We wish to express our sincere gratitude to our shareholders for their continued support. To reward shareholders who hold our shares over the medium to long term and to enhance shareholder value over the long term, we have introduced a “Multi-Tier Shared Shareholder Benefit Program,” under which benefits can be received across multiple tiers depending on the number of shares held.
Eligible Shareholders
In principle, shareholders who hold 200 or more shares of our common stock and are continuously listed or recorded in the shareholder register under the same shareholder number from May 31 of the previous year through May 31 of the current year (the record date) are eligible.
Details of Shareholder Benefits
This is a shared benefit program where a fixed total pool of funds is allocated on a pro-rata basis according to the number of eligible shareholders.
| Tier |
Eligible Shareholding |
Benefit Pool Fund |
Eligibility Conditions |
| Tier 1 |
200 shares or more |
JPY 20 million (Pro-rata allocation based on eligible shareholders) |
Continuously listed or recorded in the shareholder register under the same shareholder number from May 31 of the previous year to May 31 of the current year (record date). |
| Tier 2 |
300 shares or more |
JPY 10 million (Pro-rata allocation based on eligible shareholders) |
Note 1: Shareholders who meet the criteria will receive the pro-rata allocated amount from all applicable tiers (e.g., shareholders holding 300 shares or more will receive benefits from both Tier 1 and Tier 2).
Note 2: Under this system, the individual benefit amount per shareholder varies depending on the total number of eligible shareholders. If the total number of eligible shareholders increases, the payout per shareholder decreases; if the number decreases, the payout per shareholder increases.
Note 3: Digital gifts are planned to offer shareholders choices such as Amazon Gift Cards, PayPay Money Lite, d Points, and Rakuten Point Gifts. (Digital gifts may be restricted to residents of Japan due to service provider rules.)
