Communication with Shareholders and Investors

Mindset

THK engages in IR activities in an effort to disclose information in a manner that is fair, impartial, expedient, accurate, and easy to understand. We strive to provide more thorough and valuable information through events such as financial results briefings and IR meetings, the investor relations section of our website, and the Integrated Report.

Activities and Results

IR Activities

While many Japanese companies have normalized holding their shareholder meetings on the same day, in an aim to have open meetings where more shareholders can participate, THK has convened its General Meeting of Shareholders on a Saturday in mid-March (mid-June prior to 2017) every year since 1998. Furthermore, an exhibition is held after the General Meeting of Shareholders in order to deepen shareholders’ understanding of THK’s business.
In addition, an IR Department was established directly beneath the President’s Office in 2002 as a means to reduce management risks and strengthen the dialogue between THK and capital markets. As a specific example of their efforts, in addition to having the top executives present the company’s results and strategy at a semiannual financial results briefing, those executives’ visits to institutional investors overseas that began in 2000 were turned into a routine* practice. This has resulted in the percentage of foreign-owned shares increasing from 23.2% in the 1999 fiscal year to 39.8% in the 2023 fiscal year. THK will continue striving to be a company that is evaluated highly on a global stage through its various IR activities.

^* This practice was discontinued after 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
