| 1. | Reason for Revision of Dividend Forecast | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company's dividend policy takes into consideration the stable distribution of dividends, enhancement of internal reserves, and foreseeable cash flow requirements, with dividends being determined based on the Company's earnings position viewed over the medium term. On the basis of this policy, and considering the sound performance for the fiscal year ended December 2006, the Company has resolved to upwardly revise its forecast for the year-end dividend from ¥3 to ¥4 per share in order to reward shareholders for their continued support. |
