Operating Revenue
In the Personal Services segment, mobile communications revenues increased, along with sales for services in the life design business such as 'au Denki' and 'au WALLET Market.' In the Value Services segment, value-added ARPA revenues increased, along with a boost to sales from the consolidation of Jupiter Shop Channel Co., Ltd. As a result, consolidated operating revenue rose 6.3% year on year to ¥4,748.3 billion.
Operating Income
Consolidated operating income rose 9.7% year on year to ¥913.0 billion. In addition to increases in mobile communications revenues and value-added ARPA revenues, the impact of a reduction in handset procurement cost and other effects absorbed impairment losses on certain idle assets related to 3G services and increases in outsourcing expenses, among others.
Profit for the Year Attributable to Owners of the Parent
The higher consolidated operating income absorbed an increase in profit for the year attributable to non-controlling interests and other non-operating losses due to the liquidation of certain unprofitable overseas operations. As a result, profit for the year attributable to owners of the parent rose 10.5% year on year to ¥546.7 billion.
Dividends per Share
We awarded full-year dividends per share of ¥85, up ¥15 year on year, amounting to a consolidated dividend payout ratio of 38.3%. Our dividend policy is to maintain the consolidated dividend payout ratio at a level above 35% while taking into consideration the investments necessary to achieve growth and ensure stable business operations, and we plan to continue raising dividends through synergy between a higher consolidated dividend payout ratio and increasing earnings per share in line with higher operating income.
