Dividends are paid twice a year: an interim dividend (resolved by the Board of Directors) and a year-end dividend (resolved by the General Meeting of Shareholders). For FY2026 (ending March 2026), the annual dividend per share is ¥30 (interim ¥15 + year-end ¥15), with total dividends of ¥693 million and a payout ratio of 33.4%. The forecast for FY2027 (ending March 2027) is the same amount of ¥30 (payout ratio of 30.0%).
