KPI and Objectives

Long-term Objectives, KPI and Risks

”Value Creation Initiative”

At Eisai, we have identified 15 material topics according to our materiality identification process. Among them, five topics with particularly significant impact on both social and financial value were designated as priority material topics through which we can enhance our intrinsic corporate value by accelerating related initiatives. Accordingly, we have identified long-term objectives and KPIs, and identified key risks for these priority material topics. Furthermore, every year we analyze our material topics in light of changes in the business environment and social issues. We review progress against action plans, and revise our material topics and KPIs as necessary.

The material topics and long-term goals, KPIs, and risks were finalized after deliberation and approval by the GOC*1 and confirmation by the Board of Directors. Each year, we review the progress of these activities and ensure their promotion through the PDCA cycle.
