Basic Policy on Shareholder Returns

Dividend levels not only reflect consolidated performance trends, but also are to be determined based on the consideration of such factors as the level of funds required for increasing the Company’s corporate value in the future, including M&A transactions, capital investment and new product development investments needed to support priority business expansion. Adequate buybacks will be undertaken considering the situation of cash flows and stock prices. The Company has the policy on shareholder returns that puts emphasis on cash dividends, targeting the dividend payout ratio of 30%.
