Governance

Corporate Governance

Basic Approach

The Hagiwara Electric Group is fully aware of the importance of corporate governance, and we are working to improve the transparency and soundness of our management. Compliance is at the heart of corporate governance. In all our business activities, not only do we strictly comply with laws and regulations, but we also act with the awareness that we are a member of society.

Corporate Governance System

Following the management integration with Satori Electric Co., Ltd. and the resulting transition to a wholly owned subsidiary of MIRAINI Holdings, we adopted a corporate governance structure with an Audit & Supervisory Board Member on April 1, 2026. The Board of Directors currently consists of four Directors and one Audit & Supervisory Board Member. Furthermore, we have adopted an Executive Officer System to enhance the effectiveness of corporate governance and achieve swift and agile business execution by clearly defining the respective roles of management decision-making and supervisory functions and business execution functions. Under this system, Executive Officers are responsible for business execution according to their respective positions, and Directors are appointed from among Executive Officers at or above a certain level. Currently, the Company has four Executive Officers who concurrently serve as Directors and three Executive Officers who do not serve as Directors.
Our Directors and Executive Officers attend monthly meetings of the Board of Directors, where they examine matters concerning the overall management of the corporate group and provide recommendations. The Audit and Supervisory Board Member audits the execution of duties by Directors by attending meetings of the Board of Directors and other important meetings, reviewing important documents, and conducting interviews with Directors, the internal audit department, and other departments responsible for business execution.
In addition, to strengthen overall corporate governance initiatives across the Group, the Company has established a Risk Management Committee and an Internal Control Committee, each chaired by a Director appointed by the Board of Directors of Hagiwara Electric Holdings Co., Ltd.

Board of Directors

The Board of Directors is clearly positioned as the decision-making body for management policies and strategies and the supervisory body for business execution. The Board meets monthly to deliberate and resolve important matters, discuss business operations, and make decisions regarding the execution of business.

Audit and Supervisory Board Members

Audit & Supervisory Board Members attend meetings of the Board of Directors and other important meetings in accordance with the audit policies and audit plans established by the Audit & Supervisory Board Members. They also conduct audits of the execution of duties by Directors, including requesting reports from subsidiaries when necessary.

Risk Management Committee

With the aim of enhancing the sustainable corporate value of our Group and its consolidated subsidiaries, the Risk Management Committee promotes a risk management framework to appropriately manage various internal and external risks associated with business activities.

Internal Control Committee

The Internal Control Committee establishes compliance and internal control systems, regularly verifies their appropriateness and effectiveness, and promotes measures to address identified issues.

Based on the belief that it is essential to accurately deal with various risks that may have a significant impact on the management of the Hagiwara Electric Group, we are striving to develop and bolster our risk management system through measures that include identifying and preventing potential risks through communication with stakeholders and formulating measures to minimize damage in the event that risks materialize.

Risk Management System

In recognition of the importance of disaster prevention/BCP (Business Continuity Planning), we have also established cross-functional frameworks for individual initiatives. These frameworks enable risks and countermeasures to be considered from specialized perspectives.

To ensure the anonymity and confidentiality of whistleblowers, we have established a reporting channel with an independent external service provider, and another reporting channel with an external law firm that provides professional advice. When a whistleblowing report is received, it is promptly forwarded to the appropriate person within the company. Reports can be made anonymously, and those who investigate and take corrective action regarding internal reports are required to strictly manage the content of the report, the investigation process, and the evidence, and the Company regulations prohibit any retaliatory actions or disadvantageous treatment of whistleblowers.

Anti-Corruption

We do not engage in bribery, improperly provide benefits, or give or receive undue advantages in any business activities. We comply with domestic and international laws and regulations, as well as international standards, and ensure fair and transparent transactions. We also strive to promote an understanding of anti-corruption among all officers and employees,and will take strict action against any violations that occur.

Responsible Minerals Sourcing

The Hagiwara Electric Group recognizes that issues related to conflict minerals pose significant risks, including regional conflict, environmental degradation, and human rights violations. We acknowledge the importance of respecting human rights and ensuring responsible procurement in the international community. To confirm that the products we handle do not contain conflict minerals, we cooperate with supply chain surveys and work to promote responsible sourcing practices.

Framework for the Elimination of Anti-Social Forces

We stipulate in the "MIRAINI Group Corporate Code of Conduct" that "we shall conduct our business activities in accordance with laws, social norms, and social conscience, and shall have no relationship whatsoever with any individuals or organizations that may adversely affect social order or the sound operation of business." This policy is communicated and enforced throughout the group. In addition, we have established "Regulations for Countermeasures against Anti-Social Forces" and have developed a framework for eliminating anti-social forces, with the General Affairs and Legal Affairs Headquarters of MIRAINI Holdings serving as the responsible contact point. We work closely with Police Headquarters and the local police stations to collect relevant information and prevent any involvement with anti-social forces. We also confirm that all officers and employees have no relationship with and are not involved with anti-social forces. In addition, before commencing business with a new business partner, we conduct appropriate due diligence to confirm that the new business partner has no ties to anti-social forces. Furthermore, in the case of ongoing transactions, we conclude a "Basic Transaction Agreement," which includes clauses excluding organized crime groups and other anti-social forces, thereby establishing and operating a system to exclude anti-social forces.

The Hagiwara Electric Group recognizes that ensuring transparency in corporate accounting and fulfilling appropriate tax obligations are important responsibilities. Based on this approach, we carry out our tax-related operations in accordance with the following principles.

  • Compliance with Laws and Regulations
