Various Media Reports Concerning the Proposed Acquisition of Seven & i Holdings
February 10, 2025
Various media has reported on the proposed acquisition of Seven & i Holdings, including the possibility of our company's involvement. We also received a number of corresponding inquiries during the announcement of our financial results last week. It is true that we have received a request from the founding family to become a strategic partner. Nevertheless, no specific terms or conditions have been determined, and therefore, there is no matter to be submitted to the board of directors for resolution. If we make any decision on this matter, it will be made consistent with any other decisions we make on new projects, satisfying our internal investment criteria and in line with our internal governance.
The understanding and agreement of our shareholders are of utmost importance to us, and we assure you that there is no cause for concern.
