6.Shareholder Returns
We aim for direct profit returns and a share price increase in the medium to long term.
The Company aims to realize comprehensive returns based on direct profit returns and a share price increase on medium- and long-term bases.
The Company attaches the highest priority to strategic investments for sustainable growth. As a basic policy, the Company aims to raise the efficiency of invested capital and increase dividends and the share price in the medium and long terms while seeking to maximize corporate value.
We plan for stable dividend payments.
With regard to dividends, although a stable dividend payout remains our first priority, in consideration of changes in business performance owing to the distinctive characteristics of our business operations, as of FY2019 we have also begun to pay stable, long-term, continuous returns with a target dividend on equity (DOE) ratio of 2.0% as an easily understandable indicator of those changes. In FY2023, we paid the annual dividend of 35 yen per share based on the policy above, despite the significant impact of COVID-19. For FY2024, we also plan to pay the annual dividend of 40 per share (*) although the outlook for financial results is slightly more challenging than in the past.

On April 1, 2016, we conducted a 2-for-1 share split of our common stock. For FY2015 and earlier, the dividend per share is shown by taking the share split into account for convenience.
