AIT CORPORATION [9381.T]
TOKYO, Jan 14 (Pulse News Wire) -- AIT Corporation (9381.T), represented by Chairman and CEO Eiichi Yakura, announced today that it has revised its forecast for the final dividend payment for the fiscal year ending February 2026. The company made this decision based on Article 370 of the Companies Act and Article 25 of its articles of incorporation, which allows for the omission of certain resolutions under the board's discretion.
The previous forecast, released on April 14, 2025, projected an annual dividend payout of ¥90 per share for the final dividend period. However, after reassessing the company’s performance and future prospects, AIT now expects to increase the final dividend to ¥100 per share. This brings the total annual dividend forecast up from ¥90 to ¥105 per share, including the interim dividend of ¥55 per share previously announced. For comparison, the actual dividends paid out in the last fiscal year were ¥80 per share, split evenly between interim and final payments.
AIT cited several factors contributing to this upward revision. The company places significant importance on returning profits to shareholders as part of its core business strategy. It aims to do so consistently while also maintaining robust internal reserves to support ongoing domestic and international expansion plans. After careful consideration of the current progress towards achieving these goals, along with the overall financial health of the company, AIT decided to enhance shareholder returns through increased dividend payouts. This move reflects the company's commitment to meeting and exceeding shareholder expectations.
