Sumco Corporation decided to revise its dividend forecast for fiscal year 2024 at the board of directors' meeting held on May 9, 2024. The amount of interim dividend per share for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 had been undecided. However, the interim dividend is expected to be JPY 10 per share, based on an overall consideration of the profit forecast in the first half of fiscal year 2024, the outlook for the second half and beyond, funding needs for capital investment, the status of internal reserves, and other factors.

At this time, the year-end dividend for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 is not determined. The company paid JPY 42.00 per share for the year ended December 31, 2023.
