Summary

Fuji Media Holdings held its annual shareholders’ meeting on June 25, where the proposal to elect SBI Holdings Chairman Yoshitaka Kitao as a director received only 27% support.

In contrast, Kenji Shimizu’s election was approved with an approval rate of 82.4%. The shareholders’ meeting also addressed the company culture at Fuji HD, emphasizing the importance of management centered around respect for human rights. This has drawn attention to Fuji HD’s future management policies.

Log: It seems that at the Fuji HD shareholders’ meeting, only 27% voted in favor of Chairman Kitao. That’s quite low, isn’t it?
Chako: Really? That low?
Log: Yeah. Since President Shimizu received 82.4% approval, it shows that his management policies are well-supported.
Navi: I think the difference in approval rates reflects the shareholders’ varying expectations and trust.
Chako: I see, so there might have been concerns about Chairman Kitao’s proposal!
Log: Exactly. It’ll be interesting to see how Fuji HD’s policies develop from here.

Admin’s Note

I feel that the results of Fujisankei Communications Group’s shareholders’ meeting are an important indicator of the company’s management policies and shareholder trust. The fact that only 27% of shareholders voted in favor of Chairman Kitao’s appointment suggests that they hold a cautious stance toward him. On the other hand, President Shimizu receiving strong support indicates that his management philosophy is well-regarded by shareholders. With the emphasis on transforming corporate culture and respecting human rights, I find it very interesting to see how Fujisankei’s direction will evolve going forward.
