| Year-end Dividend (per share) | JPY 65.00 | JPY 75.00 | +JPY 10.00 (+15.4%) |

The company resolved to implement a 110th Anniversary Commemorative Dividend of JPY 10.00 per share as an add-on to the year-end dividend payment. The interim dividend remains unchanged at JPY 65.00 per share. The commemorative special dividend reflects management’s expression of gratitude to shareholders as the company marks a significant corporate milestone on April 18, 2026.
The revision underscores Hosokawa Micron’s commitment to enhanced shareholder returns during a landmark year. Investors should note that the commemorative dividend is a one-time special payment and does not represent a change to the company’s ordinary dividend policy, which remains at JPY 130.00 per share on an ongoing basis. The full-year payout of JPY 140.00 per share should not be extrapolated as the new baseline for future distributions.
