The latest update is out from Kameda Seika Co., Ltd. ( (JP:2220) ).

Kameda Seika’s board has approved a proposal to amend its Articles of Incorporation, notably shortening directors’ terms of office from two years to one year to clarify management responsibilities and enable faster responses to shifts in the business environment. The proposal will be put to a vote at the 69th Ordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting on June 23, 2026, and, if approved, will take effect the same day.

In line with the governance change, the company also plans to revise its rules on dividends so that dividend of surplus and certain related matters can be decided by board resolution, and dividends may be paid to shareholders of record as of March 31 or September 30 each year. These measures are aimed at increasing management flexibility and aligning the company’s capital policy and profit distribution framework more closely with Japanese corporate law and evolving shareholder expectations.
