A company with an audit and supervisory committee. The Board of Directors consists of 7 members in total—3 directors and 4 audit and supervisory committee members (of whom 3 are outside directors)—and decision-making and oversight are carried out through regular monthly Board of Directors meetings and management meetings held twice a month. The outside director ratio is approximately 43% (3 of 7 members).
Risk Management
The Representative Director appoints the Chief Risk Management Officer as the officer responsible for risk management, and works together with the heads of each department to develop the risk management framework. A Compliance Committee has been established to conduct cross-functional performance management and risk management. For sustainability-related risks, a system has been adopted whereby each department and office evaluates and examines such risks once a year under the jurisdiction of the officer in charge.

The company's basic policy is to pay a year-end dividend once annually. For FY2026 (ending March 2026), it paid ¥18 per share (total dividends of ¥52 million, payout ratio of 11.4%). For FY2027 (ending March 2027), ¥17 per share is planned. During the period, the company conducted a share buyback (¥136 thousand). There is no mention of shareholder benefit programs.
Dividend Policy
The basic policy is to implement stable and continuous dividends, taking into account the strengthening of the financial structure and the accumulation of internal reserves necessary for future business development. The company's basic policy is a year-end dividend paid once annually, and the articles of incorporation stipulate that dividends of surplus may be determined by resolution of the Board of Directors. For FY2026 (ending March 2026), the actual dividend was ¥18 per share (total dividends of ¥52 million, payout ratio of 11.4%, dividend on equity ratio of 1.5%). Note that a stock split at a ratio of 2 shares for every 1 share of common stock was implemented effective October 1, 2025, and dividend amounts for the second quarter of FY2026 (ending March 2026) and earlier are stated as the actual dividend amounts before the stock split. For FY2027 (ending March 2027), a dividend of ¥17 per share (payout ratio of 14.0%) is forecast.
ESG
On the environmental front, the company prioritizes energy conservation and food recycling, having already achieved a food recycling rate of 73.4% (target: 70%), while the energy intensity reduction target under the Energy Conservation Act remains unmet. On the human capital front, multiple targets remain unachieved, including a female employee ratio of 19.1% (target: 30%) and a 44.4% three-year retention departure rate for new hires (target: 30% or below); the company is working to improve the workplace environment through the elimination of long working hours, elimination of harassment, and continuous wage increases. The establishment of a sustainability committee is under consideration for the future.
