Shareholder Return

Dividend distribution to foreign shareholders not listed on the shareholder registry

  • We will propose at the Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation that would enable foreign shareholders without voting rights (foreign shareholders above 20%) to receive dividends.
  • Should the proposal to amend the Articles of Incorporation be discussed and passed, receiving dividends will become possible with March 31, 2024 as the record date.

Stock repurchase

  • Stock repurchase of 5 million shares (upper limit) for the purchase price of JPY 7 billion (upper limit) through market purchase at the Tokyo Stock Exchange.

  • As of the end of March, 1,625,700 shares have been repurchased at the total price of JPY 3,485,078,733.

Capital Efficiency Plans

Capital Policy

Continuous reduction of cross-shareholdings

•As we continue to reduce cross-shareholdings, we will consider factors such as the financial performance, dividend, and share price of relevant companies to determine whether it is reasonable to own their shares.

•In FY2023, we recorded JPY 11.9 billion in capital gains from stock sales.

Cash allocation

•We will place importance on the balance of investments for growth, investments to enhance our content creation expertise, human resource investments, capital investments, shareholder return (stock repurchase/dividend fund), and the like.

•New M&A fund (FY2024): approximately JPY 68 billion (refer to page 39 for strategic investments)

•As a news media, we will consider the necessity of having cash on hand for the continuation of broadcasting under catastrophic disasters.

We aim for higher ROE through improved financial performance and capital

efficiency. We will construct the next Medium-Term Management Plan to promote

growth strategies that take into account cost of capital.

FY2023 Financial Performance

Higher sales, lower operating profit

■Share of spot ad sales over 30%.

Tough conditions continue for TV ads, leading to lower terrestrial advertising revenue.

■Nippon TV's income from anime, international content sales, IP business, and films were strong.

■Group companies Murayama, TIPNESS, ACM, and Nippon TV Music were solid and helped offset weak ad sales to post higher revenues.

Studio Ghibli was included in the PL starting 4Q (BS inclusion started in 3Q).

Booked impairment for la belle vie due to deteriorating business environment.

Higher net income from equity in net income of affiliates and sales of cross- shareholdings.
