Notice of Revision to Dividend Forecast (Dividend Increase)


Information Services International-Dentsu, Ltd. (ISID), based on recent results performance, announces a revision to its dividend forecast for the fiscal year ended December 2015, as follows.


  1. Reasons for the Dividend Forecast Revision

    ISID recognizes that returning profits to shareholders is an important management issue, and has established a basic policy for continually providing an appropriate and stable dividend, while retaining earnings to realize sustainable growth.

    As indicated in "Notice of Revision to Forecasts" released today, the ISID Group anticipates increases in net sales, operating income, ordinary income and net income for the fiscal year ended December 2015. Net income attributable to owners of the parent is expected to achieve the record level due to the improvement of ordinary income and the gain on sales of investment securities to extraordinary income.

    Under such circumstances, the Company, inconsideration of such factors as the above mentioned dividend policy, the earnings forecast, and future capital requirements, has decided to further enhance shareholder returns, and revise its year-end dividend to ¥18 per share (¥11.00 as an ordinary dividend and

    ¥7.00 as a commemorative dividend), from the initial forecast of ¥14 per share (¥7.00 as an ordinary dividend and ¥7.00 as a commemorative dividend). As a result, the full-year dividend per share is expected to be ¥32 per share, ¥6 increase from the previous fiscal year.
