FUJIFILM Holdings Corporation
We formulated and published the FUJIFILM Holdings Corporation Corporate Governance Guidelines (“Guidelines”), recognizing that corporate governance is an important management issue, as the fundamental basis for the FUJIFILM Group to achieve sustainable growth and increase its corporate value, and to contribute to the sustainable development of society. We have revised the Guidelines to reflect the Corporate Governance Code of the Tokyo Stock Exchange and our policy for strengthening corporate governance.
The Guidelines stipulate the roles and duties of the Board of Directors (“BoD”) as follows: (i) to decide on basic management policies, strategies, and important matters relating to business execution, and (ii) to supervise the execution of business. To ensure the effectiveness of the BoD, evaluations and hearing sessions, etc. are conducted by each Director and Audit & Supervisory Board Member, and after analysis, evaluation, and discussion of improvement measures at the BoD, we publish a summary of the results. For the purpose of securing transparency and objectivity, we periodically engage a third-party organization for part of the questionnaire creation and evaluation analysis.
We conducted an effectiveness evaluation of the BoD meetings held in 2025, and the results were reported and discussed at the BoD. The following is a summary of the evaluation results.
Evaluation to assess whether the BoD is fully performing to expectations, in light of its roles at our company.
We are organized as a Company with an Audit & Supervisory Board, and the BoD makes decisions on basic management policies, strategies, and important matters relating to business execution, as well as supervising the execution of business. In this context, it is important that the BoD fulfil the following two roles:
- The role of making decisions with a high-level of knowledge for each business and thorough understanding of the assets, such as technology and human resources, in line with the robust business portfolio that we have built to date.
- The role of ensuring that the orientation of execution of business aligns with the medium- and long-term values demanded by society, in order to balance economic and social value, with the aim of achieving a sustainable society.
