The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Net income increased from the previously announced figure due to temporary profit specific to the current fiscal year. Accordingly, based on the basic policy of targeting a consolidated payout ratio of 35% or more, part of the profit was reflected in the dividend as a return to shareholders.
