Returns to Shareholders
デュエルビッツ 入金方法el places a high priority on returning profits to shareholders, and is committed to increasing its overall corporate value by pursuing business operations from a medium- and long-term perspective. The distribution of profits is decided comprehensively on the basis of various factors, including the company's current financial condition; trends in business performance; and future demand for capital. Dividends are determined with an eye toward achieving continuous and stable distribution, taking into consideration such factors as each period's business results and the payout ratio. For internal reserve funds, we strive to improve profitability by ensuring adequate investment for future growth and make ongoing efforts to improve and strengthen our financial structure. For the foreseeable future, we will distribute profits in accordance with our business results, targeting a dividend payout ratio of 15% to 25% of our consolidated net profit. Surplus funds are distributed according to our Articles of Incorporation, which are determined by the Board of Directors on the basis of Company Law 459, Article 1, and Company Law 460, Article 1. Accordingly, dividends are in principle paid out by Board order twice a year, at the end of the first and second terms, as stipulated by the Articles of Incorporation. For dividends to be paid out on any other date, the date must be designated separately by the Board. |

Information Disclosure
To maintain the trust and support of shareholders and investors over the long term we take very seriously our responsibility to provide information, and are working hard to make timely and appropriate disclosures of corporate information and financial data. Information disclosure is made in strict observance of statutory disclosure standards and based on stock exchange rules for the timing of disclosures. It is our aim to have the company's business conditions and activities widely understood for an accurate appraisal of corporate value, through the active, prompt and ongoing issuing of disclosable information relevant to investment decisions, even in cases where the timing rules do not apply. |

Communicating with Shareholders and Investors
Communicating with Shareholders
Shareholders' meetings are seen as the forum for direct communication with shareholders. To encourage as many as possible to attend, we send out invitations well in advance and choose dates that do not conflict with other major shareholders' meetings. Shareholders are able to vote via the Internet (including cell phones). To help shareholders deepen their understanding of the デュエルビッツ 入金方法el Group, we also initiated factory tours in fiscal 2007. To date, we have organized tours of our iron and steel operations at the Kakogawa Works, our aluminum operations at the Moka Plant and our manufacturing operations at the Takasago Works, including steel castings and forgings and industrial machinery. Other tours will be held at various locations in the future. |

Communicating with Institutional Investors
Briefings on financial results are held four times a year for institutional investors and securities analysts in Japan, to give them a better understanding of our management policies, operating results and financial position. We also organize individual consultation sessions and make every effort to maintain ongoing communication with institutional investors and securities analysts, both at home and overseas. |
Communication with Individual Investors
Through the デュエルビッツ 入金方法el website (www.kobelco.com), we place our financial statements, annual reports and other information online for individual investors. This Sustainability Report is available on the Environmental Management site for widespread availability. In fiscal 2007, we also began publishing Japanese quarterly reports in postcard form and began sponsoring explanatory meetings aimed at individual investors in an effort to further deepen public understanding of the デュエルビッツ 入金方法el Group. |
