New Long-Term Vision and New Mid-Term Management Plan
The nine-year "YUASA VISION 360" ending in FY2025 March has concluded
The next five years will focus on building a foundation for continuous growth as "YUASA vision 370"
※ [Overseas Strategy] While overseas transaction volume (imports and overseas sales) was previously used as an indicator, the target has been changed to actual results for overseas net sales (overseas sales) only.
※ [Setting ROIC Targets] Instead of the previous ROE, ROIC has been adopted as a KPI for proactive investment and effectiveness verification to realize high-gradient growth, to reform
awareness of "capital efficiency" at the field level, and to strengthen portfolio management (visualization of earning power).
