In Order to Listen from our Shareholders

Conducting Questionnaires with our Shareholders

We are conducting annual questionnaires with our shareholders at the same time as the issuance of our Term End Financial Report in order to hear from them later on. We started this from the fiscal year of 2004 and have conducted nine times in total so far. In the fiscal year of 2013, we were able to hear from 815 questionnaire respondents as to their motivation of the purchase of our shares and information usable for some improvement in the future. Also, we have made some improvements mainly on our structure of Term End Financial Reports to present it in a more straightforward manner. We will hereby continue to utilize such information to keep improving our IR activities.
