The company has established an Internal Control Committee, an ESG Committee, and an executive officer system, with KPMG AZSA LLC serving as the accounting auditor. The Annual Securities Report does not mention the establishment of a Nomination Committee or a Compensation Committee.
Risk Management
The General Affairs Department serves as the point of contact for risk management, receiving reports from each department, while a dedicated staff member in the President's Office conducts internal audits based on an annual plan. In the event of an emergency, a response headquarters headed by the Representative Director and President is established, with a framework in place to coordinate with external advisors such as legal counsel. Sustainability-related risks are centrally managed by the ESG Committee.
Shareholder Returns
Revised the FY2026 (ending July 2026) full-year dividend forecast upward to ¥75 (an increase from ¥60 in the previous period). In light of strong cumulative performance through the third quarter, the dividend forecast was revised upward effective June 12, 2026. Share buybacks can be conducted flexibly under the company's articles of incorporation.
Dividend Policy
The company adopts a policy of maintaining stable dividends while securing internal reserves for strengthening its management foundation and capital investment, combined with a performance-linked approach to dividends. In principle, dividends are paid once annually at fiscal year-end, though interim dividends are also permitted under the articles of incorporation. For FY2026 (ending July 2026), a dividend of ¥75 per share (paid in full at fiscal year-end) is planned (an increase from ¥60 in the previous period). Taking into account cumulative results through the third quarter and the outlook for future performance, the dividend forecast was revised upward effective June 12, 2026.
ESG
The ESG Committee (chaired by the President), established in August 2022, oversees sustainability issues such as climate change and human capital, and reports regularly to the Board of Directors. GHG emissions in the 46th fiscal year totaled 912 tons (up 84 tons year on year), or 9.8 tons per ¥100 million of net sales. The company targets a female hiring ratio of 30% or more (actual result of 26.7% in the 46th fiscal year), and is also promoting human capital initiatives such as harassment training and the establishment of a dedicated consultation desk for female employees.
