Management Policy
Management Policy
1. Basic policies for prot distribution
We determine the prot distribution based on the performances, dividend payout ratio, strengthening of the corporate nature and full
internal reserve for future business developments from the medium- to long-term viewpoint, with the emphasis on the continuous and
stable distribution.
The Group has a structure in which prots are highly dependent on overseas manufacturing plants. They are mainly located in develop-
ing countries, and are therefore subject to exchange rate uctuations. To achieve stable growth, we need to further enhance our corpo-
rate structure and prepare for unforeseen circumstances.
In future years, under the foregoing point of view, we will also determine the prot distribution based on the performance of scal year.
2. Corporate governance issues
(1) Basic concepts regarding corporate governance
Through fair and ecient corporate activities, The Company always intends to be trusted by all our stakeholders including shareholders,
customers, partner companies, local communities and employees, and to be a continuously growing company, while making a further con-
tribution to the international community. In order to realize that intention, The Company considers that the enhancement of the corporate
governance is one of the most important issues for proper corporate management and is aggressively taking various kinds of measures.
Also, in order to be trusted further by society and stakeholders, we disclose information quickly in fair and accurate manner prescribed
in laws and regulations and aggressively disclose information that we concluded is benecial to understand The Company. We will fur-
ther enhance the transparency of The Company.
