Hirose Electric has resolved to increase its year-end dividend for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, raising the payout to 260 yen per share from the previously planned 245 yen, with a total dividend outlay of 8,527 million yen funded from retained earnings. This adjustment, subject to shareholder approval in June 2026, lifts the full-year dividend to 505 yen per share and reflects the company’s strengthened commitment to shareholder returns under its 5% dividend-on-equity target, signaling a more shareholder-friendly capital policy that may enhance its appeal to income-focused investors.

By explicitly tying the payout to its DOE target and revising the dividend above its earlier forecast, Hirose Electric underscores a disciplined yet progressive approach to capital allocation that could support its market valuation and reinforce its positioning among Japanese electronics component makers emphasizing shareholder value.
