<h3>3. Dividend Policy</h3>
Our Group recognizes returning profits to shareholders as an important management priority. However, we believe that the greatest benefit to shareholders comes from strengthening our financial position and building sufficient internal reserves for business expansion, which we will allocate to investments that enhance our earning capacity.
Accordingly, we have not implemented dividends during this fiscal year, consistent with this policy. Since our founding, we have not paid dividends, and our current policy is to build up internal reserves to enable flexible and effective investments going forward.
We are considering allocating internal reserves to strengthen our financial position, invest in and develop our workforce, build revenue foundations, develop new AI solutions, and diversify revenue through initiatives with new industries and companies.
As a result of these investments, we aim to realize long-term improvements in shareholder value through business growth and improved capital efficiency. We intend to implement stable and continuous dividend distributions to shareholders after considering our business performance, financial condition, and business environment. However, the possibility and timing of dividend implementation remain undetermined at this time.
Our Articles of Incorporation provide for dividend distributions as interim and year-end dividends. Our basic policy is to implement year-end dividends once annually when dividends are paid. The Board of Directors has authority over dividend decisions.

For the time being, we are focusing on building up internal reserves to fund strategic and effective investments. At this time, the timing and feasibility of dividend payments remain undecided. Internal reserves will be allocated to strengthening our financial position, investing in human capital, and developing new AI solutions. In the future, we aim to implement stable and sustainable dividends based on our business performance and financial condition. Should we implement dividends, our basic policy is to pay once annually as a year-end dividend.
