Notice Regarding Submission of Amendment Reports for Past Years’ Securities Reports and Corrections to Past Years’ Financial Summaries

Overview of Corrections

BML, Inc. discovered errors in the accounting treatment related to retirement benefits. In consultation with the audit firm, corrections were made to past securities reports and financial summaries. The errors stemmed from the offsetting treatment of assets and liabilities between funded and unfunded retirement benefit plans, where liabilities were incorrectly recorded on a net basis. The amounts have been properly reclassified into separate assets and liabilities. The corrections cover securities reports for the past five years and semiannual reports, quarterly reports, and financial summaries for the past three years. There is no impact on the income statement.

Impact of Corrections and Future Actions

As a result of the corrections, total assets and liabilities increased while the equity ratio declined by up to 2.3%, with no effect on income statement figures. Going forward, we will enhance the accuracy of accounting for retirement benefits and strive to prevent recurrence. We have submitted amendment reports to the Kanto Finance Bureau and will continue proper information disclosure. We deeply apologize for any inconvenience caused to our investors.
