Point1 Strengthening supervisory functions
At the 35th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held on 24 March 2022, we resolved to transition from a company with auditors and a board of auditors to a company with an Audit and Supervisory Committee for purposes which include the further strengthening of auditing and supervisory functions and enhanced agility in business execution.
Point2 Independence of the Board of Directors
The Company’s policy is to maintain a Board of Directors in which independent directors constitute the majority. As of March 2026, the Board comprises 11 directors, seven of whom are outside directors who have been designated as independent directors in accordance with the rules of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, representing a majority of the Board.
In addition, the Company has established a policy that the Chair of the Board should be an independent director. As of March 2026, the position of Chair is held by an outside director who is also an independent director.
Point3 Enhancing internal control functions
In June 2024, we established the Internal Control Division to further strengthen our control environment for J-SOX, operations, finance, and compliance.
Point4 Strengthening nomination and remuneration governance by the Board of Independent Directors
The Company has established the Board of Independent Directors, composed of independent external directors, as an advisory body for the nomination of directors and their remuneration. The Board of Directors hears the opinions of the Board of Independent Directors when determining remuneration policies and the amount of individual remuneration. The Company also considers the views of the Board of Independent Directors when nominating candidates for Directors, based on the evaluation standards set by the Board of Independent Directors.
