TOKYO, Jan 21 (Pulse News Wire) – Kubota Pharmaceutical Holdings CO.,LTD. (4596.T) announced today that its CEO, Yoshi Kubota, has withdrawn his compensation due to the recent decline in share prices.
The decision was approved during a board meeting held. The withdrawal includes ¥15 million in performance-linked bonuses tied to the fiscal year ending December 2025, which were scheduled to be paid out in February 2026. Additionally, part of the fixed annual salary for the same period amounts to ¥32.6 million. The total amount withdrawn is ¥47.6 million.
The reason cited for the withdrawal is to acknowledge personal responsibility for the company's recent stock price slump and to demonstrate commitment to future reforms.

This move is expected to reduce accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet for the fiscal year ending December 2025.
In light of this decision, Kubota Pharmaceutical Holdings plans to intensify efforts towards sustainable growth and corporate reform.
