Basic Views on Corporate Governance

To fulfill our obligation to meet the requirements of all our stakeholders, the basic principle of FURUNO’s management is continuous improvement in our company’s value. In order to achieve this, we strive for legality, suitability and efficiency in all of our business activities, and at the same time are making every effort to fulfill our responsibility to provide explanations to our stakeholders and increase the transparency of our business.

    

Corporate Governance System

As of May 24, 2018, the Group’s Board of Directors consists of eleven Directors, of whom two are External Directors.

In order to execute management decision-making in a logical and efficient manner, our Board of Directors will determine the important items, and will hold Regular Board Meetings once a month and Special Board Meetings as the need arises. This will not only allow us to determine the matters most important to business in a timely fashion, but also put in place a system in which the Board can more easily supervise the Representative Director's execution of business operations. Additionally, so that we can respond quickly to changes in the business environment, the term of office of our Directors is one year.

    

We employ an Audit & Supervisory Board system for monitoring of our business activities, and as of May 24, 2018 there are three Audit & Supervisory Board Members, of whom two are External Audit & Supervisory Board Members.

    

The Audit & Supervisory Board Members follow the auditing directives and work division designated by the Audit & Supervisory Board, sit in on important meetings of, for example, the Board of Directors, and in addition to monitoring the situation of business practices also give opinions and proposals as appropriate. The Audit & Supervisory Board Members also monitors our company throughout the year, and as the need arises also research the various companies in the Group.
