2. Reason for the dividend amount

TMC deems the benefit of its shareholders as one of its priority management policies, and it continues to work to improve its corporate structure to realize sustainable growth in order to enhance its corporate value.

TMC will strive for the stable and continuous payment of dividends aiming at a consolidated payout ratio of 30% to shareholders of common stock while giving due consideration to factors such as business results for each term, investment plans and its cash reserves. In addition, TMC will pay a prescribed amount of dividends to shareholders of First Series Model AA Class Shares.

In order to survive tough competition, TMC will utilize its internal funds mainly for the early commercialization of technologies for next-generation environment and safety, giving priority to customer safety and security.

Considering these factors, with respect to the dividends for this consolidated fiscal year, TMC has determined to pay a year-end dividend of 110 yen per common share and as a result, the annual dividend will be 210 yen per common share when combined with the interim dividend of 100 yen per common share.

In addition, TMC has determined to pay a year-end dividend of 52.50 yen per First Series Model AA Class Share in accordance with a prescribed calculation method and as a result, the annual dividend will be 105 yen per share when combined with the interim dividend of 52.50 yen per share.
