All acquired treasury shares are scheduled to be canceled by board resolution.

Impact on Shareholders and Outlook

The current treasury stock acquisition corresponds to approximately 3.09% of the total number of issued shares (excluding treasury stock) and aims to enhance shareholder value. The number of shares acquired and the acquisition price may fluctuate depending on future market conditions, but the company intends to continue acquiring treasury stock through market purchases. Since all acquired treasury shares will be canceled, this is expected to suppress dilution and improve per-share indicators.
