Dividend per share
Fiscal year ending March 2027Each 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.
The company uses a consolidated dividend payout ratio of approximately 50% and a dividend-on-equity ratio (DOE) of approximately 2% as its dividend benchmarks, and determines the dividend amount by adopting whichever is higher of the amounts calculated every six months.
