To our regret, our proposal 7 was unable to obtain the agreement of some of the shareholders, mainly institutional investors. Nevertheless, our sustained efforts to provide detailed explanations about the social significance of the ASICS Foundation and its likely contribution to creation of the medium- to long-term corporate value of the ASICS Group resulted in the understanding and agreement of a majority of shareholders, and the proposal was approved and resolved. Shareholders who did not agree with the proposal have expressed concern about possible equity dilution. To allay their concerns, we will continue to pursue profitability and capital efficiency as a listed company, thereby further increasing our corporate value. The ASICS Foundation will tackle social issues related to exercise and sports in order to contribute to the sound minds and bodies of as many people as possible and realize ASICS’ founding philosophy: Anima Sana In Corpore Sano (“A Sound Mind In A Sound Body”). From now on, we will appropriately disclose the results of this foundation’s activities. We hope to receive the support of many of you. *Major shareholders who did not support this proposal (in alphabetical order): (Certain shareholders have requested that disclosure of their names be deferred at this time. Accordingly, additional shareholder names will be added once disclosure becomes possible.) |
