Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2025
-
Basis of Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Asanuma Corporation (the "Company") and its consolidated subsidiaries (the "Group") are prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in Japan, which are different in certain respects as to the application and disclosure requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards, and have been compiled from the consolidated financial statements prepared by the Company as required by the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act of Japan.
In preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements, certain reclassifications and rearrangements have been made to the consolidated financial statements issued domestically in order to present them in a format which is more familiar to readers outside Japan.
Certain reclassifications of previously reported amounts have been made to conform the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025 to the 2025 presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on consolidated net assets.
-
U.S. Dollar Amounts
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are stated in yen, the currency of the country in which the company is incorporated and operate. The translation of yen amounts into U.S. dollar amounts is included solely for the convenience of readers outside Japan and has been made at ¥149.52 = U.S.$1.00, the exchange rate prevailing on March 31, 2025. This translation should not be construed as a representation that yen can be converted into
U.S. dollars at the above or any other rate.
- Principles of Consolidation
At March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had 9 subsidiaries and 2 affiliates. The consolidated financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 include the accounts of the Company and its 6 subsidiaries for both years.
The Company applied the equity method to its investments in 1 affiliate at March 31, 2025 and 2024 for the purpose of consolidated financial statements for the years then ended.
The accounts of the remaining subsidiaries and affiliate were not consolidated nor the equity method applied because its total assets, net sales, profit or loss and retained earnings were not material to the consolidated financial statements.
-
Principles of Consolidation (continued)
The balance sheet date of SINGAPORE PAINTS & CONTRACTOR PTE. LTD. and EVERGREEN ENGINEERING & CONSTRUCTION PTE. LTD. is December 31.
Necessary adjustments were made to the subsidiary's balance sheet to reflect any significant intercompany transactions during the period from January 1 through March 31.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, deposits with banks withdrawable on demand, and short-term investments which are readily convertible to cash subject to an insignificant risk of any changes in their value and which were purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.
Investments in securities
Investments in securities are classified into two categories: held-to-maturity debt securities or other securities. Held-to-maturity debt securities are stated at amortized cost. Quoted securities classified as other securities, the Company uses the market-value method based on the market price, etc. at the consolidated closing date. Valuation differences are included directly in net assets and costs of securities sold are determined by the moving-average method. Unquoted securities classified as other securities are carried at cost determined by the moving average method.
Allowance for doubtful accounts
The Group provide an allowance for doubtful accounts at an amount calculated based on their historical experience of bad debts on ordinary receivables plus an additional estimate of probable specific bad debts from customers experiencing financial difficulties.
Inventories
Cost of uncompleted construction contracts are stated at cost determined on an individual project basis. Real estate held for sale is stated at the lower of cost or net selling value, cost being determined on an individual project basis. Raw materials and supplies are stated at the lower of cost or net selling value, cost being determined by the period average method.
4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)Property and equipment (Other than leased assets)
