Stakeholder Communications

Basic ideas and policies

The Resonac Group aims to be a company that is trusted and rated highly by all stakeholders by fulfilling its social responsibilities. Having dialogue with stakeholders is essential for the Group to identify society’s needs in an appropriate manner and prevent becoming trapped in dogmatic ideas. We therefore attribute importance to communication with our stakeholders and will expand opportunities to conduct dialogue with them.

 

Relationships with shareholders and institutional investors

The Resonac Group regards IR activities as those that help shareholders and investors deepen their understanding of the Group’s corporate management, business activities and strategies, so that they can evaluate the Group’s corporate value in a fair manner. Based on this idea, we are committed to:

  1. (1) Fostering communication with shareholders and investors and increasing our management transparency, and
  2. (2) Disclosing corporate information about the Group in an easy-to-understand, fair, timely and accurate manner to help shareholders and investors deepen their understanding of and trust in the Group.

In 2022, we resumed face-to-face communication (while still making partial use of online meetings and teleconferencing) in conducting one-on-one interviews, overseas IR efforts, and on-site briefings for individual investors.

Relationships with employees and their families

As a precondition for the Resonac Group’s growth, we think it is necessary to ensure that employees who are “core players for value creation” can work with vigor to meet society’s needs. Accordingly, we are working to communicate extensively with employees, providing them with workplaces where they can work with satisfaction, and to become an enterprise that they can be proud of.
