(Note) Modification from the most recently announced dividend forecast: None
* Daiwa Securities Group Inc. (hereinafter the “Company”) will basically pay dividends semiannually (interim and year-end dividends) at a payout ratio of 50% or more based on consolidated financial performance. In addition to this, the Company has set a minimum dividend per share (full year) of 44 yen from the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025 to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027. For convenience, the minimum dividend for the full year is shown in the total column of FY 2025 (expected) in the above table. As indicated in 3. below, the Company does not forecast operating results and it does not present the actual amount of the full-year dividends for FY 2025 because those amounts are currently undetermined. Those amounts will be determined in line with the aforementioned policy, taking into consideration the consolidated operating results.
Representative: Akihiko Ogino, President and CEO
For inquiry: Kana Nakamura, Executive Director, Corporate Planning Dept. Investor Relations Office (Phone +81-3-5555-1111)
