Basic Disclosure Policy
We disclose financial and non-financial information appropriately following the Companies Act, the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act, other relevant laws and regulations, and the Securities Listing Regulations established by financial instruments exchanges. Additionally, we provide prompt, accurate, fair, and easy-to-understand information to all stakeholders, including shareholders, through IR briefings and our IR page.
Through two-way communication with shareholders and investors, we aim to earn the market's trust and proper evaluation by incorporating their feedback into our management strategy and ensuring a clear understanding of our Group's management strategy and financial condition.
1. Standards for Timely Disclosure
When information regarding decisions, occurrences, or financial results that could significantly impact investment decisions arises, we promptly disclose it in accordance with the Tokyo Stock Exchange's Timely Disclosure Rules ("Timely Disclosure Rules"). Even for information not covered by these rules, we actively disclose any information deemed beneficial for investment decision-making.
We will not disclose personal information, customer information, or any information that could infringe on the rights of related parties.
2. Methods of Timely Disclosure
Information subject to the Timely Disclosure Rules is disclosed via the Timely Disclosure Network (TDnet) provided by the Tokyo Stock Exchange in compliance with these rules. Information disclosed on TDnet will be promptly posted on the Company's website and, if necessary, announced to the press and subject to other disclosure procedures as required by law.
3. Prevention of Insider Trading and Fair Disclosure of Information
The Company has established "Regulations for the Prevention of Insider Trading" to ensure the proper management of important information, prevent insider trading, and promote fair disclosure of information. We also work to raise awareness and provide education for all employees within the Group.
4. Forward-looking Statements
In addition to the earnings forecasts submitted to the Tokyo Stock Exchange, our information disclosure includes guidance, greetings, speeches, and Q&A sessions at meetings with analysts and others, as well as written documents issued by us and information on our website, which may include our current plans, forecasts, and strategies. When disclosing such forward-looking information, those statements that are not historical facts are based on forward-looking statements made under certain assumptions or on the judgment of the Company's management derived from currently available information. When evaluating our business performance, corporate value, and other aspects, please understand that various factors may lead to actual results differing significantly from the disclosed forecasts. Please avoid relying solely on these forecasts for your decisions.
5. Positioning of the IR Page
The Company strives to promptly post all material and non-material facts deemed valid for investment purposes on its IR page following the above rules.
However, we regard the disclosure of information on our IR page as only supplementary. Information on the IR page may be delayed due to factors such as communication system failures or preparation time for posting. Additionally, the IR page may not include all information disclosed by the Company or may present information differently from other disclosure methods.
While we take the utmost care to ensure the accuracy of the information and content posted, we do not guarantee its accuracy and accept no responsibility for any damage, including those caused by data downloads.
We recommend reviewing the Securities Report and other disclosures, particularly concerning material facts. We kindly ask for your understanding of these points when using our IR page.
6. Quiet Period
To prevent information leaks and ensure fair disclosure, the Company designates the period from the day following the account closing date of each quarter to the date of financial results announcement as a "Quiet Period." During this time, it refrains from responding to questions or providing comments on financial results. However, even during the Quiet Period, if the Company is expected to deviate significantly from its earnings forecast, we will disclose information as necessary in accordance with the Timely Disclosure Rules.
7. Development of Internal Systems
In accordance with this Disclosure Policy, the Company strives to develop and enhance its internal systems to ensure appropriate disclosure of information under various laws and regulations and Timely Disclosure Rules.
