(2) Reason for difference <\/p>\n
Although the current business environment remained challenging, mainly due to soaring raw material prices and rising ocean freight rates caused by a shortage of containers, net sales, operating income, and ordinary income exceeded the previous fiscal year's figures due to strong demand for tires, especially in the North American market, a weaker yen, and the effect of cost reductions. <\/p>\n
In addition, the amount of provision for product compensation, product compensation expenses, and loss on valuation of stocks of subsidiaries and affiliates under extraordinary loss was lower than the previous fiscal year's level. As a result, net income for the fiscal year under review exceeded the previous fiscal year's level. <\/p>\n

(2) Reason <\/p>\n
We consider the return of profits to our shareholders as a critical management issue, and have been paying stable dividends every fiscal year. In the future, we will continue to meet the expectations of our shareholders by linking dividends to our business performance while maintaining our financial soundness and adhering to this policy of stable dividends. <\/p>\n
While we are considering setting a consolidated dividend payout ratio of more than 30% during the period of our medium-term management plan, \"Mid-term ''21 Plan\" (FY2021-FY2025), we will achieve a stable and performance-linked return of profits by adjusting non-recurring and special gains and losses included in net income and linking the ratio more closely to the Company's profitability. <\/p>\n
The Company has decided to pay a year-end dividend of 56 yen per share for the fiscal year under review. As a result, the annual dividend for the current fiscal year will be 76 yen per share (dividend payout ratio 28.3%). <\/p>\n
This matter is scheduled to be discussed at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders to be held on March 25, 2022. <\/p>\n

3. Abolition of shareholder special benefit plan <\/p>\n
(1) Reason for abolition <\/p>\n
We have been implementing the shareholder special benefit plan to show our gratitude to our shareholders for their daily support and to increase the attractiveness of our shares so that more people will hold our shares over the medium to long term. <\/p>\n
However, as a result of careful discussions from the perspective of a fair return of profits to our shareholders, we have decided to concentrate on returning profits through dividends and abolish the shareholder special benefit plan. <\/p>\n
We will continue to position the return of profits to our shareholders as a critical management issue and work to enhance our corporate value, and we appreciate your understanding in this matter. <\/p>\n
(2) Timing of abolition <\/p>\n
The Company will discontinue the shareholder special benefit plan after its implementation for shareholders who hold 100 shares (one unit) or more as recorded in the Company's shareholder registry as of December 31, 2021. <\/p>\n
