Internal Structure for Timely Disclosure of the Company’s Information

Structure for timely disclosure of information

The Company’s internal structure for the timely disclosure of corporate information is outlined below.

At the Company and each subsidiary in the Group, the person responsible for information handling and the department responsible for information disclosure keep control over and manage important decisions, emerging facts, and information on financial results. This shall be done after they have been viewed by the president, each responsible director, or each responsible employee. The responsible person or department shall then make decisions on whether such information falls under matters to be disclosed while reflecting on the timely disclosure rules or investor relations (IR) practices, and disclose them, depending on such decision. Namely, this shall be done in a timely manner after obtaining approval of the relevant board of directors for the decisions and information on financial results, and after identifying the emerging facts.

Information disclosed shall be made available on the Company’s website as IR information as soon as possible after the timely disclosure.
