"Tradeable Share Market Cap" = "Market Cap" × "Tradeable Share Ratio"
The Medium-term Management Plan has four basic strategies: first, further development and expansion of growth areas; second, enhancement of core businesses and value creation; third, strengthening of the foundations and expansion of business overseas; and fourth, establishment of a resilient management base. We will carry out priority measures based on these strategies and step up investor relations (IR) activities to increase our recognition in the market with a view to boosting our corporate value.
According to the Tokyo Stock Exchange's initial assessment, our tradeable share ratio is 54.4% and this meets the relevant requirement for listing on the Prime market. We will additionally implement efforts to increase the tradeable share ratio in a bid to raise the
tradeable share market cap.
