An internal whistleblowing hotline, with an external attorney as the recipient, and a Security Management Office have also been established.
Shareholder Returns
Annual dividend of ¥18 maintained (¥9 at second-quarter end, ¥9 at fiscal year-end). The dividend policy sets a minimum annual dividend of ¥18 per share, and if 50% of EPS exceeds ¥18, the equivalent of 50% of EPS is paid as the minimum. There is no revision to the dividend forecast in connection with the revision of the full-year earnings forecast for FY2026 (ending December 2026).

The basic policy for the time being is a single year-end dividend payment, but for FY2026 (ending December 2026), two payments per year are expected: ¥9 at the second-quarter end and ¥9 at fiscal year-end (total ¥18). The dividend decision-making body is the Board of Directors.
