Mizuho Financial Group, Inc. reports that its Board of Directors has decided to oppose a shareholder proposal related to Orient Corporation. The proposal would amend the Articles of Incorporation to require annual estimates and disclosure of key Basel regulatory metrics if Orient Corporation became a consolidated subsidiary.
The board argues that disclosing estimates based on such assumptions could mislead investors into thinking a consolidation decision has been made, and could confuse speculative figures with audited financials and officially calculated capital ratios. It also states that detailed estimation and disclosure requirements for a specific equity-method investee are inappropriate for inclusion in the Articles of Incorporation.
