Sharp to receive special dividend from sensing technology subsidiary

Sharp Corporation announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Sharp Sensing Technology Corporation, has determined to issue a special dividend. This dividend, totaling 29,345 million yen, is scheduled to become effective on December 23, 2025.

Sharp expects to recognize this special dividend as non-operating income in its non-consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026. However, as the dividend originates from a consolidated subsidiary, it will not impact Sharp's consolidated financial results for the same fiscal year.

The company, led by representative director Masahiro Okitsu, disclosed this information.
