This indicates whether the companies will do more than work together, such as holding each other’s shares or seconding personnel (capital and business alliance).
The costs of this agreement are expected to be recorded from the next fiscal year onward, when the launch is carried out, and therefore will have no impact on the full-year consolidated earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2027.
