We have established an IR policy in order to increase management transparency, maintain fairness, and conduct proactive and timely IR activities.
We recognize the importance of timely and appropriate disclosure of company information that may affect the investment decisions of shareholders and investors, and our basic policy is to strive to ensure transparency and fairness. Furthermore, we will endeavor to proactively disclose information to the extent possible that is deemed necessary or useful for helping shareholders and investors understand our company, regardless of whether the information is favorable or unfavorable to our company.
We recognize that the purpose of our IR activities is to enhance two-way communication through opportunities and touchpoints that we can share with all stakeholders, including shareholders and investors, to receive a fair evaluation, to increase the transparency of our management, and to improve our credibility.
Any information that falls under the Timely Disclosure Rules will be disclosed through the "Timely Disclosure Information System (TDnet)" and the same information will be promptly provided to media organizations. In addition, any information that is disclosed will be posted on our website (hereinafter referred to as "this site") promptly after disclosure. However, please note that there may be delays in posting information on this site due to technical issues, etc.
Even with regard to information that does not fall under the Timely Disclosure Rules, we will disclose it in a timely and appropriate manner, taking into account the purpose of the Timely Disclosure Rules and our basic policy on information disclosure, and strive to ensure transparency and fairness.
Information disclosed by the Company may contain statements about future prospects, such as business performance forecasts. These statements are calculated based on information available at the time of writing, and actual business performance may differ depending on various factors that may affect the future.
Therefore, we ask that you refrain from making investment decisions based solely on business performance forecasts and other forward-looking statements.
The Company has designated the period from four weeks prior to the scheduled announcement of each quarter's financial results until the day of the announcement as an "IR quiet period." During this period, the Company refrains from making comments or answering questions regarding financial results and business outlooks to specific shareholders/investors or specific media, etc., as well as from holding IR activities such as company information sessions, in order to prevent the leaking of financial results information.
However, if there is a prospect that our earnings forecasts will deviate significantly during this period of self-restraint or if an event occurs that will have a significant impact on investment decisions, we will disclose the necessary information in a timely manner.
