The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Based on its dividend policy of targeting a consolidated dividend payout ratio of 40%, the company revised its full-year consolidated earnings forecast upward. However, as the dividend payout ratio is expected to exceed 40%, it left its annual dividend forecast unchanged at ¥100 and set the interim dividend at half that amount, or ¥50.
