For FY2025 (ended June 2025), a year-end dividend of ¥3 per share was paid (no interim dividend; total of ¥3 per share for the year). For FY2026 (ending June 2026), no dividend is forecast at the second-quarter-end, with a year-end dividend of ¥3 per share forecast (total of ¥3 per share for the year), unchanged from the most recently announced forecast.
ESG
Centered on 'succession of handicraft culture,' the group works on reducing environmental impact (introduction of organic cotton and recycled fiber materials, upcycling of waste materials), ensuring workforce diversity (Toukai's disability employment rate of 3.67%, Nihon Vogue's female manager ratio of 31.6%), and coexistence with local communities. Group-wide quantitative indicators and targets have not been established, and no dedicated sustainability organization has been set up. At Toukai, the target is a female manager ratio of 30% or more and a male childcare leave uptake rate of 50% or more by the end of March 2029; the female manager ratio for the fiscal year under review was 17.0%.
