The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The increase was decided based on the company's policy of providing stable, progressive dividends with an annual dividend floor of ¥90 per share, while flexibly returning to shareholders in line with profit levels. The medium-term management plan targets were revised upward due to increases in The Bank of Okinawa's average loan balance and fee income, as well as market interest rates remaining higher than at the time of the previous upward revision.
