Compensation to Directors and Audit and Supervisory Committee Members

  1. Matters concerning the policy for the decision on the amounts of compensation to Directors and Audit and Supervisory Committee Members or the calculation method thereof
    The Board of Directors determined a policy concerning the decision on the details of individual compensation payable to Directors (excluding Directors serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Members). In summary, compensation payable to Directors (excluding Directors serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Members) is designed to sufficiently function as an incentive to aim for sustainable increase in corporate value by benchmarking the compensation levels of peer companies in related industries and segments with similar business scale. Compensation to Representative Directors and Directors serving as Executive Officers consists of basic compensation, performance-linked compensation and stock price-linked compensation, while compensation to part-time Directors consists of basic compensation only. Basic compensation is fixed compensation to be paid once monthly, performance-linked compensation is variable compensation to be paid once yearly according to business results, and stock price-linked compensation is variable compensation to be paid upon retirement according to stock price.
    The Company determines the amount of basic compensation payable to Directors (excluding Directors serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Members) at the Board of Directors after the Appointment and Remuneration Committee deliberates and proposes the respective amounts to be paid according to the position and other factors, in consideration of the compensation levels at other companies, the business results of the Company, the levels of employees' salaries and other factors. The Company determines the amount of performance-linked compensation payable to Directors (excluding Directors serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Members) at the Board of Directors after the Appointment and Remuneration Committee calculates the basic source of distribution using "Profit attributable to owners of parent" as an indicator to make a comprehensive measurement of the results of the management, and deliberates and proposes the respective amounts to be paid according to the positions, individual evaluations and other factors. The amount of stock price-linked compensation is calculated by multiplying the number of phantom stocks which are granted every year by the stock price three years late and the Company determines as to the grant of phantom stocks at the Board of Directors after the Appointment and Remuneration Committee deliberates and proposes such grant in consideration of its business condition, etc.
    The target percentage of variable compensation (performance-linked compensation and stock price-linked compensation) out of total compensation is approximately 25% (assuming a standard amount of performance-linked compensation and stock price-linked compensation). The amount of performance-linked compensation is decided by a method whereby the Appointment and Remuneration Committee first determines a range of profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company, which becomes a standard for basic source of distribution, by taking into consideration special factors such as extraordinary income or losses from profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company, and the Board of Directors determines a specific amount of performance-linked compensation by multiplying the basic source of distribution by a ratio corresponding to the ratio of distribution for each title and individual evaluation of Directors. The amount of stock price-linked compensation is decided by a method whereby the Appointment and Remuneration Committee first determines a number of phantom stocks calculated based on a standard amount set every year for each Representative Director and Director serving as an Executive Officer, and the Company determines as to the grant thereof at the Board of Directors. The phantom stocks are converted into points by multiplying the number of phantom stocks by the stock price three years later, and the points accumulated during the term of office are converted into a specific amount to be paid upon retirement.
    While target figures for the indicator for performance-linked compensation have not been determined for the current fiscal year, the actual figure of the basic source of distribution amounted to 35 million yen, with the standard range of profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company from 50,000 million yen to less than 60,000 million yen.
    Other details of the compensation payable to Directors are deliberated and proposed by the Appointment and Remuneration Committee and thereupon determined by the Board of Directors. The amount of compensation payable to Audit and Supervisory Committee Members is determined through consultation among Audit and Supervisory Committee Members in consideration of their duties and responsibilities. The stock price-linked compensation system (phantom stocks) decided at the Board of Directors meeting held on January 31, 2023, was introduced and started in June 2023 for the purpose of incentivizing management to demonstrate sound entrepreneurial spirit as well as further promoting value sharing with shareholders, toward the Company's sustainable growth and enhancement of medium- to long-term corporate value.
    At the 40th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 22, 2017, it was resolved that compensation payable to Directors (excluding Directors serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Members) per year shall be no more than 400 million yen (excluding the portion of employee's salary payable to Directors who concurrently serve as employees). The number of Directors (excluding Directors serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Members) as of the conclusion of the above Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders was six. In addition, at the same Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders, it was resolved that compensation payable to Directors serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Members per year shall be no more than 100 million yen. The number of Directors serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Members as of the conclusion of the above Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders was four. As of March 31, 2023, the number of Directors (excluding Directors serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Members) was six and the number of Directors serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Members was three.
    The details of the individual compensation payable to each Director (excluding Directors serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Members) for the fiscal year under review were determined by the Board of Directors within the compensation limit approved by the general meeting of shareholders respecting the proposal from the Appointment and Remuneration Committee submitted upon deliberation based on the Director's position, evaluation, and other factors. Therefore, the Company believes that the details are in line with the Policy.
