Full recordFilings, disclosures and news, newest first
  1. FY2020-Q3MitigatedAnnual report

    「今般、2020年3月13日開催の臨時株主総会決議により新たに独立社外取締役4名が選任されたことで、当社のコーポレート・ガバナンス、少数株主の利益保護体制に重大な悪影響が生じるリスクは概ね回避されたものと判断しております。」

    独立社外取締役不在によるガバナンス・少数株主保護体制へのリスクは、2020年3月13日の臨時株主総会で4名が選任されたことにより概ね回避されたと記載された。
  2. FY2020-Q2WorsenedAnnual report

    「これまでの岩田彰一郎氏の当社企業価値向上に対する貢献は大きく、同氏が再任されなかったことにより当社の企業価値が毀損される可能性があります。」

    取締役再任否決・独立社外取締役不在に関するリスクに加え、前代表取締役社長の再任否決による企業価値毀損の可能性が明示された。
  3. FY2020-Q1MaterialisedAnnual report

    「しかし、上記記載の当社第56回定時株主総会において、ヤフー株式会社およびプラス株式会社が、当社前独立社外取締役戸田一雄、宮田秀明および斉藤惇の各氏の再任に反対票を投じ、その結果、各氏の再任も否決されたため、当社には当四半期報告書提出日現在、独立社外取締役が不在となっております。」

    前 filing で可能性として示されていた独立社外取締役不在リスクが、3名の再任否決により実際に発生した。代表取締役社長の交代も発生したが、提出日時点では経営の混乱は生じていないと説明している。
  4. FY2019First statedAnnual report

    「If the reappointment of the 3 independent outside directors proposed under Proposal No. 2, the director-election proposal at the Company’s 56th Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, were rejected and no other independent outside directors were elected, the Company would have no independent outside directors, potentially seriously impairing its corporate governance and, consequently, its framework for protecting minority shareholders.」

    In light of Yahoo and Plus voting against the reappointment of the representative director and 3 independent outside directors, the filing described potential management disruption and the impact of having no independent outside directors on minority shareholder protection.
