Measures to achieve ROE of 8% or more

We aim to achieve an ROE of 8% or more by increasing profits (R) and reducing equity capital (E).

Improvement in R: Operating profit (FY2023-FY2027)

By optimizing the business portfolio
Aiming for operating profit of 65 billion yen

Compression of E: Equity capital (cumulative total for fiscal years 2023 to 2027)

Strengthening shareholder returns, etc.
Aiming for equity capital of 600 billion yen

  • Dividends for fiscal years 2026-2027 are estimated as an extension of the fiscal year 2025 level, but will be determined based on actual profits and taking into account our dividend policy.

  • As the current increase in sales is due in part to the impact of exchange rate fluctuations and the pass-on of rising energy prices to sales prices, the sales targets for fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2030 have been left unchanged.
  • Dividends for fiscal years 2026-2027 are estimated as an extension of the fiscal year 2025 level, but will be determined based on actual profits and taking into account our dividend policy.
