-quarter (interim-period) results exceeded the previous forecast. Meanwhile, as the earnings component of the full-year forecast was maintained at the previous forecast level, the annual dividend forecast was kept at ¥50 and the allocation between the interim and year-end dividends was reviewed.
