Policy for Returning Profit

We consider profit distribution to shareholders to be high priority for our business activities and settle our principle to distribute earnings corresponding to fiscal year end results. We intend to improve the net assets in order to reinforce our financial and operational fundamentals and also implement fiscal year end profit distribution according to 50% dividend payout ratio. Profit distribution at the end of financial year is only scheduled at present, and interim dividends will not be realized.

Due to the above mentioned basic policy, we decided to pay the ordinary dividend amounting to 8 JPYen per share after financial closing at the end of September 2011, decreased by 15 JPYen comparing to the last financial year.

With regard to the use of retained earnings, we are planning to make an investment in R&D and manufacturing facilities to develop new innovative products for our further business progress from a mid-term point of view.

As for dividend as of September 2012, we intend to maintain 50% of dividend payout ratio with the expected amount of 11 JPYen per share, increasing 3 JPYen comparison with the previous fiscal year.
