Return to Shareholders

In Shinwa's Group, redistribution of profits to shareholders is positioned as an important task in business management.

Basic principle on dividends

Based on our basic policy to secure internal reserves required for stable corporate growth in the future and respond to changes in the business environment, and carry out profit re-distribution according to

business performance, we are aiming for

a consolidated dividend payment ratio of 40% or more.

Estimated dividend for FY2020

We are planning to pay the dividend below to take into consideration the potential impact of the COVID- 19 pandemic on our business performance for FY2020 and to nonetheless stick to the "dividend payment ratio of 40% or more" principle.

23.00 yen per share (payout ratio: 40.7%)

The above is subject to change depending on the future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, the economic condition, and our business performance.

Use of internal reserves

For internal reserves, we are planning to reinforce our financial structure, and use internal reserves as effective investment funds such as facility investments and toward personnel development for further expanding our business, with the aim to enhance corporate value.
