2. Interim Dividend
At the board meeting held on September 12, 2003, it was resolved that
an interim dividend for the period ending September, 2003 be declared
and paid.
The amount of the dividend is to be officially decided at a board meeting
scheduled for a later date to approve the interim business results but
in view of the improvement in the Company's performance as indicated above,
the dividend contemplated at the moment is 2 yen/share.
We ask our shareholders for their continued support of the Nisshin Steel
