(Reasons for revision)
Considering the business performance of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, the term-end dividend shall be 45.00 yen per share, which is the sum of 35.00 yen of ordinary dividend, adding 6.00 yen to the most recent forecast of 29.00 yen, and 10.00 yen of the company’s 30th anniversary commemorative dividend, expressing our deepest appreciation to our shareholders for their constant support. As a result, the annual dividend combined with the end of the second quarter dividend is scheduled to be 50.00 yen, which will be the highest ever paid. Although the dividend payout ratio is 10.7%, which is below our target of 30%, we will endeavor to return profits to our shareholders by providing continuous and stable dividends in the following fiscal year and beyond and acquiring own shares, while retaining funds to make upfront investments for further growth in the healthcare business arena.
