Meiho Holdings,Inc.

As a holding company, our Group has established a “business support platform” to support the growth of locally rooted small and medium-sized enterprises. Through this platform, we support subsidiaries in initiatives to improve performance, including sharing the Group’s common principles and values, business management, cash-flow management, enhancement of sales and technical capabilities, recruitment and development of human resources, and adaptation to digital transformation. In addition, we are expanding our Group network through “employee succession-type M&A,” and had 24 consolidated subsidiaries as of the end of June 2026. According to the 2026 edition of the Small and Medium Enterprise White Paper published by the Small and Medium Enterprise Agency in April 2026, the proportion of small and medium-sized enterprises without a successor has been declining, but companies whose managers are aged 60 or older still account for more than half of the total. Accordingly, a considerable number of companies will require business succession over the medium to long term. Our Group aims to expand a group network that jointly creates companies delivering both revenue and profit growth by entering into capital partnerships with companies facing these business succession challenges and concerned about their future, as well as with companies that have strong growth ambitions, and providing management support through our “business support platform.” The Company is a specified listed company, etc. as prescribed in Article 49, Paragraph 2 of the Cabinet Office Ordinance on Regulation of Transactions in Securities. Accordingly, the materiality thresholds for material facts under the insider trading regulations are assessed based on consolidated figures.
