TAKANO CO.,Ltd.

<h3>3. Dividend Policy</h3>
Based on the dividend policy announced on February 9, 2024, the Company considers returning profits to shareholders a key management priority during the medium-term business plan period (fiscal year ending March 2025 through fiscal year ending March 2029). The Company will establish a more stable management foundation and improve return on equity while providing long-term stable profit returns, taking into account business performance progress. The Company targets a consolidated dividend payout ratio of approximately 40% as a guideline.
The Company's basic policy is to pay dividends twice annually—interim dividends and year-end dividends. However, the implementation of interim dividends will be determined as appropriate based on business performance progress.
The Board of Directors is the decision-making body for both interim and year-end dividend distributions.
For the current fiscal year, the Company has decided to pay a dividend of 20 yen per share based on the above policy. As a result, the consolidated dividend payout ratio for the current fiscal year is 58.5%.
The Company intends to use retained earnings effectively to strengthen its management foundation and competitive position, including investments in new product development, rationalization and productivity improvements, replacement of aging equipment to strengthen business continuity planning, and investments in business partnerships and new business development.
The Company's Articles of Incorporation provide that "dividend distributions may be executed by Board of Directors resolution pursuant to Article 459, Paragraph 1 of the Companies Act."
The dividend distribution for the current fiscal year is as follows.

Our basic policy is to provide stable, long-term returns to shareholders. During our medium-term management plan period, we target a consolidated dividend payout ratio of approximately 40%. We distribute dividends twice annually as a general rule, though interim dividends are determined based on business performance. Retained earnings are allocated to strengthen our business foundation through investments in new product development and equipment upgrades.
