The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The company stated that it had determined that the 4 outside directors remained suitable for their roles because they can appropriately advise on overall management and supervise the execution of business operations. It also stated that all of them meet both the Tokyo Stock Exchange's independence criteria and the company's own criteria, and that it had determined that there is no risk of conflicts of interest with general shareholders.
