Note:<\/p>\n

\n1. As detailed in the March 6, 2024 announcement entitled "Notice Regarding Stock Split and Associated Partial Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation," Capcom will implement a stock split in which each share of common stock will be split into two shares with an effective date of April 1, 2024; however, the year-end dividend for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024 will be paid on the basis of the number of shares prior to the stock split.<\/p>\n

2. The year-end dividend of ¥40 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 includes a ¥30 40th anniversary commemorative dividend of ¥10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ii. Reason<\/h5>\n\n

Capcom management sees returning profits to shareholders as an issue of the utmost importance; thus, with consideration given to future business developments and changes in the management environment, we strive to pay stable dividends with a consolidated dividend payout ratio of 30% as our basic policy.<\/p>\n\n

Based on the above-stated policy and in consideration of having secured both the necessary investment for enhancing corporate value as well as a healthy financial position, from the perspective of shareholder returns based on cash flow, we have decided to increase the year-end dividend forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024 by ¥11 per share compared to the ¥27 per share amount of the previous forecast, resulting in a dividend of ¥38 per share.<\/p>\n\n

With this change, and together with the interim dividend (¥27 per share), the full-year dividend will be ¥65 per share.<\/p>\n\n

This matter is scheduled to be brought up for resolution at the 45th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders, scheduled to convene in June 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n

Note: The dividend forecast in this document is based on information available as of the date of this announcement, and actual dividends may differ from the forecast due to various factors.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
