Dividend Policy
The policy is to maintain stable dividends to shareholders while strengthening the group's overall management foundation and financial structure. The basic approach is to pay dividends of surplus once annually as a year-end dividend, though interim dividends are also permitted under the articles of incorporation (no interim dividend was paid for FY2026, ending March 2026). The year-end dividend per common share for FY2026 (ending March 2026) is ¥5 (payout ratio 18.2%, total dividend amount ¥345 million). For FY2027 (ending March 2027), a dividend of ¥5 per common share is also planned (forecast payout ratio 22.4%). Class B shares pay a dividend equal to the paid-in amount multiplied by an annual rate of 2.0% (¥20 per share). No numerical target for the payout ratio has been disclosed.
ESG
The company promotes "human capital management," "environmental management," and "regional revitalization" as the three pillars of its sustainability management. It has set a medium-term target of reducing GHG emissions by 40% by FY2035 (fiscal year ending March 2035) compared to FY2019 levels, and a long-term target of net-zero emissions by FY2050, implementing measures such as solar power generation and LED conversion in the distribution business and plans to introduce EV buses in the transportation business. On the human capital side, the company is working on promoting women's participation in the workforce (having obtained Eruboshi and Kurumin certifications) and reforming its personnel system.
