Furthermore, we increased the term-enddividend by 2 yen from the initial forecast of 21 yen to 23 yen, and the annual dividend, including the interim dividend, was 44 yen. We will continue to strive for a long-termand stable return of profits and to increase the entire group's corporate value to meet our shareholders' expectations and be worthy of their support.
Aspiring to achieve sustainable growth based on the Medium-termManagement Plan
Our group is currently implementing a medium-termmanagement plan with the term ending March 2025 as its final year. With "provide the world with a place where people can gather, communicate with each other, and create social development and people's happiness" as our basic policy, we are working to resolve social issues through our business, and we have set quantitative targets of net sales of 100 billion yen, an ordinary income of 20 billion yen, and a net income of 14 billion yen.
Moreover, we have set the ESG perspective as one of our priori- ties. Taking the opportunity of our transition to the TSE Prime Market in April this year, we have formulated a Sustainability Vision as a guideline for contributing to the realization of a sustainable society and improving corporate value over the medium to long term. The key issues of the Sustainability Vision are environmental protection, regional revitalization, and human resource development. Since its founding, the group's corporate philosophy has been to "minimize the waste of non-reproducibleresources and contribute to the lasting prosperity of humankind, animals, and plants on the Earth." Thus, we have been developing business activities that contribute to the sustainability of society, and we will further promote specific initiatives in line with our Vision and key issues in the future. Further- more, in June of this year, we transitioned into a company with an audit and supervisory committee to further strengthen governance and enhance management flexibility. Through these measures, our group will achieve sustainable growth.

To our Shareholders

Summary of The 23rd Business Year

The Real Estate Revitalization Business Led the Significant Recovery in Earnings, and Our Company is on a Growth Track Again.

We hope that things are going well with all of our shareholders, and would like to express our sincere gratitude for your continued patronage. In addition, we would like to express our heartfelt condolences to those who have been affected by the infection with COVID-19 and to those who have been affected by the spread of COVID-19, and we would like to express our sincere appreciation to all medical professionals.

In the business environment surrounding our group in the 23rd term, the omicron variant spread worldwide from the beginning of 2022, and the situation was unpredictable. In addition, the rise in raw material prices due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine has spurred an increase in prices, and monetary easing measures have been downsizing and monetary tightening has been adopted worldwide. While paying close attention to such market trends, our group has taken thorough measures to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus, and all employees have worked together to resolve customer problems. In particular, in the office business division, we promoted the sales of renovated properties that were turned into high-performance and high-value-added buildings in collaboration with all divisions. As a result, it significantly drove the group's earnings. Thus, both net sales and ordinary income recovered significantly, 19.5% and 62.3%, respectively, and we were able to return to a growth track.

Transition to a Company with an Audit and Supervisory Committee

Enhance Management Supervision Functions and Strengthen Corporate Governance

With the approval of the 23rd Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 21, 2022, our group has transitioned from a company with a board of auditors to a company with an audit and supervisory committee.

A company with an audit and supervisory committee is a stock company's institutional design made possible by the amendments to the Companies Act in June 2014. Instead of having a board of auditors, the company sets up an audit and supervisory committee dominated by outside directors to strengthen the auditing and supervision function of the board of directors.

Unlike conventional corporate auditors, directors who are members of the audit and supervisory committee are directors with voting rights at the board of directors. In a company with an audit and supervisory committee, the person in charge of auditing has more substantial authority than in a company with a board of auditors, which enables the company to enhance its auditing and supervisory function and to strengthen its corporate governance.
