Notice Regarding Acquisition of Fixed Assets

Purpose and Overview of Fixed Asset Acquisition

Arisawa Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has resolved to construct a new factory in Gifu Prefecture to expand its business and increase production capacity in the electronic materials field, in response to growing demand for coating-related products, based on its medium-term management plan. The investment is approximately 10 billion yen (planned), including land, buildings, and machinery & equipment. The new factory is scheduled for completion in September 2028. This initiative also aims to strengthen the business continuity plan (BCP) by establishing a stable supply system to mitigate risks from natural disasters and other threats.

Future Outlook and Impact

As the new factory is scheduled for completion in September 2028, the impact on consolidated earnings for the current fiscal year is expected to be minimal. Funding will come from internal reserves and borrowings. Details of counterparties will be disclosed following formal agreements and are not related parties. Should any disclosure requirements arise in the future, they will be promptly announced.
