Governance
As a company with a Board of Corporate Auditors, the Board of Directors consists of 8 directors (of which 3 are outside directors, all serving as independent officers), and the executive officer system separates decision-making/oversight from business execution. A Nomination and Compensation Committee (with a majority of members being independent outside directors) has been established as a subsidiary body of the Board of Directors to ensure transparency.
Risk Management
Risk management is implemented centered on the ESG Committee (under the direct control of the President) and the Internal Audit Office, with deliberation by the ESG Committee on a quarterly basis followed by reporting to the Board of Directors. Crisis management regulations have been established, and natural disasters, equipment accidents, major accidents, and information system accidents are continuously managed as priority risks. In FY2025, human rights due diligence was conducted, and measures were strengthened with occupational health and safety and harassment prevention as priority items.
Shareholder Returns
For FY2026 (ending March 2026), the annual dividend per share is ¥50 (interim ¥20, year-end ¥30), with total dividends of ¥3,473 million and a payout ratio of 16.1%. For FY2027 (ending March 2027), the dividend is planned to increase to ¥60 per share annually (interim ¥30, year-end ¥30). Share buybacks are minor.
Dividend Policy
The dividend amount is determined by comprehensively considering the earnings outlook, industry trends, financial condition, and business strategy, while balancing shareholder returns through stable and continuous dividends with the enhancement of corporate value through strengthening the management foundation and expanding new businesses. The actual result for FY2026 (ending March 2026) was an annual dividend per share of ¥50 (interim ¥20, year-end ¥30), with total dividends of ¥3,473 million and a payout ratio of 16.1%. For FY2027 (ending March 2027), taking into account a profit outlook at a similar level to the current fiscal year and improvement in financial condition, an annual dividend per share of ¥60 (interim ¥30, year-end ¥30) is planned.
ESG
The company has established an ESG Committee (including a Group ESG Committee) reporting directly to the President, which drives cross-functional initiatives on climate change, human rights, human resource development, compliance, and other matters. It has set a goal of achieving a 100% Zero-Emission Vessel construction ratio system before 2040, and formulated the "Namura Shipbuilding Group Human Rights Policy" in FY2024. Human resource-related indicators have generally progressed favorably, with 143 women employed (target: 150), a male childcare leave uptake rate of 57.1% (target: 60%), and a paid leave utilization rate of 81.0% (target: 70% or higher).
