Regarding the Record Date Setting for the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders

Itochu Foods Corporation has set the record date as April 16, 2026, to determine shareholders eligible to exercise voting rights in preparation for the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders scheduled to be held in early June 2026. The public notice is planned to be made by electronic notice on April 1, 2026.

Post-Tender Offer Response and Scheduled Shareholders' Meeting

If the tender offer for the Company's shares by FMDI, a subsidiary of the parent company Itochu Corporation, is successful and the tender offeror's voting rights ownership ratio is 90% or more, the Company plans to conduct a share transfer request in accordance with the Companies Act to set the tender offeror as the sole shareholder. If the ownership ratio is less than 90%, the Company plans to hold an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders to propose share consolidation and amendments to the Articles of Incorporation. If the tender offer is not successful or if all shares are acquired, the Company does not plan to hold the extraordinary general meeting.
