Cyberagent (4751) | More than a One-Hit Wonder
- Supersized profits in the game division will of course normalise, but there are strategies to extend profits in the segment

AGM Is the Highest Body for a Company, but Have Japanese Companies Got Too Used to It Not Being So?
- The fact at least 80% of votes are approved in company agenda shows how large the presence of ruling shareholders is and how little interest there is from ordinary shareholders.
- The ruling shareholder structure with cross-shareholdings has made this watered-down for Japanese companies. Companies should strive to increase shareholder interest. To this end, information disclosure efforts must be promoted.
- Companies are encouraged to make efforts to disclose sufficient information to shareholders, not after AGM, but before it, which is the highest body of the company in the first place.
