Notice of FAST RETAILING CO., LTD. (the "Company") regarding
the Company's Revision to its Dividend Estimate for the Year Ending August 31, 2024
At the executive board meeting of the Company held on July 11, 2024, the Company decided to revise its dividend per share estimate for the year ending August 31, 2024. The decision is detailed below.
1. Reasons for the dividend forecast revision
Based on the recent upward revisions in consolidated business estimates for the year ending August 31, 2024, the Company has revised its year-end dividend per share estimate from 175.00 yen to 225.00 yen. Consequently, the estimated total dividend per share has been revised from 350.00 yen to 400.00 yen.
2. Dividend revision
*Our common stock has been split on a 3-to-1 basis, effective from March 1, 2023. The year-end dividend per share for the fiscal year ended 31 August 2023 is listed in the amount that takes the stock split into consideration, and the total dividend per share is listed as "―". Assuming that the stock split was conducted at the beginning of the previous fiscal year, the dividend per share at the end of the second quarter of the fiscal year ended August 31, 2023 would be 125.00 yen and the total dividend would be 290.00 yen.
