- The Company holds 21,885,522 shares of treasury stock and is excluded from the above list of major shareholders.
- The shareholding ratio is calculated exclusive of treasury shares.
- Nipsea International Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary company of Wuthelam Holdings Limited, of which Goh Hup Jin, Director of the Company, serves as Managing Director.
- Fraser (HK) Limited is a subsidiary company of a company (W (BVI) Holdings Limited) whose majority voting rights are held by Goh Hup Jin, Director of the Company, on his own account, and falls under affiliated parties of the Company.
- Since the Company was able to confirm the intention of the financial institutions to sell the shares of the Company’s common stock held by them, the Company resolved at the Board of Directors meeting held on January 7, 2022 to conduct a secondary offering of shares in overseas markets, in order to provide such sellers with a smooth opportunity to sell their shares and to resolve the issue of the low market liquidity of the Company’s stock relative to its market capitalization. In accordance with the resolution, the Company implemented the offering as shown on the next page. This secondary offering of shares in overseas markets was conducted with the goal of improving the liquidity of the Company’s stock, building a global base of investors that show an understanding of the Company’s growth strategies from a long-term perspective, and alleviating concerns surrounding the potential sale of the Company’s common stock held as strategic holdings. This secondary offering will also contribute to the improvement of the tradable share ratio required to maintain listing on the “Prime Market,” a new market segment of the Tokyo Stock Exchange.
