Raising Funds Through a Public Offering and Third-Party Allotment of Treasury Shares

「当連結会計年度におきましては、平成28年10月３日付で株式会社サンマークの全株式を取得した対価の支払いにより一時的に減少した運転資金への充当等を目的として、平成28年11月18日開催の取締役会決議に基づき、一般募集および第三者割当（オーバーアロットメントによる当社株式の売出に関連する第三者割当）による自己株式の処分により、資金調達を実施しております。」

「During the cumulative third quarter under review, we raised funds through the disposition of treasury shares by public offering and third-party allotment, including a third-party allotment related to the secondary offering of our shares through an over-allotment option, based on a resolution of the Board of Directors dated 18 November 2016. The funds were intended in part to replenish working capital temporarily reduced by the payment of consideration for acquiring all shares of 株式会社サンマーク on 3 October 2016. We disposed of 870,000 shares through the public offering with a payment date of 9 December 2016 and 114,100 shares through the third-party allotment related to the 130,000-share over-allotment offering with a payment date of 27 December 2016, for a total of 984,100 shares.」
