Waseda Academy Co., Ltd. ( (JP:4718) ) just unveiled an update.
Waseda Academy will continue and amend its performance-based stock remuneration plan for directors, maintaining a Board Incentive Plan Trust structure that links share-based compensation to the achievement of medium-term management targets and directors’ positions. The move is intended to strengthen alignment between management incentives, business performance and corporate value, while allowing more flexible share acquisition in response to market and stock price conditions.
Under the revised plan, directors meeting specified eligibility and conduct criteria will receive company shares and cash equivalents based on points granted annually over a new target period from the fiscal year ending March 2027 through 2029. The trust term will be extended for approximately three years from September 2026 and may be further rolled forward with additional contributions, keeping total trust funding within shareholder-approved limits and reinforcing a recurring, performance-linked equity compensation framework for top management.
