<h3>3. Dividend Policy</h3>

The Company recognizes appropriate profit returns to shareholders as one of its most important management priorities. We are committed to maintaining stable dividends based on a long-term perspective while building internal reserves to strengthen our operational foundation.


For the current and next fiscal periods, we plan to pay a dividend of 20 yen per share, consistent with our established policy.


This will mark the 21st consecutive year of paying a regular dividend of 20 yen per share.

As a result, the dividend payout ratio for this fiscal year is expected to be 10.4%, the return on equity 9.9%, and the dividend yield on net assets 1.0%.
Under the provisions of Article 454, Paragraph 5 of the Companies Act, the Company's Articles of Incorporation authorize the Board of Directors to pay interim dividends with a record date of September 30 each year. The decision-making authority for dividend distributions is the shareholders' meeting for year-end dividends and the Board of Directors for interim dividends.
Retained earnings will be used as reserves to respond to future changes in the business environment and to support business initiatives aimed at improving performance.

The dividend distribution proposed as an agenda item at the ordinary shareholders' meeting scheduled for June 24, 2016 is as follows:
