Governance
As a company with an Audit and Supervisory Committee, the board consists of 8 directors (4 of whom are outside directors), and the company separates management and execution through an executive officer system. A Nomination and Compensation Advisory Committee (in which independent outside directors make up at least half the members) has been established as an advisory body to the Board of Directors, building a highly transparent management structure.
Risk Management
The company has established risk management regulations by business segment, building a system whereby the Board of Directors periodically receives reports on the status of business execution. In response to internal control deficiencies identified in prior years, the company submitted an improvement report to the Tokyo Stock Exchange in November 2025, and is currently implementing recurrence prevention measures to strengthen corporate governance and enhance its internal management system. Regarding climate change risk, the company utilizes the TCFD framework, conducting scenario analysis under two scenarios (1.5°C and 4°C), and has incorporated countermeasures such as energy conservation and waste reduction into its annual and medium-term plans.
Shareholder Returns
No dividend payments continued in FY2026 (ending March 2026) (annual dividend of ¥0 for both common shares and Class A preferred shares). No dividend is forecast for FY2027 (ending March 2026) either. There were no share buybacks during the current period. Improving the financial structure and turning around North America are the priority tasks, and no shareholder returns have been implemented.
Dividend Policy
FY2026 (ending March 2026) was designated as a no-dividend period given that the business is still in the process of recovery. For FY2027 (ending March 2026), an annual dividend of ¥0 is planned for both common shares and Class A preferred shares. There is no detailed description of a dividend policy, and priority is given to establishing a profit base based on the medium-term management plan "Kasai Turnaround Aspiration" (final year FY2028, ending March 2026).
ESG
The company has conducted scenario analysis utilizing TCFD toward the realization of a decarbonized society, and has set a medium-term target of reducing CO2 emissions (GHG Scope 1 and 2) by 30% by FY2030 (ending March 2031) compared to FY2019 (ended March 2020). Human capital management is positioned as one of the six pillars of the medium-term management plan "Kasai Turnaround Aspiration," with numerical targets such as a female employee ratio of 15% or higher and a ratio of male employees taking childcare leave of two months or more of 45% or higher, as the company works to improve engagement, ensure diversity, and develop human resources.
