TOKYO, Jun 29 (Pulse News Wire) – Uoriki CO.,LTD. (7596.T) announced the results of its board effectiveness evaluation conducted among its directors and auditors as of March 2026.
The assessment involved 11 members through a questionnaire focusing on board composition, deliberation topics, performance evaluations, and remuneration methods. The evaluation confirmed that the board's operations since fiscal 2020, primarily conducted via remote meetings, maintained appropriate discussions under a balanced structure comprising eight directors, including three external directors with specialized expertise such as certified public accountants, lawyers, and experienced executives. However, there was a call for strengthening management oversight roles within the board and enhancing diverse perspectives, particularly in IT, international expansion, consumer engagement, and product development.
In response to these findings, the company appointed two new directors during its recent shareholders' meeting—one managing director and CFO, and another overseas-based executive who also serves as an external director. Additionally, the firm plans to further review the optimal composition of the board, including increasing the number of female and external directors. Discussions will also focus on enriching agenda items, internal controls, capital policies, and refining performance evaluation criteria for directors.
This comprehensive approach underscores UORIKI’s commitment to improving governance and operational efficiency moving forward.
