Notice of Voluntary Adoption of IFRS

At the meeting of the Board of Directors held today, we have decided to voluntarily apply IFRS instead of the conventional Japanese standard based on the consolidated financial statements in the securities report for the year ended June 31, 2022.

1. Reasons for IFRS transition

We have decided to voluntarily apply IFRS with the aim of strengthening business administration and governance by improving the international comparability of financial information in the capital markets, and improving the convenience of various stakeholders, including domestic and overseas investors.

  • Due to the introduction of IFRS, 15 months' worth of business results in the U.K. was recorded under Japanese GAAP in order to eliminate the difference in the fiscal year-end of the U.K. business.
  • The difference between Japanese GAAP and IFRS income is mainly due to amortization of goodwill.
