Dividend per share
Each vertical step represents one dividend payment, and the total height of the accumulated steps represents the annual dividend for the period. For periods showing only the annual amount, the payment breakdown is not provided, so only the end point is plotted.
The record date is the cutoff date for determining which persons listed in the shareholder register on that date are entitled to receive dividends.Payments begin on the effective date.
The company’s basic policy is to continue stable dividend payments, allocate profits to growth investment for the future, and make its commitment to returning profits to shareholders more explicit. Accordingly, it aims to increase cash dividends in line with the growth in earnings per share, without reducing them below the previous year’s level.
