PERSOL HOLDINGS CO.,LTD. [2181.T]
TOKYO, May 18 (Pulse News Wire) – Persol Holdings CO.,LTD. (2181.T) decided to extend its stock-based compensation plan through March 2029, increasing the equity component to align with shareholders' interests.
The board approved the continuation and partial revision of the plan during a meeting held today. Under the revised plan, executives will receive shares based on performance metrics and fixed points, with adjustments made according to the average acquisition price of company shares within the trust period. Performance-linked points will fluctuate between 0% and 200%. Starting from April 01, 2026, financial indicators such as TSR, adjusted EBITDA, and ROIC will be used alongside non-financial measures like value creation goals and employee engagement. For non-executive directors, the plan remains unchanged, offering fixed-point allocations annually without performance linkage.
The total amount of funds allocated to the trust will cap at 9 billion yen per fiscal year for executive directors and up to ¥57 million for three-year cycles for outside directors who are not audit committee members. The extended plan will be presented for shareholder approval at the upcoming annual general meeting scheduled for June 23, 2026. Shares acquired through the trust will not be voted upon during the term to maintain neutrality in governance. Any residual shares and dividend income at the end of the trust period will either be utilized for future acquisitions or donated to unrelated organizations if the trust is terminated. Persol Holdings aims to enhance long-term corporate value and ensure alignment with stakeholders’ expectations through this incentive structure.
