Governance
Transitioned to a company with an audit and supervisory committee in January 2025. The Board of Directors comprises 8 members in total (5 directors who are not audit and supervisory committee members, of whom 1 is outside, and 3 outside directors who are audit and supervisory committee members), with outside directors accounting for 50% (4 of 8 members). A voluntary nomination and compensation committee has been established, chaired by an independent outside director.
Risk Management
The Company has established the "Risk Management Regulations" and holds a Risk and Compliance Committee, chaired by the Representative Director and President, once per quarter to share risk information and formulate countermeasures. The Company has also established a system in which four internal audit personnel conduct audits of all departments, with results reported to the Representative Director and President and the Board of Directors. Sustainability risks are also managed collectively by the same committee and are reported to the Representative Director and President on a regular basis.
Shareholder Returns
Annual dividends for both FY2025 (ending December 2025) and FY2026 (ending December 2026) are ¥0 (no dividend). The company continues to prioritize growth investment and build up retained earnings, and has not implemented any share buybacks or shareholder benefit programs.
Dividend Policy
The annual dividend for FY2025 (ending December 2025) is ¥0 (¥0 at second-quarter end, ¥0 at year-end). The forecast for FY2026 (ending December 2026) is also an annual dividend of ¥0 (¥0 at second-quarter end, ¥0 at year-end). As a company in a growth phase, the company prioritizes building up retained earnings and has not paid dividends. Going forward, the company intends to return profits to shareholders while taking into account its financial position and business results for each fiscal year, but the possibility and timing of dividend payments remain undetermined at this time. There has been no revision to the most recently announced dividend forecast.
ESG
Under the mission of "turning cutting-edge technology into reliable labor," the company promotes contributions to social issues (labor shortages) through AI and DX advancement at manufacturing sites, integrated with its business strategy. On the human capital front, it has established flexible working arrangements such as a quarterly evaluation system, remote work, and flextime, but quantitative targets such as the ratio of female managers have not been set and are under consideration as a future issue. No specific disclosures regarding climate change are confirmed in the securities report.
