In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, our group’s performance reached a record high with net sales of 27.9 billion yen, up 38.0% from the previous fiscal year, partly due to the acquisition of company K-Nine as a subsidiary. Operating income increased 12.2% to 2.7 billion yen, ordinary income increased 13.4% to 2.4 billion yen, and net income attributable to shareholders of the parent company increased 17.5% to 1.7 billion yen, all record highs compared to the previous year.

We have always considered shareholder returns to be an important management issue, and since the actual net income attributable to shareholders of the parent company for the current fiscal year (ending June 30, 2024) exceeded our most recent earnings forecast (announced on December 22, 2023), we have increased the year-end dividend by 1 yen from the most recent forecast, to 11 yen per share, As a result, we have decided to pay a year-end dividend of 11 yen per share, an increase of 1 yen from our most recent dividend forecast. Combined with the interim dividend of 10 yen per share already paid, the annual dividend for the current fiscal year is 21 yen per share, and we are very pleased to have increased the dividend for the second consecutive fiscal year.

We will strengthen our three policies: (1) further growth through M&A, (2) investment in human capital, and (3) shareholder returns. In terms of human capital investment, the Company will continue to invest in human capital. With regard to human capital investment, we have shifted to a new personnel system starting this fiscal year and have realized a number of measures such as enhancement of the qualification acquisition support system, housing allowances, and a stock benefit trust system for employees. In addition, we will continue to position and strengthen shareholder returns as one of our most important management issues.

As the Group works as one to enhance corporate value, we ask for the continued support of our shareholders.
