Transaction announces strong dividend, strategic entertainment push, leadership changes
Transaction Co., Ltd. announced a final dividend of 57.00 yen per share for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2025, marking its 14th consecutive annual dividend increase. This decision, approved on October 23, 2025, reflects strong consolidated results and follows a 2-for-1 stock split effective September 1, 2025. The company also revised its dividend policy, targeting a payout ratio of 40% or more with a lower limit of 7.0% dividend on equity to further enhance shareholder returns.
In a strategic move, Transaction will amend its articles of incorporation to include "Investment in limited liability partnerships and production committees, etc." to facilitate its full-scale entry into entertainment (IP) business, aiming for growth through capital and business alliances. This change will be proposed at the annual general meeting of shareholders on November 27, 2025.
Concurrently, the company revealed executive appointments, effective November 27, 2025, including Satoshi Ishikawa as chairman and representative director, Keiichi Chiba as president and representative director, and the appointment of Yukiko Iguchi as a new outside director (audit and supervisory committee member). Additionally, Transaction is revising its restricted stock compensation plan for directors, and introducing a similar plan for employees and subsidiary directors/employees, to align incentives with its medium-term growth objectives.
