shares of common stock as restricted stock compensation (with a total issuance amount capped at 500 million yen). The issuance price will be based on the closing price of the Tokyo Stock Exchange on the business day prior to the Board meeting scheduled for March 2026. The planned recipients are directors and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. The restriction period is divided into three plans, with periods of 3 years, 4 years, and 5 years respectively.\n\n### Purpose and Details of Allocation Agreement\nThis new share issuance aims to encourage employees and subsidiary officers to share the benefits and risks of stock price fluctuations with shareholders, thereby enhancing their motivation to contribute to corporate value improvement. If an allocated person loses their position due to resignation or otherwise, the restricted shares for which the transfer restrictions have not been lifted will generally be acquired by the Company free of charge. The shares will be managed in a designated securities company account, and in cases of corporate reorganizations, the transfer restrictions may be reasonably lifted.","jir_financial_highlights":"Number of Shares Issued: 150,150 shares (Unknown)\nTotal Issuance Amount: Up to 500 million yen (Unknown)\nRestriction Period: 3 types (3 years, 4 years, 5 years) (Unknown)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#MoneyForwardInc, #RestrictedStockCompensation, #StockOption, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Number of Shares Issued: 150,150 shares (common stock)\nTotal Issuance Amount Cap: 500 million yen\nRestriction Period: 3 plans of 3 years, 4 years, and 5 years","jir_meta_title":"Money Forward, Inc.
