2. Reason
Fuji Electric pays dividends in accordance with the basic policy of making stable and continuous payments based on a medium- to long-term perspective toward business management. By taking into account the Company's outlook for business results, its financial position, and other such factors, the Company has decided to pay an interim dividend of ¥4 per share in the current fiscal year. Further, due to the unclear management environment predicted for the second half of the fiscal year, the Company has postponed decisions regarding the annual dividend.
