Dividend per share
the 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 basic policy is to prioritize the continuation of stable dividends while returning profits in line with performance. During the period of the sixth medium-term management plan beginning with the fiscal year ending March 2026, the annual dividend per share will have a floor of approximately 3% DOE (dividend on equity) and a consolidated total payout ratio of at least 50%. The company will pay an interim dividend of approximately 2% DOE and a year-end dividend of approximately 1% DOE, together with performance-linked dividends.
