The basic policy is to prioritize the continuation of stable dividends while returning profits in line with business performance. During the period of the Sixth Medium-Term Management Plan, which starts from the fiscal year ending March 2026, the annual dividend per share will have a minimum DOE (dividend on equity) of approximately 3%, with a consolidated total payout ratio of at least 50%. The interim dividend will be approximately 2% DOE and the year-end dividend approximately 1% DOE, with dividends linked to business performance.
