Shareholders return policy

During the "Challenge 1000" long-term vision to fiscal year 2030, we aim to achieve a total payout ratio of 50%, based on consolidated financial results.

※Total payout ratio = (Total Dividends+Share Repurchases) ÷ Profit attributable to owners of parent×100                   

※The acquisition of treasury stock will be implemented flexibly in consideration of the company's share price.
