The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The dividend was increased following the revision to the full-year earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026, under the policy of balancing long-term and medium-term enhancement of corporate value with the return of profits to shareholders, and the policy of targeting a 100% payout ratio from the fiscal year ending March 2025 through the fiscal year ending March 2027. The change to dividends paid twice a year is intended to enhance opportunities to return profits to shareholders and increase the frequency of such returns.
