TOKYO, Feb 13 (Pulse News Wire) -- Aitel Corporation (444A.T), led by President Sho Nagata, announced on Monday that it has revised its dividend forecast for the fiscal year ending December 2025. The company's board of directors, which met on February 13, decided to set the final dividend per share at ¥94.00, up from an earlier undecided figure.

The revised annual dividend distribution is as follows: no interim dividend was planned, while the final dividend stands at ¥94.00 per share, bringing the total annual dividend to ¥94.00. This contrasts with the previous fiscal year when the company paid a final dividend of ¥1.88 per share, totaling ¥1.88 annually. For the current fiscal year, the company reported no interim dividends and had not previously disclosed any plans for a final dividend.

In explaining the revision, Aitel stated that ensuring stable revenue foundations and preparing for future business expansion requires maintaining internal reserves while consistently returning profits to shareholders. The company aims to strengthen its capital base through retained earnings, investing in existing business growth and new ventures related to core operations. Based on this strategy, Aitel targets a dividend payout ratio of around 30%, adjusting the actual dividend amount flexibly according to overall profitability, past surplus funds, and future strategic needs.

Kazunori Shikohara, Senior Managing Director and Head of Management Division, emphasized that the decision reflects the company’s commitment to balancing shareholder returns with long-term investment opportunities. However, he noted that the forecast remains subject to various factors that could affect the final outcome. Investors should be aware that actual dividends may differ from the projected figures due to unforeseen circumstances.
