Governance
In December 2024, the company transitioned from a company with a board of corporate auditors to a company with an audit and supervisory committee. The Board of Directors consists of 9 members (including 4 outside directors), and a Nomination and Compensation Committee (with a majority of independent outside directors), serving as an advisory body to the Board of Directors, has been established. An executive officer system has also been introduced to ensure a flexible business execution structure.
Risk Management
The company has established the "Risk Management Regulations" and the "Crisis Management Regulations," and identifies and evaluates both the risk and opportunity aspects—viewing risks not only as negative impacts to be avoided but also as opportunities for business growth—through processes based on the Regulations on Division of Duties and other rules. The company has built a system for appropriately managing risk through timely information sharing via internal communication tools and the determination of countermeasures by the Board of Directors and the Executive Officers' Meeting.
Shareholder Returns
For the interim dividend of FY2026 (ending September 2026), the company implemented a dividend of ¥3 per share (scheduled to be paid on June 12, 2026); combined with the year-end dividend forecast of ¥3, the annual dividend is expected to total ¥6. In addition, the company has already acquired 700,000 shares of treasury stock (approximately ¥913 million), implementing shareholder returns that combine dividends and share buybacks.
Dividend Policy
The basic policy is to implement a dividend policy that maximizes shareholder benefit while balancing the retention of internal reserves for growth investment with the return of profits to shareholders. For FY2026 (ending September 2026), the company implemented an interim dividend of ¥3 per share (scheduled to be paid on June 12, 2026), and combined with the year-end dividend forecast of ¥3, the annual dividend is expected to total ¥6. In the previous fiscal year (FY2025, ended September 2025), the annual dividend was ¥5 per share paid only at year-end (total dividend amount of ¥159 million).
ESG
In human capital, the company is promoting diversity and inclusion (foreign national employee ratio of 20.1%, from approximately 30 countries and regions), strengthening recruitment (94 hires and a turnover rate of 6.6% in FY2025 (ended September 2025)), and investing in English as an official language and education (education expenses of ¥59 million). On climate change, the company recognizes transition risks such as carbon taxes and rising energy costs, and has set goals to procure renewable energy and improve energy efficiency at its headquarters, as well as to support customers' decarbonization through its own cloud services.
