Mimaki Engineering revises upward its dividend forecast

Mimaki Engineering announced today that its Board of Directors has resolved to revise its dividend forecast. The company now expects to pay a year-end dividend of ¥52.50 per share, an increase of ¥20.00 from the previous forecast of ¥32.50. This includes an ordinary dividend of ¥42.50 and a special dividend of ¥10.00. The revision reflects the company's improved earnings outlook and its commitment to shareholder returns. The company also cited the earlier-than-expected achievement of its 10% operating profit margin target outlined in its medium- to long-term growth strategy "Mimaki V10" as a factor in the special dividend decision, as well as to express its gratitude to shareholders for their support. The record date for the dividend has not been specified in the announcement.
