Goals: dividend payout ratio of at least 20% and dividends on equity of 2%

OMRON considers investments in the form of R&D and capital expenditures to be essential for expansion of business. Therefore, OMRON's earnings distribution policy is based on securing internal capital resources for investments to promote growth, and distributing any surplus to shareholders to the maximum extent possible.

As for annual dividends, OMRON's near-term goals are to maintain a minimum dividend payout ratio of 20% and dividends on equity (DOE*) of 2%.

OMRON will utilize retained earnings accumulated over a long period of time to repurchase and retire the company's stock, or in other ways to benefit shareholders.

* Dividends on equity (DOE) = Return on equity (ROE) x Dividend payout ratio
