Numerical Targets for 2025
Investment Strategy & Cash Allocation
We will allocate cash earned in operations between activities aimed at generating future growth and appropriate shareholder returns, thus improving shareholder value. We will also use the 2023-2025 plan period for aggressive investment in HR with a view to 2030.

We will continue to strive for a high rate of shareholder returns, such as through ongoing dividend increases and share buybacks.
Human Resource Strategy
