Message from Management
A year of striding forward under our slogan of “Aluminum lightens the world”
Shinji Tanaka
Representative Director, President
I wish to express my sincere thanks to all shareholders and investors for their support and advice.
In 2021, the Company announced UACJ VISION 2030 at the same time as its third mid-term management plan, and has since been pushing forward with measures to achieve both initiatives. Up to FY2023, in addition to moving ahead with the major policies under the third mid-term management plan of completing structural reforms and strengthening the foundation for growth, we built momentum in the promotion of sustainability. In FY2023, which is the final year of the third mid-term management plan, we are planning for ¥40 billion in business profit. 2024 will see the start of the fourth mid-term management plan, which makes it an important year in terms of taking a giant step toward our goals. Customers have become keenly aware of environmental performance as a criterion for selecting materials in recent years, and I feel that they are increasingly looking to aluminum as a means of reducing environmental impacts.
Over the period of the fourth mid-term management plan, as an aluminum manufacturer that creates environmental value we will of course be sure to convey our growth story to shareholders, while strengthening our capital efficiency management with an awareness of the cost of capital.
We will maintain our efforts to enhance corporate value by taking an even more active approach to dialogue, and thus request the continued encouragement and guidance of shareholders and investors going forward.
