The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The dividend was determined in accordance with the policy of providing stable and continuous dividends, taking into account the Company's results for the fiscal year and the operating environment, while promoting business investment for sustainable growth and enhancing shareholder returns. Net income for the fiscal year declined from the previous fiscal year due in part to impairment losses related to the LiDAR business and the China business. However, based on the policy of targeting a consolidated payout ratio of 40% or higher, the dividend remains in line with the latest forecast.
