Profit Distribution Policies
The Seikagaku Group sees improving shareholder value as an important business issue. In March 2006, we introduced a performance-based dividend policy with an emphasis on dividend payout ratio to better clarify our commitment to returning profits to shareholders. Under this policy, we seek to maintain or improve a dividend payout of 30% (on a consolidated basis) based on ¥20 per share annually.
