The dividend forecast for FY2027 (ending March 2028) remains undetermined. Share buybacks were limited to a small amount of ¥2 million (161 shares).
Dividend Policy
The policy is not to pay dividends on common shares (annual dividend of ¥0 for FY2026, ending March 2026). The dividend forecast for FY2027 remains undetermined at this time and will be disclosed promptly once decided. As the Class A and Class B preferred shares were fully acquired and retired on July 25, 2025, no preferred dividends will arise thereafter.

As a climate change measure, the company supports the TCFD recommendations, setting targets of net-zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions by FY2050 and 100% renewable energy by FY2040. On the human capital front, the company is advancing diversity initiatives, including a target of 7% female managers (FY2030 target) and a male childcare leave uptake rate of 85% or higher, while also engaging in responsible supply chain management through membership in the RBA and RMI.
