Shareholder Return / Dividends
Basic Policy on Profit Allocation
Our firm recognizes that one crucial issue for its management is simultaneously securing competitiveness in our business lines and returning profits to our shareholders. However, when establishing new businesses to increase our corporate value, we will prioritize investment in businesses.
Status of Dividends
In FY2020, we were able to cover the deficit through a capital reduction and realize a plan for shareholder return. However, as a result of comprehensively considering our financial situation and other factors, we regret to say that we have decided not to pay any dividends.
At the same time, in November 2020, we acquired treasury stock totaling 153 million yen as a shareholder return.
Regarding dividends from the next fiscal year onward, we will strive to realize an early dividend return while taking into consideration the balance with the investment required for growth.
