Impact on Shareholders and Future Outlook

This disclosure provides a point-in-time view of the status of treasury stock acquisitions and suggests continuity of share buybacks as a measure to prevent dilution. The cumulative acquisition amount is approximately 663 million yen, which is a relatively low level compared to the total cap of 1.5 billion yen, but the acquisition period is set through March 31, 2027, so further acquisitions are expected.
