Dividend Policy
JBS positions that returning profits to our shareholders is one of our important business policies.
We aim to achieve stable dividend payments while considering various factors such as our financial condition, profit levels, and the need to strengthen internal reserves for the stability and further expansion of our business foundation.
Additionally, in order to enhance the opportunities for profit distribution to our shareholders, we have decided to introduce interim dividends starting from the fiscal year ending September 2023. Our policy will be to distribute surplus funds twice a year, in addition to the annual year-end dividend.
