Progress under the Plan for Compliance with Listing Maintenance Criteria (Entry into Improvement Period) and Change to the Plan Period

Because the market capitalization of tradable shares and the tradable share ratio did not meet the continued listing criteria, the plan period for achieving compliance was extended by 1 year, from the end of February 2026 to the end of February 2027. The Company has also entered the improvement period and will continue its efforts to maintain its listing on the Prime Market.
