All directors attended all 12 Board of Directors meetings held during the fiscal year. No nomination committee or compensation committee has been established.
Risk Management
The Company has established internal regulations for each type of risk, and important risks identified by the director in charge of each area are promptly shared with the Board of Directors.

Shareholder Returns
The basic policy is to pay a dividend once a year at fiscal year-end, balancing the retention of internal reserves with the continuation of stable dividends. The dividend forecast for FY2027 (ending January 2027) is ¥30.0 per share (year-end lump sum), unchanged from the actual amount in the previous period. No mention of share buybacks.

ESG
As part of its climate change response, the company is promoting enhanced energy conservation, the adoption of non-fossil energy, participation in the J-Credit Scheme, and the use of renewable energy. In terms of human capital, its policy emphasizes respect for diversity, flexible working styles, and continuous education; however, the actual ratio of female managers stood at 0.0% against a target of 12.5% or higher, falling short. The rate of male employees taking childcare leave achieved 100% for both target and actual results. The company is also pursuing sustainability initiatives on the product side, including materials that address metal allergies and the development of a jewelry recycling ecosystem.
