[000004] II. Corporate Governance Status
[100000] 1. General Corporate Governance Policy
A. Overall Description of Policy Direction and Key Considerations:
Based on the management philosophy of 'Community of Shared Destiny', 'Customer-Oriented', and 'Technology and Quality', the company provides top-tier products and services. Through fair and transparent responsible management, we enhance the rights and interests of stakeholders including shareholders, customers, and employees, and pursue mutual prosperity based on trust and respect. We are committed to building and operating a governance structure to implement this. In 2020, through the spin-off of the PCB business and conversion to a holding company structure, we further strengthened governance transparency. This governance reorganization has become the foundation for establishing an efficient management system and realizing responsible management. Additionally, the company has enacted a Corporate Governance Charter that codifies 'Board-Centered Responsible Management' and made it public on its website, clarifying shareholder rights protection and the responsibilities and roles of the board and audit body. Through this, we enhance management transparency and continuously strengthen trust with internal and external stakeholders.
B. Unique Governance Characteristics:
The company's board consists of 4 directors with expertise in different fields, enabling rapid and effective decision-making based on sufficient discussion. Of these, outside directors comprise at least one-quarter of the total board, ensuring that the board can function independently from management and controlling shareholders. Following the principle of 'Board-Centered Responsible Management', important management decisions are made through the board. From the start of the disclosure period to the report submission date, the board has been held 13 times, with 100% director attendance. Outside directors devote sufficient time and effort to faithful performance of duties and do their best to perform their authority and roles as directors. Going forward, the company will continue efforts to enhance management transparency and efficiency and maximize corporate value through board operations with independence, expertise, and efficiency.
