Nidec Audit Delay Risk Extends Pressure on Listing and Governance

Tokyo, 28 October 2026 – Nidec Corporation may not obtain an auditor’s opinion on its annual securities report by the end of October, according to a report published Wednesday. The Japanese motor maker’s exchange listing is already under review: the Tokyo Stock Exchange placed it on special alert in October 2025 and gave it a year to improve internal controls or risk delisting. Nidec said it could not comment on the latest report because it was not based on a company announcement.

The possible delay matters to investors because the audit opinion and the exchange’s review are separate but connected tests of disclosure quality and governance.

The latest report describes a possible further delay, not a new company-confirmed audit outcome or a delisting decision.
