Our group continually verifies the allocation status of management resources by the Board of Directors to consistently maintain profitability exceeding our shareholders' cost of capital. As a critical medium-term KPI, we have set "Adjusted EPS of 40 yen or higher," and we will prioritize allocation of investment resources to enhance human capital and growth domains in existing and new businesses to achieve this target. Regarding shareholder returns, we have clarified as our policy to adopt the higher of either a dividend payout ratio of 50% of adjusted EPS or DOE of 5%, thereby implementing stable and sustainable returns while aiming for further enhancement of corporate value. Moving forward, through dialogue with all stakeholders, we will strengthen monitoring of capital costs and capital profitability, and pursue optimal capital allocation supporting sustainable growth.
