Executive compensation
Regarding individual remuneration amounts, the policy is to formulate remuneration proposals at the voluntary Nomination and Compensation Committee and then resolve them at the Board of Directors meeting. The voluntary Nomination and Compensation Committee is intended to have a majority of independent outside directors. Furthermore, when determining remuneration amounts, the total remuneration paid to directors is decided within the annual remuneration limit of 150 million yen, as resolved at the 16th Annual General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 30, 2026 (of which up to 50 million yen is allocated for outside directors).
