[Software and Service] Share Buyback Completed | Improving Capital Efficiency and Supporting Shareholders – July 2026

Overview of Capital Policy

Software and Service Co., Ltd. conducted a purchase of 400,000 shares (approximately 1.076 billion yen) on July 27, 2026, aimed at improving capital efficiency and supporting shareholders. The acquisition was executed through the Tokyo Stock Exchange’s Off-auction Market for Treasury Stock (ToSTNeT-3), and was completed upon its conclusion. This buyback was in response to the intent of shareholder Mr. Katsumi Miyazaki to sell his holdings, and seeks to stabilize stock demand and improve capital efficiency.

Impact on Shareholders and Future Outlook

The share buyback increased the ratio of treasury shares to issued shares to 8.09%, which is expected to enhance shareholder value. Going forward, the company will continue to implement capital policies that include shareholder returns and optimizing capital efficiency. While the current buyback contributes to short-term stability in stock supply and demand, the long-term goal is to improve shareholder value and maximize corporate valuation.
