In April 2024, we announced our Medium- to Long-Term Plan & Aspiration for 2030. This vision directly addresses two major challenges facing modern society: the establishment of a circular economy and the achievement of carbon neutrality. We will proactively address each strategic theme and contribute to solving social issues through business development.
For more detail, please refer to the Medium- to Long-Term Plan & Aspiration presentation materials.
Our Medium- to Long-Term Vision & Aspiration
To be a leader in creating a circular economy that connects society to the environment

Strategic Issues
- Strengthen the business foundation to enhance profitability
- Explore new areas in the precious metals business
- Further promote globalization
- Develop human resources to support business growth
- Optimize the balance sheet
Performance Targets for FY2030
Promoting resource circulation and decarbonization-oriented waste management with consideration for the global environment is our key mission. To fulfill these objectives, we actively engage with our current strategic themes and aim for sustainable growth to achieve our ambitious performance targets for fiscal year 2030. Through this medium- to long-term vision, we will balance enhancing corporate value with fulfilling our social responsibilities, contributing to the creation of a sustainable future.
