Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

Nichias ( (JP:5393) ) has shared an announcement.

Nichias will overhaul its director remuneration framework, replacing a long-standing monthly cap with an annual ceiling of ¥500 million, including up to ¥60 million for outside directors, subject to shareholder approval. The new scheme introduces performance-linked cash bonuses alongside fixed and stock-based pay, with a guideline mix of 60% base, 20% performance-linked, and 20% stock-based remuneration, while outside directors continue to receive only fixed fees.

The revision is designed to tie executive pay more closely to single-year performance indicators such as consolidated operating income, margin and selected ESG metrics, reinforcing alignment with shareholders and the goals of its “Shikumi 130” plan. By benchmarking compensation against external survey data and emphasizing sustainable corporate value, Nichias aims to strengthen governance, enhance incentives for management, and improve its ability to attract and retain talent in a changing business environment.
