TOKYO, Feb 13 (Pulse News Wire) -- GungHo Online Entertainment, Inc. (3765.T), led by President and CEO Ichika Sakai, announced on Monday that it has revised its shareholder return policy and provided an updated forecast for its fiscal year ending December 2025 dividend payout.
The company's board of directors met on February 13, 2026, to decide on the changes to the shareholder return policy. The new policy aims to enhance active returns to shareholders while maintaining stable and continuous operations. As part of this revision, the company plans to introduce a new metric called the Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR) alongside the existing Dividend Payment Ratio (DPR). Under the new guidelines, the DPR will target 4%, and the company intends to maintain a dividend payment ratio of over 50%.
Additionally, the company stated that it would continue to implement flexible share repurchase programs based on market conditions and its own financial status. This approach is designed to improve capital efficiency and support growth investments. The revised policy will be applied starting from the fiscal year ending December 2025.
Furthermore, the company disclosed that it expects to pay a final dividend of ¥90 per share for the fiscal year ending December 2025. This represents a significant increase compared to the previous year’s final dividend of ¥60 per share. The company anticipates making this decision official during its scheduled board meeting on March 30, 2026.
For reference, the company reported no interim dividends for the first three quarters of the current fiscal year, with the total annual dividend expected to be ¥90 per share. In contrast, last year's total dividend was ¥60 per share. These adjustments reflect the company's commitment to balancing capital efficiency with consistent shareholder returns under the newly adopted policies.
