Eligibility will be determined based on continuous holding years and continuous held share counts. Previously, determination was based solely on shareholdings as of November 30; going forward, both May 31 and November 30 of each year will be used as reference dates. Continuous holding years will be counted by the number of times recorded under the same shareholder number: three or more times will be judged as \"1 year or more,\" and seven or more times as \"3 years or more.\" Continuous held share counts will check categories of 500 shares, 1,000 shares, and 3,000 shares or more on both reference dates. The changed method will be applied starting with the shareholder benefits based on the November 30, 2027 record date.\n\n### Impact on Shareholders and Implementation Schedule\nThe new determination method does not change the contents of the benefits themselves; it only changes how eligibility categories are determined. Determinations under the new criteria will begin on November 30, 2026, and the first application will be for the shareholder benefits with the November 30, 2027 record date. If shareholdings differ between May 31 and November 30, the lower number will be used as the basis. Holders with less than 500 shares may be excluded, but if they subsequently hold 500 shares or more again, they will become eligible once more.","jir_financial_highlights":"Unknown: Unknown (Unknown)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#AstenaHoldings, #ShareholderBenefitChange","jir_key_figures":"Determination criteria for continuous holding years: 3 or more times = 1 year or more, 7 or more times = 3 years or more\nThresholds for benefit categories by share count: 500 shares or more, 1,000 shares or more, 3,000 shares or more\nStart of application: Shareholder benefits based on the November 30, 2027 record date","jir_meta_title":"Astena Holdings Co., Ltd.
