  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, development of 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 ¥6.00 per share for fiscal 2016.
