Basic Dividend Policy
In order to realize stable dividends while achieving sustainable profit growth and maintaining and improving our financial structure, our basic policy is to pay a "minimum dividend " with an annual dividend of 38 yen (114 yen before share split) as the base dividend.
For the three years from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2027 to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2029, the Company will aim to expand dividends through profit growth and will adopt the higher of either ¥38, which is the minimum annual dividend, or a payout ratio of 70%.
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, the Company has decided to pay an interim dividend of ¥50 per share and a year-end dividend of ¥21 per share, taking into account the stock split announced on October 10, 2025.
- * For details of the stock split, please refer to the website.

* 1. Interim, year-end, and annual dividend figures reflect the impact of the 3-for-1 stock split with a record date of November 30, 2025.
* 2. As figures are rounded down to one decimal place, the sum of the interim dividend and the year-end dividend may not equal the annual dividend.
Special Benefits for Shareholders
To increase the number of long-term shareholders by increasing the appeal of owning QUICK stock, shareholders of record on March 31 of each year who own at least 300 shares (three unit) receive benefits as follows.
| Number of shares held (Shares) | Shareholders with a continuous holding period of less than three years | Shareholders with a continuous holding period of three years or more（Long-term holding preferential treatment system） (* 1, * 2) |

* 1. A shareholder with a continuous holding period of three years or more (long-term holding shareholder) is a shareholder whose number of shares held of 300 shares or more is listed or recorded in the shareholder register on March 31 and September 30 every year, retroactively from March 31 (judgment date), for seven consecutive times or more under the same shareholder number. However, the number of shares held under the shareholder special benefit plan before the change will be applied to the number of shares held before Tuesday, September 30, 2025.
* 2. For shareholders with a continuous holding period of three years or more (long-term holding shareholders), the longterm holding preferential treatment system will be applied according to the number of shares listed or recorded in the shareholder registry on the date of determination, regardless of the number of shares listed or recorded in the shareholder registry prior to the date of determination (provided, however, that shareholders shall hold 100 shares or more prior to Tuesday, September 30, 2025, and 300 shares or more after Tuesday, March 31, 2026).
* 3. Shareholders can apply for one of the five Hokkaido specialty products selected by Quick that is equivalent to 4,000 yen. Shareholders who do not wish to purchase Hokkaido specialty products may apply for a QUO Card worth 4000 yen instead of Hokkaido specialty products. A catalogue of Hokkaido's special products and application postcards will be sent out after the Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for late June. If no application is received by the application deadline, we will send the QUO Card worth 4,000 yen.
* 4. Shareholder special benefit items other than *3 are scheduled to be shipped after the Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for late June.
Notes on the Continued Holding Period of the Preferential Long-Term Holding Program
In conjunction with this stock split, we will set an extraordinary record date of Sunday, November 30, 2025 (effectively Friday, November 28, 2025) to determine the shareholders who will be subject to the stock split.
Please note that if a shareholder listed or recorded in the shareholder register as of Tuesday, September 30, 2025 is not listed or recorded in the shareholder register as of Sunday, November 30, 2025 (effectively Friday, November 28, 2025) due to the sale of the Company's shares, the shareholder will be repurchased and the shareholder number will change even if the shareholder is listed or recorded in the shareholder register as of Tuesday, March 31, 2026. Therefore, the continuous holding period of the long-term holding preferential treatment program will be interrupted, and the requirements for the long-term holding preferential treatment program will no longer be satisfied.
