New major risk - Financial position The company's debt is not well covered by operating cash flow. Operating cash flow to total debt ratio: 9.7% This is considered a major risk. If the company's operating cash flows are too small relative to the size of their debt, it increases their balance sheet risk. The company has less cash from operations to cover its expenses from servicing large debt and it increases the risk of liquidity issues. It also extends the time it would take for the company to pay back the debt in full, meaning it may not be able to easily pay it all off in a distress scenario. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (9.7% operating cash flow to total debt). Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results. Market cap is less than US$100m (JP¥3.01b market cap, or US$20.9m). Announcement • May 15

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 53% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-JP¥705m free cash flow). Earnings have declined by 53% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risk Market cap is less than US$100m (JP¥2.91b market cap, or US$19.9m). Announcement • Jul 11
