The company attributed the upward revision to improved funding profits at Sanju San Bank, its core subsidiary. Full-year net profit guidance was raised from JPY 15.0bn to JPY 17.0bn. The year-end dividend increases by JPY 6.00 per share to JPY 28.00, while the interim dividend remains flat at JPY 22.00, bringing the full-year payout to JPY 50.00 per share from JPY 44.00.
The revision reflects management’s commitment to shareholder returns while maintaining its stable dividend base of JPY 18.00 per share. The 13.6% increase in annual dividends demonstrates confidence in sustained earnings growth, with ordinary income (keijo rieki)—a Japan-specific metric combining operating and non-operating results—projected to rise 14.5% year-on-year.
