Chori Overhauls Executive Pay to Link Incentives With New Medium-Term Plan and ESG Goals

Chori Co., Ltd. ( (JP:8014) ) has issued an announcement.

Chori Co., Ltd. has revamped its executive compensation system to better align management incentives with its new three-year Medium-Term Management Plan, Chori Innovation Plan 2028, and the goal of enhancing medium- to long-term corporate value. The company will shift its pay mix by increasing the share-based Board Benefit Trust-Restricted Stock component while reducing bonuses, and will base annual bonuses on operating profit instead of profit before income taxes to tie rewards more closely to operational performance.

For share-based compensation, Chori is replacing cumulative profit before income taxes with ROE, relative TSR versus TOPIX, employee engagement, and the ratio of female managers as key evaluation indicators, reflecting a stronger focus on capital efficiency, shareholder returns and ESG factors. The company is also centralizing all compensation decisions, including bonuses, under the Board of Directors to improve transparency and accountability to shareholders and other stakeholders.
