MARUWA CO., LTD. ("MARUWA") announced the Board of Directors resolved at the meeting on 16 May 2006 the
revision of dividends forecast for the fiscal 2006, which had been announced on 10 May 2005.  Details are as

1. Reasons for the revision of dividends forecast

MARUWA posted an increase of consolidated operating results both in sales and profits for fiscal 2006 in
4-consecutive year with record high sales.

Therefore, we will propose an increase of year-end dividend per share by 3 yen, from 9 yen to 12 yen.

Meanwhile, the above proposal is subject to the approval of shareholders at the general meeting of
shareholders to be held in June 2006.  After being approved at the meeting, the annual dividend per share
for fiscal 2006 will be 21 yen.
