2. Reason
We strive to realize sustainable growth through aggressive investments, increase shareholder value over the medium to long term, and increase returns to shareholders in line with corporate growth. Our basic capital policy is to maintain stable dividends to shareholders based on a consolidated dividend payout ratio of 35%, while emphasizing return on equity (ROE) as an indicator of capital efficiency to achieve a balance between growth investments and shareholder returns.
Based on the above policy, the year-end distribution for the fiscal year ended February 2021 will be 47 yen per share, an increase of 12 yen compared to the forecast announced on April 10, 2020. As a result, the annual dividend for the fiscal year ended February 2021 will be 82 yen, including the interim dividend of 35 yen.
We will sustain to pay stable dividends in line with the growth of our business results, and aim to achieve a consolidated dividend payout ratio of 40% by the fiscal year ending February 2024 which is the final year of our medium-term management plan announced today.
