Shareholder benefits / dividends

At BIKE O & COMPANY, we determine our internal reserves and distribution of profits in light of future business implementation as we work on strengthening our financial standing while continually increasing our corporate value.

We direct our internal reserves into funding the reinforcement of our business foundation for more efficient management in the future, further streamlining business operations as we boost sales with new store openings, and pursuing investment strategies leading to system maintenance and stronger future business operations, which is a departure from our previous advancement of a financial foundation largely dependent upon borrowing. Regarding dividend distribution, we set dividend amounts upon considering business performance and other factors, keeping mindful of the need to distribute dividends stably.
