Shareholder Returns
No dividend continues for FY2026 (ending August 2026). Annual dividend forecast is ¥0. No change to the policy of prioritizing the accumulation of internal reserves given the company's growth stage.
Dividend Policy
Annual dividend was ¥0 for both FY2025 (ended August 2025) and FY2026 (ending August 2026). The dividend forecast for FY2026 also remains ¥0 (year-end dividend of ¥0), unchanged. The basic policy is to balance dividends, internal reserves, and incentives for officers and employees while comprehensively considering future business development, but as the company is currently in a growth stage requiring the accumulation of internal reserves, it has continued to pay no dividend since its establishment. Going forward, the policy is to decide comprehensively based on business performance, payout ratio, and growth strategy, but the feasibility and timing remain undetermined. If dividends are paid, the basic policy is to pay a year-end dividend once a year, and provisions for an interim dividend are also stipulated in the Articles of Incorporation.
ESG
No sustainability basic policy has been established, and no dedicated governance framework, indicators, or targets have been set. As part of its human capital strategy, the company has stated a policy of pursuing broad-based recruitment activities, including mid-career hires from other industries, but has not set specific indicators or targets.
