Governance
Company with an Audit and Supervisory Committee (transitioned in May 2023). The board consists of 9 directors (3 of whom are outside directors, all serving as members of the Audit and Supervisory Committee), with outside directors accounting for approximately 33% of the full board. The company has established a Nomination and Compensation Committee (a majority of whose members are independent outside directors) and has also introduced an executive officer system. The board of directors met 13 times in FY2025 (ended February 2025).
Risk Management
Established a risk management framework through agile operation of the management committee and other bodies, along with close communication with top management. In the event of a major risk, the company responds on a company-wide basis centered on the President. For information management risk, the company has obtained ISO/IEC27001 (ISMS) certification (obtained in 2003, transitioned in 2007) and has also established personal information protection regulations. For climate-related risks, the Sustainability Promotion Office identifies and evaluates such risks, and a framework has been built whereby they are reported to the Board of Directors via the Sustainability Committee.
