Notice Regarding Dividends from Retained Earnings

Capcom Co., Ltd. announces that at the Board of Directors meeting held today, it has approved the following distribution of dividends from retained earnings of the year ended March 31, 2020.

1. Dividend allocation

2. Reason

Capcom management sees returning profits to shareholders as an issue of the utmost importance; thus, with consideration given to future business developments and changes in the management environment, we strive to pay stable dividends with a consolidated dividend payout ratio of 30% as our basic policy. This fiscal year, because operating income, ordinary income and net income attributable to owners of the parent were all expected to exceed the prior business forecast due to contributions of hit title Monster Hunter World: Iceborne and high-margin digital download sales, Capcom announced a revision to its consolidated full-year business forecast on February 4, 2020.

In considering that following this announcement Capcom’s business performance continued to be strong, with all profitability items achieving record highs, and based on the above-stated policy, we have decided to increase the year-end dividend for the year ended March 31, 2020 by ¥5 per share, for a dividend of ¥25 per share. With this change, and together with the interim dividend (¥20 per share), the full-year dividend will be ¥45 per share, with a consolidated dividend payout ratio of 30.1%.
