Governance
The company operates as a company with an audit and supervisory committee, comprising 9 directors (4 of whom are outside directors). The outside director ratio is approximately 44% (4 out of 9), and all 3 audit and supervisory committee members are independent outside directors. An executive officer system has been introduced to separate decision-making and oversight functions from business execution functions.
Risk Management
The Internal Control Committee, chaired by the Representative Director and President and convened regularly once a month, oversees the risk management and compliance framework. The company recognizes compliance issues, environmental issues, quality issues, disasters, and information security as key risks, and operates internal and external corporate ethics consultation desks in accordance with the Whistleblower Protection Act.
Shareholder Returns
The basic policy combines a stable dividend (¥10 per year) with a performance-linked component, targeting a payout ratio of 20% or more and dividends twice a year; however, due to a deficit in retained earnings on a non-consolidated basis, no dividend will be paid for the current or next fiscal year. The Articles of Incorporation stipulate that share buybacks may be conducted flexibly by resolution of the Board of Directors.
Dividend Policy
The basic policy is to secure a stable dividend of ¥10 per year, plus a performance-linked component, targeting a payout ratio of 20% or more, paid twice a year (interim and year-end). However, because retained earnings show a deficit on a non-consolidated basis, no dividend will be paid for the current fiscal year or the next dividend.
ESG
In terms of human capital, the company has established systems including the placement of industrial physicians, stress checks, an employee stock ownership plan, and support systems for balancing childcare/nursing care with work. While it achieved a 100% rate of paternity leave uptake (target: 50%) and average overtime hours of 2.88 hours (target: within 5 hours), it fell short of targets for the ratio of female managers at 0% (target: 10%) and the paid leave utilization rate at 56.4% (target: 80%), with continued efforts underway toward the next target deadline of FY2027 (ending March 2027).
