Gatechnologies announces inaugural dividend, executive pay rise

Gatechnologies announced its first-ever dividend payment, with a record date of October 31, 2025, and an effective date of January 30, 2026. Shareholders will receive 8.00 yen per share, totaling 328 million yen from retained earnings, reflecting the company’s commitment to shareholder returns after a period of growth-focused investment.

The company plans to amend its Articles of Incorporation, shifting the annual general meeting record date from October 31 to November 30 and the interim dividend record date from April 30 to May 31, effective January 29, 2026. This change aims to enhance flexibility in meeting scheduling and improve transparency for shareholders.

Additionally, Gatechnologies is proposing to increase the annual remuneration cap for stock options for eligible directors from 100 million yen to 200 million yen, while maintaining a maximum issuance of 500 share acquisition rights per year. These proposals will be put to a shareholder vote at the 13th Annual General Meeting on January 29, 2026.
