Gakujo ＜2301＞ announced revisions to dividend forecasts for surplus funds on the 9th.

The year-end dividend with 2024/10/31 as the reference date will be 39 yen, an increase of 13 yen from the most recent forecast dividend of 26 yen per share.

The total amount of dividends is 0.533 billion yen, and the effective date is 2025/1/27.

In order to maximize corporate value, the company's basic policy is to give top priority to business expansion and business development investments such as new business development and human resource development, etc., which are essential for future business expansion, and ensure internal reserves.

However, it is thought that surplus funds after securing internal reserves for that purpose will be returned to shareholders as much as possible, taking into account the state of cash flow.

Business results for the fiscal year ending 2024/10 are strong, and dividends will be increased in order to respond to daily support to shareholders.