Property and equipment is stated on the basis of cost. Depreciation is calculated by the declining-balance method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets; however, the straight-line method is applied to buildings (except for facilities attached to the buildings) acquired on or after April 1, 1998 and facilities attached to buildings and other non-building structures acquired on or after April 1, 2016.
Intangible assets (Other than leased assets)
Amortization of intangible assets is calculated by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.
Expenditures related to computer software developed for internal use are charged to income when incurred, except if they are deemed to contribute to the generation of income or to future cost savings. Such expenditures are capitalized as intangible assets and amortized over an estimated useful life of 5 years.
Leases
Leased assets held under finance leases that transfer ownership are depreciated by the same methods used for owned fixed assets. For finance leases that do not transfer ownership, depreciation expense is calculated based on the straight-line method over the leased period of the lease with a residual value of zero.
Bonds issuance expenses
Issuance expenses of bonds are charged to income as incurred.
Provision for compensation for completed construction
A provision for compensation for completed construction is provided for anticipated future costs arising from compensations on completed construction based on the historical data on the compensation cost.
Provision for loss on construction contracts
A provision for loss on construction contracts is provided for uncompleted construction projects when a future loss is expected, and a reasonable estimate of the amount can be made at the end of the current fiscal year.
4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)Retirement benefits
The retirement benefit obligation for employees is attributed to each period by the benefit formula method.
Actuarial gain or loss is amortized commencing in the year following the year in which the gain or loss is recognized by the straight-line method over a period of principally 10 years, which is within the average remaining years of service of the eligible employees.
Prior service cost is charged to income when incurred.
Income taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities have been recognized in the consolidated financial statements with respect to the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of the assets and liabilities, and the amounts were measured using the enacted tax rates and laws which will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.
Goodwill
Goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated period of benefit. The goodwill resulting from the acquisition of SINGAPORE PAINTS & CONTRACTOR PTE. LTD. and EVERGREEN ENGINEERING & CONSTRUCTION PTE. LTD. is
being amortized over periods of 7 years and 8 years, respectively.
Significant revenue and expenses
Regarding the construction business in which the Group is mainly engaged, the Group has a performance obligation to complete construction and transfer objects based on a construction contract with a customer. In such a contract, when control of goods or services is transferred to customers over time, revenue is recognized as the Group satisfies the performance obligation over time. Progress toward satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured based on the percentage of construction cost incurred up to the end of the reporting period to the estimated total construction cost since the amount of construction cost incurred is considered to represent the degree of progress toward satisfaction of a performance obligation. If progress toward satisfaction of a performance obligation cannot be reasonably estimated, but the Group expects to recover all costs incurred, revenue is recognized on a cost recovery basis.
For construction contracts with a very short period of time between the commencement date of the transaction and the point in time when the Group expects the performance obligation to be fully satisfied, an alternative approach applies, whereby revenue is recognized at the point in time when a performance obligation is fully satisfied rather than over time.
- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Applicable accounting principles and procedures in cases where directly relevant accounting standards are not available
Accounting for constructions involving joint venture, the Company recognize their share of the jointly controlled assets, the jointly responsible liabilities, the income and expenses resulting from the joint venture.

