Reasons
The annual dividend per share for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, in accordance with the current policy, is established at the higher of the amount calculated by dividing 33% of consolidated operating profit for the fiscal year by the total number of outstanding shares, excluding treasury shares, as of the end of the fiscal year rounded up to the 10 yen digit, or the amount calculated based on the 50% consolidated payout ratio rounded up to the 10 yen digit.
Based on the results announced in “Consolidated Financial Statements” released on April 26, 2018, the annual dividend per share and the year-end dividend per share for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 are going to be 590 yen and 480 yen correspondingly.
