About the vision we aim for by 2030 and the formulation of the 6th Medium-Term Business Plan “Transforming for Growth”

In order to define our vision for 2030 and achieve sustainable growth toward that goal, our Group has formulated the 6th Medium-Term Business Plan "Transforming for Growth," which ends in fiscal 2026.

The 6th Medium-Term Business Plan takes into account issues of the 5th Medium Medium-Term Business Plan, depicts the company's vision for 2030, and views the period up to 2026 as a period of transformation for achieving future growth.

Furthermore, given that the business environment has changed significantly since Medium-Term Business Plan was formulated, we will continue to strengthen our business foundation to create a highly responsive system that can withstand changes in the environment.
