of Issuance of Restricted Stock Compensation\nBased on the Board of Directors resolution dated March 16, 2026, Money Forward, Inc. decided to issue 130,710 shares of common stock as restricted stock compensation. The issue price is 3,216 yen per share, totaling 420,363,360 yen, with payment scheduled for April 10, 2026. The allocation recipients consist of 148 employees of the Company, 7 directors of subsidiaries, and 57 subsidiary employees, totaling 212 persons. The shares are allocated across three types of transfer restriction periods (until 2029, 2030, and 2031), intending to share stock price fluctuation risks and benefits with shareholders and to enhance motivation for contributing to increased corporate value.\n\n### Conditions and Management of Restricted Stock Compensation\nDuring the transfer restriction period, the allocated shares cannot be transferred or disposed of to third parties, and the transfer restrictions will be lifted for allocation recipients who meet the conditions upon expiration of the period. If a recipient loses their position as a director or employee of the Group before the period ends, the Company, in principle, will acquire the shares without compensation. The shares are managed by SMBC Nikko Securities Inc., and in the case of corporate restructuring, reasonable lifting of the transfer restrictions is stipulated. The issue price is based on the closing price on the day before the Board resolution and is not a price advantageous to the allocation recipients.","jir_financial_highlights":"Number of Shares Issued: 130,710 shares (Unknown)\nIssue Price: 3,216 yen per share (Unknown)\nTotal Issue Price: 420,363,360 yen (Unknown)\nNumber of Allocation Recipients: 212 persons (148 employees of the Company, 7 subsidiary directors, 57 subsidiary employees) (Unknown)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#MoneyForwardInc, #RestrictedStockCompensation, #StockOptions","jir_key_figures":"Number of Shares Issued: 130,710 shares\nIssue Price: 3,216 yen per share\nTotal Issue Price: 420,363,360 yen","jir_meta_title":"Money Forward, Inc.
