Nitto Denko Revamps Executive Pay With Performance-Linked Restricted Shares

Nitto Denko ( (JP:6988) ) has provided an update.

Nitto Denko Corporation has decided to overhaul its executive pay framework by introducing a new performance-linked restricted share remuneration system for internal directors, subject to approval at its June 2026 shareholders’ meeting. The scheme is designed to raise the proportion of share-based compensation, better tie rewards to medium- and long-term performance under its new management plan, and more closely align directors’ interests with those of shareholders.

Under the plan, eligible directors will receive monetary claims after a preset performance evaluation period, which will be contributed in kind to receive Nitto Denko shares subject to transfer restrictions until retirement. If approved, the new scheme will replace two existing share-based remuneration programs after their respective evaluation periods and final payments, and it will cap annual grants at 1,000,000 shares, with a similar framework also scheduled for vice presidents.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:6988) stock is a Buy with a Yen4600.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Nitto Denko stock, see the JP:6988 Stock Forecast page.
