Company with a Board of Corporate Auditors. The Board of Directors consists of 5 directors (2 of whom are outside directors, an outside ratio of 40%), and the Board of Corporate Auditors consists of 3 auditors (2 of whom are outside auditors). The outside directors hold qualifications as an attorney and a judicial scrivener, and serve an independent oversight function as legal experts.

The Sustainability Committee takes the lead in identifying materiality issues, which are then reported on and resolved by the Board of Directors.

Materiality has been identified with the Sustainability Committee, established in April 2024, as its core body. CO2 emissions (Scope 1+2) totaled 7,804 t-CO2 across 38 properties in the fiscal year under review, the OTA site room rating score was 4.13 (achieving the target of 4.0 or higher), and the eco-plan sales ratio was 44.5% (falling short of the 50% target). On the human capital front, the promotion rate of mid-career hires to managerial positions reached 80.0% (achieving the target of 50% or higher), while the ratio of women in managerial positions remained at 0.0% (falling short of the 20% target), leaving this as an ongoing challenge. As part of health management initiatives, the company promotes exercise, infectious disease prevention, and the use of paid leave.
