Shareholder Returns
The FY2026 (ending March 2026) earnings report correction disclosure (dated May 27, 2026) relates solely to a reclassification error between account items on the consolidated balance sheet and a correction to the presentation of advances received in the statement of cash flows; it does not include any statements regarding dividend information or shareholder return policy.
Dividend Policy
Dividends of surplus are determined based fundamentally on business performance, while comprehensively considering factors such as strengthening internal reserves and the mid- to long-term stability of dividend amounts. The basic policy is to pay dividends once annually at fiscal year-end, with the Board of Directors as the deciding body. For the fiscal year under review, common stock dividends were forgone in light of the current state of retained earnings. A dividend of ¥5.12 per share (totaling ¥40,000 thousand) was paid on Class A preferred shares.
ESG
As part of its response to climate change, the company has set environmental targets including a 20% reduction in GHG emissions by FY2031 (versus FY2021) and a 20% usage rate for recycled materials. On the social side, it has established human capital targets such as zero workplace accidents, a female manager ratio of 8% or higher by FY2029 (ending March 2029), and a 100% male childcare leave utilization rate, positioning ESG as a management foundation for sustainable growth.
