Disclosure of Management Strategies with Cost of Capital and Stock Price in Mind Is Still Limited

Regardless of “TSE request,” only 31% of prime market listed companies disclosed “measures to realize management with awareness of cost of capital and stock price” in their corporate governance reports.
The lack of ready disclosure measures on companies’ side seems to be the reason why few companies disclosed information, but many of those that did are also poor in content.
For companies with large shareholders and low P/B, the parent company has not yet TOB or sold the company, which may be the reason for the delay in disclosure.