Significant Accounting Estimates
Estimate of total construction costs when revenue is recognized as the Group satisfies its performance obligation over time
Amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements
Net sales of construction contracts accounted for as the Group satisfies its performance obligation over time amounted to ¥161,450 million ($1,079,789 thousand) and
¥147,269 million for the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Information on the components of identified significant accounting estimate
Calculation method
For construction contracts in which control of goods or service is transferred to customers over time, revenue is recognized as the Group satisfies the performance obligation over time. Progress toward satisfaction of the performance obligation is measured based on the percentage of construction cost incurred up to the end of the reporting period to the estimated total construction cost.
Significant assumptions
Significant assumptions used for estimation of total construction cost are such as unit price of building material and labor unit price, which are calculated based on each project condition such as scale, specification and construction period.
Effect on consolidated financial statements for the following fiscal year
Significant assumptions expect to have effect on net sales of construction contracts for each reporting period due to uncertainty in estimates. The amount of net sales of construction contracts in the consolidated financial statements for the following fiscal year may fluctuate when there are fluctuations in significant assumptions such as unit price of building material or labor unit price, which were used for estimating total construction cost and which are calculated based on each project condition such as scale, specifications and construction period.

Accounting Standards Issued but Not Yet Effective
The Accounting Standards Board of Japan ("ASBJ") issued the following accounting standard and implementation guidance:
Accounting Standard for Leases (ASBJ Statement No. 34, September 13, 2024) Implementation Guidance on Accounting Standard for Leases (ASBJ Guidance No. 33, September 13, 2024)
Overview
As part of the efforts taken by the ASBJ to align Japanese accounting standards with international standards, discussions have been held regarding the development of accounting standards for leases that require the recognition of assets and liabilities for all lessee leases, taking international accounting standards into consideration. The guiding principle is to base these standards on a single accounting model for lessees as outlined in IFRS 16; however, rather than adopting all the provisions of IFRS 16, the aim is to primarily incorporate the key provisions. This approach seeks to create a lease accounting standard that is simple, convenient, and, in principle, does not require modifications when applying the provisions of IFRS 16 to unconsolidated financial statements. For the accounting treatment of lessees concerning lease expense allocation, a single accounting model is applied for all leases, regardless of whether they are finance leases or operating leases, as outlined in IFRS 16. This model requires the recording of depreciation expense related to the right-of-use assets and interest expense related to the lease liability.
Scheduled date of adoption
The Company expects to adopt the accounting standard and related implementation guidance from the beginning of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2028.
Impact of adoption
The Company is currently evaluating the effect of the adoption of the Accounting Standard for Leases and related implementation guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes (continued)
Revision of deferred income taxes due to changes in tax rates
On March 31, 2025, the "Act for Partial Revision of the Income Tax Act, etc. (Act No. 13 of 2025)" was enacted by the National Diet of Japan. As a result, the "Special Defense Corporate Tax" will be imposed from the fiscal year beginning April 1, 2026. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities related to temporary differences expected to be reversed on or after April 1, 2026 have been recalculated using the revised statutory effective tax rate, which was changed from 30.4% to 31.4%. As a result of this tax rate change, deferred income taxes in investments and other assets (the amount of deferred tax assets after deducting deferred tax liabilities) increased by ¥2 million ($15 thousand), and income taxes - deferred in the consolidated statement of income decreased by ¥31 million ($213 thousand).

Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company estimates the cost of restoration obligations based on property lease agreements of the headquarters in Osaka, Tokyo office, Kyusyu office and Hokkaido office. As the cost of the restoration obligations is immaterial, the information on asset retirement obligations is omitted.
Regarding certain restoration obligations, the Company estimated non-recoverable amounts of deposits for those premises and charged the portion attributable to the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, instead of recording asset retirement obligations.
- Shareholders' Equity
The Companies Act (the "Act") provides that an amount equal to 10% of the amount to be disbursed as distributions of capital surplus (other than the capital reserve) and retained earnings (other than the legal reserve) be transferred to the capital reserve and the legal reserve, respectively, until the sum of the capital reserve and the legal reserve equals 25% of the capital stock account. Such distributions can be made at any time by resolution of the shareholders, or by the Board of Directors if certain conditions are met.
Under the Act, upon the issuance and sale of new shares of common stock, the entire amount of the proceeds is required to be accounted for as common stock, although a company may, by resolution of the Board of Directors, account for an amount not exceeding one-half of the proceeds of the sale of new shares as additional paid-in capital included in capital surplus.
Movements in shares of common stock in issue and treasury stock during the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 are summarized as follows:

Treasury stock 20,286 336,306 178,957 177,635
The increase in shares of common stock of 64,629,032 is due to the stock split that the company conducted at a ratio of five-for one effective August 1, 2024.
The increase in treasury stock of common stock of 336,306 shares is due to the acquisition of 60,000 shares of treasury stock by the resolution of the Board of Directors held on June 27, 2024, the increase of 276,132 shares due to the stock split, and the acquisition of 174 fractional shares of less than one unit.

Outline (continued)
The number of shares in the tables above represents the Company's splitting its common stock as follows:
・One share into two shares effective on August 1, 2022
・One share into five shares effective on August 1, 2024 Conditions for release of transfer restriction are as follows:
The Company shall release transfer restriction for all of the allocated shares upon the end of the vesting period provided that a covered person continues to be director of the Company during the "Service Period" (from the allocation date to the end of the ordinary general meeting of shareholders for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025). However, in the event that a covered person ceases to be a director during the Service Period due to death or other reasons that the Board of Directors deem as justifiable, the Company shall release transfer restrictions for the specified number of allocated shares at the end of the vesting period. The specified number of allocated shares is calculated by multiplying the number of months from the allocation date to the month when a covered person ceases to be a director divided by 12 (if the number exceeds 1, it shall be deemed to be 1) by the number of allocated shares (it shall be rounded down).
