The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.In connection with the retirement and appointment of officers scheduled to take place upon the conclusion of the annual general meeting of shareholders, the company will designate the newly appointed outside officers as independent officers. The company cites as the reason for their appointment that they do not meet any of the independence criteria and are not at risk of having conflicts of interest with general shareholders.
