「26 June 2026 (Note) This resulted from the issuance of new shares under the restricted stock-based compensation plan. … Change in total number of issued shares　73,500」

「We hereby notify you that the payment procedures for the issuance of new shares as restricted stock compensation were completed today, as described below.」

「Directors' compensation consists of fixed compensation (cash compensation) and restricted stock as non-cash compensation, from the perspective of putting the Company's corporate philosophy into practice and achieving sustainable growth of the Group and increased corporate value over the medium to long term. In light of recent discussions on corporate governance, the Group will also consider introducing performance-linked compensation and other forms of compensation as a future agenda item, from the perspective of providing appropriate incentives to improve performance.」

「At present, we provide fixed compensation only because we are in the stage of establishing the foundation for stable management and sustainable growth while building our business portfolio. However, in light of recent discussions on corporate governance, we will consider introducing performance-linked compensation and other arrangements as a future matter, from the perspective of providing incentives to improve performance.」
