Shareholder Returns and Dividends
Shareholder Returns and Dividends Policy
Our company considers the return of profits to shareholders to be an important management issue.
From 2023 to 2025, we will implement Shareholder Returns and Dividends with a total return ratio of 50% or more based on the three-year cumulative net income excluding inventory effects, with a minimum dividend of 36 yen per share. We will carry out share buybacks in a flexible manner, keeping stock price levels in mind.
