We aim to improve our corporate value further through the timely and appropriate disclosure of our corporate information and bi-directional communications with our shareholders and investors.

Communications with Our Shareholders and Investors

IR Policies

IR activities based on our policies

Our basic policy for our investor relations (IR) activities is to accurately disclose corporate information to our shareholders and investors promptly, appropriately, and on a timely basis in a fair, understandable manner. With these efforts, we seek to build trust with our shareholders and investors.

IR Policy

Shareholders' Meetings

Towards open shareholders' meetings

We position shareholders' meetings as the supreme decision-making body of our company and a precious opportunity for our management team to communicate directly with our shareholders. At these meetings, we listen to our shareholders, answer their questions, and strive to explain our ideas fully. To ensure participation by as many shareholders as possible, we avoid holding the meetings on days when many other companies hold theirs.

We also use visual content and narrations to help participants better understand the agenda. These are part of our efforts to ensure highly accessible meetings with shareholders.

Using IR Tools

Using IR tools for timely and appropriate disclosure

We send a newsletter explaining our businesses to our shareholders every quarter. We have also set up investor relations pages on our website where we provide extensive information, including financial highlights and other financial data. The pages also show the planned dates of announcements of financial statements and other IR schedules. On the website, investors can send opinions and questions by e-mail. We endeavor to respond to the e-mails quickly.

Explanatory Meetings

Holding meetings to provide information

We hold a results briefing for corporate investors and financial analysts every quarter. We also hold explanatory meetings as necessary - to announce our business plan, for example. We record the audio of those meetings, and the audio files are accessible from our website. In addition, we are proactive in meeting with individual corporate investors and financial analysts both in Japan and overseas, with 240 meetings in Japan and 25 overseas in 2009. We also provide information to general investors at company information sessions held by securities companies, for example.

Site Tours

Observing our facilities

We organize site tours for corporate investors and financial analysts as part of our efforts to help them develop insight into our operations.

In April 2011, we held a site tour in the car carrier terminal in Singapore in which we have a stake. We got favorable comments from the tour participants that they enjoyed a valuable visit to the facility at first hand.
