Notice on the Implementation of Shareholder Benefits for the Fiscal Year Ending March 2027 and Changes (Expansion) to the Shareholder Benefit Program

Overview

At today's Board of Directors meeting, the implementation of shareholder benefits for the fiscal year ending March 2027 and the expansion of the benefit program were decided. As a milestone marking the company's 80th anniversary, this expresses gratitude to shareholders and aims to promote long-term ownership. Benefit points will be awarded based on the number of shares held and the holding period as of the benefit eligibility date. Shareholders can select from products, discounts, donations to social contribution activities, and other options from the benefits catalog.

Details of changes and impact

The calculation method for benefit points has been changed to reflect the number of shares held and the holding period. Specifically, three tiers—less than 3 years, 3 years to less than 6 years, and 6 years or more—are established, with the higher tier offering points that exceed the previous scheme. This enhances the value of benefits for long-term holders and shareholders with larger shareholdings. Going forward, under the company ethos of 'The思想 of Fortune' (note: translated phrasing), the company will continue to strive for social contribution and increased corporate value.
