Financial results meeting, business performance, and dividends

We usually hold a meeting on full-year financial results of the previous fiscal year in May each year. As for the current fiscal year, we release financial results on a quarterly basis. Dates of such meetings and releases are announced in the IR Calendar page as soon as they are fixed.

We send a year-end financial report (as of March 31 of the previous fiscal year) to our shareholders, together with a convocation notice of the ordinary general meeting of shareholders in June. We also send a report on our half-year earnings (as of September 30 of the current fiscal year) at around the end of November to those who are our shareholders as of the end of the first half (September 30).

We make dividend payments after the closing of the ordinary general meeting of shareholders in June and at the time of reporting half-year earnings around the end of November. You can receive dividends over the counter at a Japan Post Bank or a post office by presenting a Dividend Receipt, which will be mailed to you together with our business performance report. You can also choose to receive dividends through transfer to a bank account.
