    Notes: (i) Ichiyoshi Securities Co., Ltd. (the "Company") declares dividends payable to shareholders of

    record as of September 30 (semiannual dividends) and March 31 (final dividends) of each fiscal year, but not to shareholders of record as of June 30 and December 31 of each fiscal year.

    1. The Company does not provide a dividend forecast. Hence, ****yen.

    2. The Company decided on the payment of commemorative dividend of 10yen per share for the 75th year anniversary of founding, payable to shareholders of record as of September 30, 2025 and shareholders of record as of March 31, 2026. Hence, 30yen is a sum of semiannual regular dividend of 20yen and a commemorative dividend of 10yen.

  3. Outlook for Business Result for Fiscal 2025 (from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2026) Since the forecast of earnings in financial-instruments trading, the main-line business of the

    Company and its group companies, is hard to make due to volatile factors in the market, the Company does not provide such forecast prior to the end of each quarter, half year and full year. Instead, the Company intends to release preliminary earnings figures after the end of each quarter, half year and full year as and when such figures become available.

  1. Outline of Business Result
    1. Outline of Business Result for the First Half of Fiscal 2025

      During the first half of fiscal 2025, the Japanese economy continued to be on a mild recovery track despite some effects from U.S trade policies. Thanks to improvement on employment and income situation, personal consumption revived despite the remaining high level of prices. Corporate production activities registered some weakness in certain sectors while equipment investments, mainly on digital transformation, recorded a firm trend. In the meantime, the global economy maintained its solid growth pattern amid slowing inflation while there remained some concern over uncertain financial policies of major economies.

      The Japanese stock market recorded a significant rise during the period. The Nikkei Stock Average (the Nikkei Average) on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (the TSE) once fell to 31,136yen on April 7 due to the shock from U.S. trade policies. After Japan and U.S. agreed on trade policies in the latter half of July, however, the Nikkei Average came to stay at the 40,000yen level, and approached the 44,000yen level temporarily in mid-August. In the U.S., as expectations for the resumption of interest rate cuts mounted amid declining inflationary pressure and optimistic views on the growth of generative AI rose again, the U.S. stock market regained its upward momentum. In Japan, positive buying mood spread to stocks related to semiconductors and AI technologies while expectations rose for change toward expansionary fiscal policy arising from the change of the government leadership. As a result, the Nikkei Average recorded a year-to-date high of 45,754yen on September 25. Soon thereafter, the Nikkei Average took a breather in the form of a backlash from a sharp rising and closed the period at 44,932yen.

      In the foreign currency market, the yen started off the period at the level of 149yen per 1 U.S. dollar. Thereafter, the yen strengthened to the higher side of the 139yen per 1 U.S. dollar level on April 22. As there was no request from the U.S. side for the setting of exchange rate target and the raising of interest rate by the Bank of Japan at the U.S.-Japan Finance Ministers Meeting on foreign exchange (which started in April), the yen ended the period at the higher side of the 147yen per 1 U.S. dollar level.

      In the Growth Section of the TSE for companies with high growth potential, the TSE Growth Section Index started off the period at 820. The Index plummeted to 686 on April 7, and thereafter turned upward, closing the period at 970. TSE Growth Section 250 Index started off the period at 636, and plummeted to 534 on April 7. Thereafter, this index turned upward and closed the period at 745.

      In the Prime Section of the TSE, the daily average turnover was 5,536.8 billion yen. In the Standard Section of the TSE, the daily average turnover was 199.8 billion yen. In the Growth Section of the TSE, the daily average turnover was 212.3 billion yen.

      Under these circumstances, the Company has been aiming to build customer-focused "Stock-Type Business Model," and exerting its efforts to increase core-stock assets in fund-wrap accounts and investment trust funds in order to expand its customers' assets in custody to 3 trillion yen as a numerical target under the Medium-Term Management Plan"3・D."

      The Company regards the cost coverage ratio as the most appropriate index which indicates the degree of the Company's advance towards "Stock-Type Business Model" (asset-accumulation type business model). The cost coverage ratio for the first half of fiscal 2025 ended September 30, 2025 was 75.6%, up from 72.5% for the year-earlier period. (The cost coverage ratio is the ratio at

      which the sum of fund management fees, trailer fees and wrap-account fees cover selling, general and administrative expenses.)

      Also, fees on stable-income sources accounted for 64.3% of total fees and commissions received, up from 62.5%.

      With regard to "Dream Collection," a fund wrap account vehicle and a core of "Stock Type

      Business Model," it enjoys an increasing popularity among customers as a medium- to long-term investment vehicle for customers' conservative assets. It has recorded its 10-year anniversary in July 2025. Its outstanding balance as of September 30, 2025, amounted to 383.4 billion yen, up 27.9%.

      The Company started new services from 2024: namely, "Dre-Colle NISA" (which can be used as a growth investment frame for NISA investments) and "Dre-Colle Mini" (which is an automatic monthly subscription type). By combining "Dre-Colle Pass" (which makes the succession of the fund to next generations possible without cashing in the fund) with the new two services, the Company can support its clients' asset-formation for a medium- to long-term across generations.

      With respect to investment trust funds (other than Dream Collection), the Company has recommended stock funds matching customers' needs, such as "BlackRock World High Dividend Equity Open," "Ichiyoshi Global Equity Fund" and "Ichiyoshi Japan Select Dividend Equity & J-REIT Fund."

      The outstanding balances of these funds as of September 30, 2025, amounted to 839.6 billion yen, up 6.9%.

      With respect to Ichiyoshi Asset Management Co., Ltd., the assets under its management continued to increase and amounted to 674.9billion yen as of September 30, 2025, up 18.9%.

      With respect to activities on stocks, the Company has proposed to customers asset-backed stocks with stress on stability and stable dividends under inflationary circumstances. In addition, the Company has recommended to customers investment in small- and medium-cap growth stocks selected based on Ichiyoshi Research Institute's strength in research. The Company has thus continued to make various proposals and recommendations to promote stocks as means of medium- to long-term asset-formation.

      As a result of these activities, net operating revenue amounted to 10,572 million yen, up 8.9%. Selling, general and administrative expenses recorded 8,729 million yen, up 6.7%. Thus, operation profit amounted to 1,843 million yen, up 20.9%.

      Customers' asset under custody amounted to 2,485 billion yen, up 12.7%.
