Additionally, demand for high-performance semiconductors tied to generative AI applications continues to expand, driving increased investment in cutting-edge memory production.
The company has also raised its dividend guidance substantially. The interim dividend is now set at JPY 86.00 per share (from JPY 48.00), while the year-end dividend is projected at JPY 90.00 (versus JPY 57.00), bringing the full-year payout to JPY 176.00 per share. This reflects management’s 80% dividend payout ratio policy and signals confidence in sustained earnings momentum. The revision underscores improving operational leverage and a strengthened commitment to shareholder returns.
