Teijin established its purpose in April 2024: "Pioneering solutions together for a healthy planet." This purpose aims to provide solutions that protect the global environment and human health. Teijin takes pride in inheriting its pioneering spirit built over 100 years of history and contributing to solving social challenges through innovation.

Teijin's medium-term management plan "2024-2025" focuses on three priority areas: improving profitability, transforming the business portfolio, and strengthening the global management foundation. To improve profitability, the company will recover baseline earnings power through increased labor productivity, price adjustments, and fixed cost reduction. Establishing stable supply systems and reducing costs in the aramid and healthcare businesses are particularly important.

In business portfolio transformation, Teijin will divest unprofitable operations and streamline non-core businesses while pursuing growth in three key industrial sectors: mobility, infrastructure & industrial, and healthcare. The company is specifically advancing a shift from providing individual materials and products to delivering customer-centric value solutions.

Strengthening the global management foundation involves optimizing governance structures, advancing production technology, and enhancing human capital. Specifically, the company aims to achieve faster decision-making and optimal resource allocation through transitioning to an audit committee structure and implementing a global job posting system.

In fiscal 2025, Teijin will formulate its next medium-term management plan and pursue growth strategies to expand baseline earnings power and solve customer challenges. Teijin targets sustained growth and long-term corporate value enhancement, aiming to achieve ROE of 10% or higher and PBR of 1.0x or higher.
