In accordance with the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act and other laws and regulations, as well as the “Timely Disclosure of Corporate Information, etc.” (hereinafter, the “Timely Disclosure Regulations”) set forth in the Tokyo Stock Exchange’s Securities Listing Regulations, the Company discloses information promptly on the basis of transparency, fairness, and continuity. Even where various laws and regulations and the Timely Disclosure Regulations do not apply, the Company proactively and fairly discloses information that it judges to be important or beneficial in helping shareholders and investors understand the Company.
However, we do not disclose personal information, customer information, or information that would infringe upon the rights of related parties.
Information stipulated by the Timely Disclosure Regulations is disclosed through the Timely Disclosure Network (TDnet) provided by the Tokyo Stock Exchange in accordance with those regulations. After the information is made public through this system, it is promptly posted on our company website. Information not subject to the Timely Disclosure Regulations but that we judge to be important or beneficial is disclosed widely, including by posting on our company website.
We have established Insider Trading Management Rules and Information Security Rules to prevent insider trading. We also hold study sessions on insider trading regulations each year for officers and employees and distribute explanatory materials to ensure a thorough understanding and awareness of the purpose of these regulations. In addition, we send out internal notifications about insider trading, as appropriate.
Information the Company discloses that pertains to earnings forecasts, future projections, strategies, targets, and other items that are not past or current facts are forward-looking statements. These statements represent plans, expectations, and judgments based on the information currently available and certain assumptions that the Company deems reasonable. Therefore, actual business results, etc. may differ from the disclosed earnings forecasts, etc. due to fluctuating factors such as economic circumstances and other uncertainties.
To ensure fairness and timeliness, we have designated the period from the day following the end of each fiscal period (including interim periods) to the date of the earnings announcement as a “quiet period.” Please understand that we refrain from commenting on or answering questions regarding financial results during this period. However, if events that require disclosure under the Timely Disclosure Regulations occur, such as when the outlook differs significantly from previously announced earnings forecasts, we will disclose such information as appropriate, even during the quiet period.
We strive to put in place and enhance our internal structure to ensure appropriate information disclosure in accordance with various laws and regulations and the Timely Disclosure Regulations, based on this disclosure policy.
