To promptly and accurately ascertain the facts, an investigation was conducted with the support of an independent external law firm. As the scope of the investigation expanded, a Special Investigation Committee chaired by an outside director was established to confirm the presence or absence of similar incidents, calculate the impact amount, investigate causes, and propose recurrence prevention measures.\n\n### Postponement of Earnings Announcement and Future Actions\nThe earnings announcement for the fiscal year ending March 2026 will be postponed as the investigation by the Special Investigation Committee and the audit process require additional time, with the disclosure expected to exceed 50 days after the fiscal year-end. The results of the investigation will be promptly disclosed once confirmed. At this time, no falsifications have been found in the consolidated financial results, and the impact on performance is considered minor; however, the details of disclosure may change depending on the progress of the investigation.","jir_financial_highlights":"Scheduled Earnings Report Date for Fiscal Year Ending March 2026: Postponed (expected to exceed 50 days after the fiscal year-end) (Reason for postponement: investigation by the Special Investigation Committee and audit process require additional time)\nImpact on Financial Performance: Recognized as minor (If any matters requiring disclosure are identified as a result of the investigation, they will be promptly disclosed)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#Sanrio, #SpecialInvestigationCommittee, #EarningsDelay, #IR","jir_key_figures":"Date of Establishment of Special Investigation Committee: May 1, 2026 (Board resolution date)\nPostponement of Earnings Announcement: Expected to exceed 50 days after fiscal year-end (Reason for postponement: investigation and audit process)\nImpact on Earnings: Recognized as minor at this time","jir_meta_title":"Sanrio: Establishment of Special Investigation Committee and Delay of Earnings Announcement for Fiscal Year Ending March 2026 | May 2026","jir_meta_description":"Sanrio Company, Ltd. has established an independent special investigation committee in response to allegations of improper remuneration received by an executive officer.
