- How does Kenkou Holding view M&A?
- We owe the stable success and sustained growth our Group has achieved to date to our aggressive M&A strategy. We will therefore remain proactive in M&A as a means to acquire new core enterprises and develop new core businesses.
Stock Information
- What is your policy on dividends?
