Shareholder Returns
Shareholder Returns of the Seventh Mid-Term Management Plan
Sekisui House regards the maximization of shareholder value as one of the most important management tasks. We therefore strive to increase earnings per share and will also seek to make investment for growth and enhance shareholder returns, taking into comprehensive account the status of profits and cash flows in each fiscal year and future business development, among other factors.
We will maintain our existing policy of a medium-term average dividend payout ratio of 40% or higher, aiming for dividend increases through profit growth. Furthermore, we will set a minimum of 145 yen for annual dividends per share during the period of the Seventh Mid-Term Management Plan. This minimum exceeds the FY2025 dividend (144 yen). We will also take a flexible approach to repurchases of Company stock to enhance shareholder value.
