Fundamental Stance
The goal of our IR initiative is to clearly communicate our vision to our shareholders and investors, and to reflect the voice of the market in our operations and enhance shareholder value.
To achieve this goal, the president and top management will create opportunities to personally explain our business strategies and policies to institutional investors and analysts both inside and outside Japan.
Comprehensive Implementation of IR policy
We will work to comprehensively implement the IR policy in every company of the group.
Our IR Team will respond to all inquiries from analysts and research organizations.
Fairness and Timeliness of Information
Our goal is to disclose information in a fair and timely manner, such as disclosure on our website, so that no particular individuals or institutions have exclusive access to information.
Disclosure Methods and Information Disclosed
We disclose information in accordance with the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act and the timely disclosure rules of the Japan Securities Dealers Association.
To meet investor needs, it is also our policy to provide fair disclosure of information that is not subject to the timely disclosure rules.
Information that we reference at individual meetings with institutional investors and analysts is limited to information that has already been publically disclosed, facts that are common knowledge, and the business environment that is typically reported in the news media.
Absolutely no reference is made to information that has not been publically disclosed (important matters and other information).
IR Quiet Period
We have established an IR quiet period.
During that period, our officials and employees abstain from making comments on business prospects, results, and forecasts to particular investors and the media.
However, if we determine during the quiet period that a substantial change in our future prospects is likely, we will disclose this information with appropriate revisions and changes.
The quiet period is the four weeks that precede the day on which each quarter’s earnings are announced.
