SoftBank released the announcement right before its annual earnings conference on Monday, where the multinational conglomerate company’s CEO, Masayoshi Son, tried to convince investors the company would overcome its worst yearly loss of 1.8 trillion yen ($16.7 billion).

SoftBank also inaugurated three new directors: CFO Yoshimitsu Goto, Cadence CEO Lip-Bu Tan, and professor Yoko Kawamoto of Waseda Business School.
