2. Reason
We intend to return profit gained through business activities to shareholders. At the same time-while maintaining and strengthening our management foundation-we intend to appropriate profit for consolidated shareholders' equity in order to secure internal reserves for research and development, capital investment, human resources, and other investments reflecting a
medium-to-long-term viewpoint. At the same time, the Company aims to provide its shareholders with stable dividend payments on a continuing basis.
Based on this policy, the Company plans to issue a year-end dividend payment of ¥4.00 per share for fiscal 2013.
