In conjunction with the start of the 2026 Medium-Term Management Plan in FY2024, we fundamentally revised our Corporate Philosophy Structure and reorganized it as “Corporate Philosophy and Our Values.” To this end, we conducted interviews with executives and employees and carried out a questionnaire-based survey. From the many opinions received, we compiled a list of ideas that have been important to us in the past and those that we will need in the future.
For example, “Customer Delight” expresses our commitment to providing “solutions that exceed expectations” for both society and our customers. Bringing joy to customers by providing exceptional value also enhances our employees' sense of accomplishment, satisfaction, and fulfillment. I aim to create a company where employees take pride in their work and everyone is engaged and enthusiastic. I will continue promoting our values throughout the Group to firmly instill them in every employee worldwide. I want these values to become the foundation for employees' decisions when issues arise and need to choose the right course of action.
In addition, we will continue contributing to the development of a safe and secure society through our business by reducing Greenhouse Gas emissions, introducing eco-friendly products and other measures to contribute to a decarbonized society, as well as promoting initiatives to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
We look forward to your continued support and encouragement.
