Shareholders and Investors

Introducing our approach and communication policies with shareholders and investors

In order to ensure accountability by providing shareholders and investors with appropriate, accurate and timely information, Yamaha Motor engages in dialogue with our investors and shareholders through a specialized division it has established to handle investor and shareholder relations. It is led by the President and Representative Director and managed by the directors in charge of planning and financial affairs.

In addition to the annual shareholders’ meeting and quarterly earnings briefings, the division holds IR meetings with investors from within and outside of Japan, and organizes business briefings. Furthermore, the division discloses IR information on the Company’s website, operates a website to provide information to individual investors, and makes videos of earnings briefings and briefings for individual investors publicly available, in an effort to proactively disseminate information so that even more shareholders and investors have a better understanding of Yamaha Motor’s business strategies.

Through the integrated reports we have been issuing since 2019, we endeavor to ensure understanding of our medium- to long-term value creation by explaining our philosophy and ideal state and the strategies and strengths that will make them a reality in a way that shows the link between them.

We also actively provide opportunities for dialogue with shareholders and investors. In 2022 we held a total of 253 dialogues, including on topics concerning ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance), aimed at sustained growth and a medium- to long-term increase in corporate value.

We have also positioned these opportunities, which have become especially lively since we began issuing integrated reports, as places for us to receive advice from our shareholders and investors. The opinions and questions we hear through the dialogues are shared with management and directors as needed. As a result of discussions held with the opinions and feedback as reference, we are executing a variety of measures including appointing women and foreign citizens are directors, linking ESG initiatives to executive compensation, promoting the sale of cross-held shares, and disclosing our carbon neutrality strategy by region. We will continue this cycle going forward as we aim for sustained growth and a medium- to long-term increase in corporate value.

Furthermore, Yamaha Motor Corporation has established an Employee Shareholding Association to help each employee build wealth. Employees making a greater contribution to business performance will be one factor driving an increase in the Company’s share price, which will also increase the value of the assets held by employees.

FY2023 Number of dialogues 308

To achieve sustained growth in corporate value, we provide opportunities for dialogue with outside directors participating in order to create communication that allows the Company's shareholders and us to deepen the mutual understanding.
