Shareholder Returns
Following the MBO, no year-end dividend will be paid for FY2025 (only the interim dividend of ¥11, for an annual total of ¥11). As delisting is planned, no dividend forecast for FY2026 has been disclosed. Share buybacks totaling ¥1,099 million were carried out in FY2025. The payout ratio was 26.9%, and the total return ratio declined significantly.
Dividend Policy
For FY2025, the interim dividend was ¥11 and the year-end dividend is ¥0 (annual total of ¥11, total dividends of ¥1,010 million, payout ratio of 26.9%). The reason for no year-end dividend is that the tender offer price in the tender offer bid (MBO) by MP-2605 Co., Ltd. was determined on the premise that no year-end dividend would be paid. At the Board of Directors meeting held on March 24, 2026, it was resolved not to pay a year-end dividend, conditional on the completion of the tender offer bid. As the company's shares are expected to be delisted through this tender offer bid and the subsequent series of procedures, no dividend forecast for FY2026 (ending March 2026) has been disclosed.
ESG
The company endorses the TCFD recommendations and has set targets of a 30% reduction in GHG emissions (Scope 1+2) by FY2030 and carbon neutrality by 2050. On the human capital side, it discloses a female manager ratio of 49.0% (FY2029 target: 60%) and a male childcare leave uptake rate of 71.9% (target: 85%), and is promoting the advancement of diverse talent based on its diversity policy.
