A voluntary Nomination and Compensation Committee has been established (comprising 5 members including 3 outside directors, with independent officers forming the majority), ensuring objectivity and transparency.
Risk Management
The Company has established the "Risk Management Regulations" and monitors risks on a routine basis through Management Meetings (held twice weekly), while also holding the Risk Management and Compliance Promotion Committee meeting once per quarter. The Company has developed frameworks for compliance, information security, personal information protection (having obtained Privacy Mark certification), and the exclusion of anti-social forces, and has established a system whereby internal auditors audit the risk status across the organization.
Shareholder Returns
For FY2026 (ending June 2026), the company forecasts a year-end dividend of ¥2.50 per share (a slight increase versus the prior-period ¥4.50, which is equivalent to ¥2.25 after adjusting for the stock split). A 1-for-2 stock split was carried out in October 2025. Cancellation of treasury shares (equivalent to ¥1,231 million) has already been implemented. No numerical target for the payout ratio has been disclosed.
Dividend Policy
The basic policy is to pay a year-end dividend once per year. Effective October 1, 2025, a stock split was carried out at a ratio of 2 shares for every 1 share of common stock held. The year-end dividend forecast for FY2026 (ending June 2026) is ¥2.50 per share (the prior period's ¥4.50, when converted post-split, is equivalent to ¥2.25). Additionally, based on a resolution of the Board of Directors dated December 23, 2025, the cancellation of treasury shares (equivalent to ¥1,231 million) was carried out. As a subsequent event, in April 2026 the company resolved to borrow a total of ¥10,000 million for the purpose of business expansion.
