TOKYO, May 28 (Pulse News Wire) – SHINKO Inc. (7120.T) announced today that its board of directors approved the introduction of a performance-based restricted share plan aimed at incentivizing long-term value creation and aligning executive compensation with shareholder interests.
The plan, which requires shareholders' approval at the annual general meeting scheduled for June 19, 2026, would grant shares or cash-settled share awards based on performance targets set over a three-year period. Under the proposed framework, up to 120,000 shares ordinary shares could be granted annually, with a total cap of 60 million shares over three years. Each share's issuance price would be determined based on the closing price of SHINKO’s stock on the Tokyo Stock Exchange prior to the board resolution date, ensuring fair valuation.
Additionally, the plan includes restrictions on transferring shares until executives meet certain performance criteria or leave their positions within the company. The company also detailed conditions for lifting restrictions, such as continuous service during defined performance periods and achievement of key operational metrics outlined in the medium-term business plan. In cases of non-compliance with regulations or failure to meet performance goals, the company reserves the right to reclaim the awarded shares without compensation.
This initiative underscores SHINKO’s commitment to enhancing governance and aligning executive incentives with sustainable growth objectives.
