Background
He joined Olivetti Japan in April 1966 and stayed 25 years, until April 1991. He joined Nihon M&A Center as a Director at its founding in April 1991 and became Representative Director and President the following June. Even in the fiscal year ended March 2011, after stepping down as President, he was the largest shareholder, holding 17.81% of issued shares as an individual.
Selection
He was a Director at the founding in April 1991 and became Representative Director and President one year and two months later, in June 1992. He was the first President, with no predecessor, and held the post for 16 years until stepping back to Representative Director and Chairman in June 2008. How he came to be President after the founding cannot be traced in the annual securities reports. He was succeeded by Suguru Miyake, who joined in September 1991.
Initiatives
The measures of his 16 years cannot be traced in the annual securities reports; only the change in scale in his final years remains. Consolidated net sales grew from ¥1.4 billion in the fiscal year ended March 2005 to ¥3.4 billion in his final year, FY ended March 2008. Ordinary profit rose from ¥0.4 billion to ¥1.5 billion over the same period. In FY ended March 2009, just after he stepped down, net sales were ¥4.0 billion and ordinary profit ¥1.7 billion, so the run of higher sales and profits continued.
