Governance
The company has an Audit and Supervisory Committee structure, with 4 of 7 directors being outside directors (a majority). It has adopted a delegated executive officer system to separate management and execution, and has established a rapid decision-making framework through monthly regular board meetings (18 held in FY2025) and monthly group executive officer meetings. Notably, a delay in internal control audits at a US subsidiary led to the holding of a continuation session of the 8th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders.
Risk Management
The company has established the "Group Risk Management Regulations" and holds regular meetings of the CXO Risk Management Committee. It has designated decarbonization and human rights as top-priority risk issues, and oversees risk identification and response measures across the group in collaboration with the Sustainability Committee. Third-party evaluations by CDP and EcoVadis are utilized as benchmarks.
