Background of the Sale of Company Shares

The Company has recently implemented multiple capital and business alliances and third-party allotments of shares, working to create business synergies. Meanwhile, this has led to an increase in the holding ratio of specific shareholders, resulting in a relative decline in market liquidity.

Against this backdrop, we have been informed that this transaction was executed with the intention of increasing the market liquidity of our shares and improving the ratio of tradable shares, in anticipation of a future transition to the Prime Market.

Furthermore, regarding this sale, the start date was set for the business day following the financial results announcement to avoid any conflict with insider trading regulations. The sale price and the allocation of the number of shares sold on the execution date were entrusted to the securities company in advance, and no discretion from the Company or the individual was involved. Additionally, the Company has received notification from Mr. Kato that he will not sell any of our common shares for a period of two years from the execution date of this transaction.

Mr. Kato will continue to maintain his position as a major shareholder of the Company, and there is no change in his strong commitment to management. We will continue to work toward enhancing corporate value over the medium to long term.
