Annual Report on Form 20-F regulatory
"filed its Annual Report on Form 20-F, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026"
An annual report on Form 20-F is a standardized filing that foreign companies submit to the U.S. securities regulator to disclose their financial results, business operations, risks, and management’s discussion of performance. It matters to investors because it provides a complete, audited snapshot—like a company’s financial report card and shareholder letter combined—used to assess transparency, compare companies, and judge whether the stock’s price matches underlying business strengths and risks.
American Depositary Receipts financial
"Shareholders of Nomura Holdings, Inc., including holders of its American Depositary Receipts, can request a free printed copy"
A certificate traded on U.S. markets that represents ownership of shares in a foreign company, letting U.S. investors buy and sell that company as if it were listed domestically. Think of it as a local voucher for a foreign product: it makes price quotes in dollars, trades on familiar exchanges, and brings differences in liquidity, fees and legal protections that can affect returns and risk compared with buying the underlying foreign shares directly.
Audit Committee financial
"Shoji Ogawa Reappointment Member of the Audit Committee (full-time) and Board Risk Committee"
A company's audit committee is a small group of board members who act like independent inspectors for the firm's finances, overseeing how financial reports are prepared, monitoring internal controls, and managing the relationship with external auditors. Investors care because a strong audit committee reduces the risk of accounting errors, fraud, or misleading statements, making financial statements more trustworthy and helping protect shareholder value.
Board Risk Committee financial
"Outside Director Reappointment Chairperson of the Board Risk Committee"
Nomination Committee financial
"Outside Director Reappointment Member of the Nomination Committee and Compensation Committee"
A nomination committee is a small group of board members that screens, selects and recommends people to serve on a company’s board of directors and oversees succession planning for top executives. Think of it as a hiring panel for the board that checks skills, independence and fit so the leadership mix supports the company’s goals. Investors care because the committee shapes who sets strategy, manages risk and protects shareholder interests.
Compensation Committee financial
"Outside Director Reappointment Member of the Nomination Committee, Compensation Committee and Board Risk Committee"
A compensation committee is a group within a company's leadership responsible for setting and reviewing how much top executives and employees are paid, including salaries, bonuses, and benefits. It matters to investors because fair and effective pay decisions can influence a company's performance, leadership motivation, and overall governance, helping ensure that the company’s management is aligned with shareholders’ interests.
