Disclosure Policy

The Company is committed to the timely disclosure of information to shareholders and investors based on the principles of transparency, fairness, and continuity. In addition to complying with laws and the "Timely Disclosure Rules" set by the Tokyo Stock Exchange, we strive to proactively disclose useful information to deepen understanding of our management policies and business activities.

We will implement information disclosure in accordance with laws and regulations, such as the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act, as well as the rules of financial instruments exchanges, and will disclose material information that may affect investment decisions in a timely and appropriate manner. In addition, we will proactively disclose information that is useful for our stakeholders to deepen their understanding of the Company.

In addition to disclosing information subject to timely disclosure via TDnet (Timely Disclosure network) provided by the Tokyo Stock Exchange, we strive to disclose information through appropriate methods depending on the nature of the information, such as EDINET (Electronic Disclosure for Investors' NETwork, an electronic disclosure system for securities reports, etc., based on the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act) managed by the Financial Services Agency, our corporate website, press releases, and integrated reports. We will comply with the "Fair Disclosure Rule" based on the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act and strive to ensure fairness in information disclosure.

Among the information posted on this site, items other than past historical facts are forward-looking statements based on the judgment of the Company's management using currently available information, and involve risks and uncertainties. Please be aware that actual results may differ significantly from these forecasts due to various factors, such as economic conditions and market trends.

The Company, as a matter of principle, refrains from commenting on market rumors or evaluations and forecasts regarding the Company made by third parties. However, should the Company determine that leaving such rumors unaddressed could have a material impact on the Company, it will respond appropriately.

To prevent the leakage of financial information and ensure fairness, the period from the day following the end of each quarterly fiscal period until the announcement of financial results is designated as a "Quiet Period". During this period, we will refrain from answering questions or making comments regarding the details of the financial results. However, if a significant revision to the earnings forecast occurs during this period, information will be disclosed in accordance with the Timely Disclosure Rules. Even during the silent period, we will respond to inquiries regarding information that has already been made public.

The Company strives to develop and enhance its internal systems based on this policy to continuously ensure appropriate information disclosure. We regularly conduct education for employees to raise compliance awareness and strive to prevent information leaks.

The Company has established internal regulations for the purpose of appropriately managing material corporate information, preventing insider trading, and ensuring fair information disclosure. Furthermore, we are promoting thorough awareness and fostering understanding among all Group employees.
