Governance
Company with a Board of Corporate Auditors. As of the filing date, the Board of Directors comprises 10 members (including 4 outside directors and 4 independent officers), and the Board of Corporate Auditors comprises 3 members (including 2 outside corporate auditors). The company has adopted an executive officer system to separate decision-making from business execution. Under the Internal Control Division, four standing committees are maintained: Compliance, Information Management, Risk Management, and Financial Management. Following approval at the Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders on March 27, 2026, the Board of Directors is expected to comprise 11 members (5 outside directors), with 7 independent outside officers in total.
Risk Management
The Risk Management Committee, under the Internal Control Division, monitors cross-organizational risks, and material risk information is reported to the Board of Directors by the Chairman of the Risk Management Committee (a Director). For risks related to occupational health and safety, disasters, quality, information security, and the environment, the responsible departments prepare manuals, conduct training, and operate under the respective ISO standards (9001/14001/17025/27001). The Sustainability Promotion Committee examines risks and opportunities related to climate change, biodiversity, human capital, and other factors, and reflects them in the Medium-Term Management Plan.
Shareholder Returns
The annual dividend forecast for FY2026 (ending December 2026) is ¥118 (year-end lump sum), maintaining the same amount as the previous fiscal year's actual results. No first-quarter-end dividend will be implemented. There is no change to earnings forecasts, and the dividend forecast remains unrevised.
Dividend Policy
The basic policy is stable and continuous profit distribution to shareholders. During the Sixth Medium-Term Management Plan period, the company targets a payout ratio of 35% to 40% and a total return ratio of 50%. Since the majority of orders come from government agencies and public corporations, and second-half orders significantly affect business performance, only one year-end dividend is paid annually (no interim dividend is implemented). The annual dividend forecast for FY2026 (ending December 2026) is ¥118 (year-end lump sum), the same amount as the previous fiscal year's actual results.
ESG
The company has established a Sustainability Promotion Committee chaired by the President and Representative Director, addressing seven materiality issues including climate change and human capital. For climate change, the company conducts 1.5°C/2°C/4°C scenario analyses based on TCFD recommendations, targeting a 30-40% reduction in Scope 1+2 emissions by 2030 versus 2013 levels (under GHG Protocol standards) and net-zero by 2050 (FY2024 actual: 3,332 t-CO₂, market-based). Regarding human capital, the company has obtained "Kurumin" and "Eruboshi" certifications, has been recognized as a Certified Health and Productivity Management Outstanding Organization continuously since 2020, and has set and disclosed quantitative targets such as a 100% male childcare leave utilization rate and a 9.8% female manager ratio (as of March 2025).
