Shareholder Returns

Shareholder Return Policy

In capital policy, it is important to improve capital efficiency while ensuring financial stability, and our basic policy is to strike a balance between these two goals while implementing optimal investment, shareholder returns, etc., and increasing corporate value over the medium to long term through management that is conscious of the cost of capital and stock price. Specifically, our basic policy is as follows

  • We aim to maintain stable dividend payments with a target DOE (dividend on equity ratio) of 8%.
    This is equivalent to maintaining an ROE (return on equity) of 18% or more and achieving dividend payout ratio of 45%.
  • We give preference to investments but will flexibly repurchase treasury stocks if there are no substantial cash outflows related to such investments.
  • Under Mid-Term Management Plan 2027, we aim for total shareholder returns (total of dividends and repurchase of treasury stocks) of ¥125 billion, considering the planned operating cash flow.
