Shareholder Returns
The annual dividend forecast for FY2026 (ending September 2026) is ¥24 per share (year-end lump-sum payment). In the prior fiscal year, an ordinary dividend of ¥22 plus a special dividend of ¥30, totaling ¥52 per share (total dividends of ¥865 million), was paid. The company continues its progressive dividend policy, but this fiscal year's forecast consists solely of the ordinary dividend with no special dividend. Treasury shares were disposed of during the period (¥35 million).
Dividend Policy
The basic policy is a progressive dividend (either increasing or maintaining the dividend), with the dividend level determined based on the dividend yield, total return ratio, and DOE in addition to the consolidated payout ratio. In FY2025 (ended September 2025), an ordinary dividend of ¥22 plus a special dividend of ¥30, totaling ¥52 per share (total dividends of ¥865 million), was paid. The annual dividend forecast for FY2026 (ending September 2026) is ¥24 per share (year-end lump-sum payment), unchanged from the most recently announced forecast. The interim dividend is ¥0.
ESG
The company positions the resolution of social issues through medical information systems at the core of its ESG initiatives. While it assesses that climate change poses no material impact, it promotes regular monitoring and reduction of CO2 emissions. In terms of human capital, it has introduced work-from-home arrangements, Activity Based Working (ABW), and 1-on-1 training, but the proportion of female managers remains at around 10% across the group as a whole, and improving diversity is recognized as a challenge.
