By fiscal 2019, Teijin aims to reduce total costs by JPY 20 billion from the fiscal 2016 level. This will be realised by completing measures in the revised medium-term management plan in 2014 and strengthening product cost competitiveness centred on growth businesses (JPY 11 billion), and restructuring into a small head office commensurate with business scale after the implementation of restructuring initiatives (JPY 9 billion).
New key performance indicators (KPI) will be established with an emphasis on both investment efficiency and earnings power. Other KPI including non-financial information will be established, such as net sales from transformation strategy projects and degree of diversity promotion, to visualise and measure business portfolio transformation.
