Aim to Join Billion Dollar Club at an Early Date through Dramatic Growth, as well as Top Level Earning Capacity in Industry
and Implement Corporate Value Expansion Strategy
The Second Mid-Term Business Plan, Value Creation Plan
As mentioned above, the Kenwood Group has formulated the second mid-term business plan, the Value Creation Plan, which spans
three years starting from the term ending March 2006, which is also the final year of the first mid-term business plan, the Excellent
Kenwood Plan, to the term ending March 2008.
This is intended to take our key businesses of car electronics consumer (audio) business and wireless radio business, which dominate
more than half of the sales of our entire group of companies, and further enhance their stable profit base by enhancing the
organizations to cope with the growing markets such as BRICs, together with progress in M&A. Excellence will then be attained
through the reform of profit structures of growing businesses, such as car electronics OEM business and car multimedia (consumer)
business operations, and overlaying them on the top of that of the stable businesses. Also we will grasp the Digitization of Media
for music media to be a new business opportunity. This will then lead us to the pioneering of a new realm in the Entertainment of
Sound that integrates car electronics business with home electronics business. All these will result in dramatic growth and a top level
earning power in the industry, and we shall undertake activities relating to the Corporate Value Expansion Strategy to expand our
corporate value to enter the Billion Dollar Club at an early date.
