<upd_detl>The Japanese bureaucracy often uses romanization when explaining things (godo kaisha is another), but that doesn't mean the romanized terms are used enough in English to warrant their inclusion as translations.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>I think these glosses are a better fit. Apparently "joint-stock company" isn't strictly correct. Also, 株式会社 aren't necessarily public. The Japanese equivalent of a "limited liability company" is a 合同会社.
I think "kabushiki kaisha" should be kept (if only to explain the "KK" gloss). There are a few Japanese companies that use it in their official English names.</upd_detl>
