Disclosure Standards The Company discloses information in accordance with the Companies Act, the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act, other applicable laws and regulations, and the rules concerning the timely disclosure of corporate information established by the securities exchange on which the Company is listed (the “Timely Disclosure Rules”). Even when information is not subject to the Timely Disclosure Rules, the Company proactively discloses on its website information that it deems useful for investors in making investment decisions.
Methods of Disclosure Information required to be disclosed in a timely manner under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act and related laws and regulations is disclosed through EDINET, an electronic disclosure system operated by the Financial Services Agency for securities reports and other disclosure documents filed under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act.
Information subject to the Timely Disclosure Rules is disclosed through TDnet, the timely disclosure information transmission system provided by the securities exchange, and is promptly posted on the Company’s website. Information that is not subject to the Timely Disclosure Rules is also disclosed broadly, including through publication on the Company’s website.
Prevention of Insider Trading To appropriately manage material corporate information, prevent insider trading, and ensure fair disclosure, the Company has established internal standards and works to ensure that all Group employees are fully aware of and understand these standards.
Handling of Earnings Forecasts and Forward-Looking Statements Among the information disclosed by the Company, statements regarding earnings forecasts, strategies, policies, targets, and other matters that are not historical or current facts constitute forward-looking statements. These statements are based on plans, expectations, and judgments derived from information available to the Company at the time of disclosure and on certain assumptions deemed reasonable. Actual results and other outcomes may differ materially from these statements due to various risks and uncertainties.
Quiet Period To prevent the leakage of financial results information and ensure fair disclosure, the Company observes a quiet period from the day following the end of each quarterly reporting period until the date of the respective financial results announcement. During this period, the Company refrains from responding to inquiries, providing comments, or participating in interviews regarding its financial results. However, if it becomes clear during the quiet period that actual results may differ significantly from previously announced earnings forecasts, the Company will disclose such information as appropriate in accordance with the Timely Disclosure Rules.
Development of Internal Systems The Company works to develop and strengthen its internal framework to ensure the proper operation of this Disclosure Policy. The department responsible for information disclosure collects and analyzes information appropriately in coordination with the Company’s operating departments, enabling the Company to make appropriate disclosure decisions.
