Turning now to our full-year dividend guidance.
While we have revised down our full-year forecasts, we reiterate our year-end dividend guidance of ¥42 per share. We have already paid an interim dividend of ¥42; on a full-year basis, we are guiding for a dividend of ¥84 per share.
We will continue to aim for a stable and sustainable dividend.
With regard to the share repurchase program of ¥20 bn announced in July, we continue to buy back shares. As of the end of December, we have bought back a total of ¥13.1 bn in shares.
