Communication with Shareholders
Basic Policy
Our fundamental policy is to actively engage in dialogue with shareholders, investors, and other stakeholders. We do this by disclosing appropriate information in a timely manner regarding our management policies and initiatives aimed at sustainable growth and enhancing medium- to long-term corporate value, explaining such information in easy-to-understand language. We will report opinions gained through dialogue with shareholders, investors, and other stakeholders to the Board of Directors and use them to drive further initiatives.
Dialogue Framework
The Director in charge of the Corporate Management Department oversees dialogue with shareholders, investors, and other stakeholders. Actual meetings are handled appropriately by Directors or the Corporate Management Department, depending on the purpose of the meeting.
- For individual shareholders: We strive to provide easy-to-understand information through the issuance of shareholder newsletters and business explanations on our website.
- For institutional investors and securities analysts, we hold semi-annual earnings briefings, arrange individual meetings with directors or the Corporate Management Department, and organize small meetings featuring the President or the Director in charge of the Corporate Management Department as speakers.

Status of Dialogue and Feedback to Directors
We held earnings briefings for institutional investors and securities analysts to explain our performance and the progress of our mid-term management plan. In small meetings and individual dialogues, we provided explanations on performance, the progress of the mid-term management plan, business activities, and the market, deepening their understanding of our company.For the fiscal year ending February 2025, the main dialogue themes were quarterly earnings summaries and outlooks, progress on the mid-term management plan, capital policy, research and development, and sales strategy.
The valuable opinions gathered through dialogue with shareholders, investors, and other stakeholders were reported by the Corporate Management Department to the President and Representative Director and the Director in charge of the Corporate Management Department. The President and Representative Director then reported these opinions to the Board of Directors.
Results of Dialogue
In disclosing our mid-term management plan, we quantitatively presented cash allocation items in addition to historical sales and profits. By driving the cycle of disclosure-based dialogue, feedback to management, and strategic planning, we will enhance corporate value.
