Basic policy
The shares of the Company are in principle freely tradable, and are traded freely and actively on markets by numerous investors. Therefore, the Company believes that the persons to control decision-making over the financial and business policies of the Company should be decided through free trading in the shares of the Company, and that the final decision as to whether to accept a purchase offer for shares in a volume that will enable the purchaser to control decision-making over the financial and business policies of the Company should be made based on the free will of all shareholders.
Meanwhile, the Company believes that persons who control decision-making over the financial and business policies of the Company must be able to maintain trust relationships among the various stakeholders such as shareholders and protect and enhance the corporate value of the Company and the common interests of the shareholders over the mid-to-long term.
Therefore, the Company believes that persons who make inappropriate large-scale purchase offers or perform similar actions that may harm the corporate value of the Company or common interests of the shareholders are not suitable for those who are to control decision-making over the financial and business policies of the Company. In the case that such persons make large-scale purchase offers of the Company’s stock, the Company will try to disclose information in a proper and timely manner and take actions which are appropriate at that point in time, aiming at ensuring and improving the common interests of the shareholders.
