Notice Regarding Treasury Stock Acquisition

Overview of Treasury Stock Acquisition

The Company acquired 34,400 shares by market purchase during the period from September 1, 2026 to September 30, 2026 pursuant to the provision of Article 165, Paragraph 2 of the Companies Act and the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation. The total amount was 61,595,000 yen. This acquisition was conducted separately from the previously approved maximum allocation. As the acquisition was executed through the listed market, it is positioned as part of measures to mitigate dilution and as a component of the Company's capital policy going forward.

Background and Future Impact

At the Board of Directors meeting held on May 14, 2026, the upper limit for the total number of shares to be acquired was set at 600,000 shares (4.99% of the total number of issued shares), and the upper limit for the total acquisition amount was set at 1,000,000,000 yen. As of September 30, 2026, the cumulative acquisition amounted to 251,200 shares and a total of 449,138,200 yen. With the additional acquisition of 34,400 shares this time, the total number and total amount acquired may be trending closer to the approved limits; therefore, future developments will be closely watched from the perspectives of dilution control and shareholder return policy.
