GMO Payment Gateway, Inc. places management priority on sustainably securing the necessary retained earnings for the purpose of future business expansion and for strengthening the organization, as well as to sustain a stable level of shareholder returns.
The annual dividend for FY2022 is scheduled to be \160 per share, derived from a ordinary dividend of \79 per share which is \13 higher than initially forecast to reflect that FY2022 earnings were higher than initially expected, and a special dividend of \81 per share to reflect the divestment of all the sahres of the former equity-method affiliate 2C2P Pte. Ltd. and in recognition of 10 years of overseas business expansion as well as to express our gratitude to the support from our shareholders that contributed to the overall earnings growth since GMO-PG's listing.
Based on the strong business plans for the next fiscal year, the annual dividend for FY2023 is forecast at ¥82 per share to raise the medium-to-long term corporate value by enhancing return of profits to shareholders and in keeping with the continued increase in the dividend amount since dividend payouts commenced.
