Lisa Jiang’s rating is based on several factors that reflect the current state of Keyence’s corporate governance and shareholder engagement. The recent shareholder meeting results showed that the approval ratio for the appropriation of retained earnings, such as dividends, remained relatively stable compared to the previous year. This stability suggests that there are no significant changes in shareholder returns expected in the near term.
Additionally, the approval ratings for board members, including the President and Chairman, have seen slight variations, with a decrease for the President and a stable rating for the Chairman. These factors indicate a consistent but cautious outlook on the company’s leadership and governance structure, which contributes to the Hold rating. Overall, these elements suggest that while Keyence is maintaining its current course, there are no immediate catalysts for a significant change in its stock performance.
