3. Cash Allocation and Shareholder Returns Policy During the SF 1st Stage

1) Aiming to maximize corporate value through the realization of the long-term vision, OMRON prioritizes the necessary investments to create new value from the medium- and long-term perspectives. During the SF2030 1st Stage, priority will be placed on investments for solving social issues, creating social needs, developing human resources, promoting research and development, capital investments to ramp up production capacity and advance the digital transformation (DX), and investments in growth initiatives such as M&A&A (merger, acquisition, and alliance), as well as investments in sustainability initiatives such as de-carbonization and reduction of our environmental impact and incorporation of respect for human rights in the value chain, while at the same time returning profits to shareholders in a stable and sustainable manner.

2) Such investments for value creation and shareholder returns will be, at least in principle, sourced from internal reserves and operating cash flows that are generated continually, as we use appropriate financing facilities when necessary. We will maintain a degree of financial soundness that allows us to seek financing regardless of the current financial situation.

4

  1. With priority being placed on the investments necessary for value creation over the medium- and long-term, annual dividends will be based on "dividends on equity (DOE) of around 3%." With the past dividend records also being taken into account, we will ensure stable and sustainable shareholder returns.
  2. OMRON will distribute retained earnings accumulated over the long term after making the above investments and profit distribution to shareholders through strategic share buybacks and other measures.
