Governance
Company with an Audit and Supervisory Committee. As of the filing date, the Board of Directors consists of 11 members (including 2 outside directors, both of whom are independent officers). The Board of Directors met 13 times in fiscal 2025. An executive officer system has been introduced to expedite decision-making. The establishment of a Nomination Committee or Compensation Committee is not confirmed in the securities report.
Risk Management
Risks related to environment, disasters, quality, information security, etc. are managed by business divisions and administrative departments through regulations, manuals, training, and other measures. The Audit Department and Administrative Department collaborate to monitor risks across the organization, and when new risks arise, the Board of Directors promptly determines the person responsible for addressing them. A Crisis Management Committee has been established to enable organized responses to natural disasters and incidents/accidents. Sustainability-related risks are identified at the level of each business division and department, linked to SEIWA SDGs themes, compiled by the Corporate Planning Department, deliberated at management meetings, and reflected in the strategy for the following fiscal year.
Shareholder Returns
The company's basic policy is to maintain stable dividends. For FY2026 (ending December 2026), it forecasts an annual dividend of ¥20 per share (¥0 at Q2-end, ¥20 at year-end). The actual dividend for FY2025 (ended December 2025) was also ¥20. There has been no revision to either the earnings forecast or the dividend forecast. Share buybacks are underway (the number of treasury shares increased during the period).
Dividend Policy
Dividends are determined by comprehensively taking into account the financial position and business results of each fiscal year, with consideration given to maintaining stable dividends and building up retained earnings for future business development. The basic policy is to pay a dividend once a year at fiscal year-end, and the articles of incorporation stipulate that the Board of Directors may flexibly determine dividends by resolution. The actual dividend for FY2025 (ended December 2025) was ¥20 per share (¥0 at Q2-end, ¥20 at year-end). The forecast for FY2026 (ending December 2026) is ¥20 per share (¥0 at Q2-end, ¥20 at year-end), unchanged from the most recently announced dividend forecast.
