Our U.S. GAAP results on a consolidated basis for the year ended March 31, 2025 remain subject to the completion of management’s reviews and reconciliations and/or adjustments under U.S. GAAP, the Company’s other financial closing procedures, and the audit by the Company’s independent auditor in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, and may differ from non-consolidated basis, Japanese GAAP results for this period due to the completion of the Company’s financial closing procedures, the audit under the standards of the PCAOB, the differences between non-consolidated basis results and consolidated basis results, and other developments that may arise during the audit process.
The Company’s independent U.S. auditor has not audited, reviewed, compiled, or performed any procedures with respect to the Japanese GAAP financial results presented in the business report or the accompanying Japanese GAAP financial statements under either the standards of the PCAOB or U.S. GAAS.

As such, this Japanese GAAP financial information should not be viewed as a substitute for the Company’s audited annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of any future period. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on this Japanese GAAP information.

Notes:
| 1. | There is no special interest between the director candidates and the Company. |
| 2. | Mr. Tamotsu Moriyama, Mr. Seishi Miyajima, Mr. Izumi Takemoto, Mr. Hajime Yamashita, and Mr. John A. Stapleton are candidates for Independent Directors. |
| 3. | Mr. Tamotsu Moriyama is nominated as a candidate for Independent Director because he has served as representative director and president of Maxus Corporate Advisory Inc. and as an Independent Director of SBI Sumishin Net Bank, Ltd., which will enable him to supervise the Company’s management and provide advice on overall management matters, thereby contributing to the enhancement of our corporate governance. We also expect that he will utilize his expertise and experience as a certified public accountant and financial advisor in M&A and corporate finance in the management of the Company. We therefore request that Mr. Tamotsu Moriyama continue to be elected as an Independent Director of the Company. |
| 4. | Mr. Seishi Miyajima is nominated as a candidate for Independent Director because of his broad insight and extensive experience in the real estate business, including service as an executive officer of Nomura Real Estate Holdings, Inc. and representative director of Nomura Real Estate Urban Net Co., Ltd. We therefore request that Mr. Seishi Miyajima continue to be elected as an Independent Director of the Company. |
| 5. | Mr. Izumi Takemoto is nominated as an Independent Director because of his wide range of insight and abundant experience in the hotel business, including his service as a director of Kyoritsu Maintenance Co., Ltd. We therefore request that Mr. Izumi Takemoto continue to be elected as an Independent Director. |
| 6. | Mr. Hajime Yamashita is nominated as an Independent Director because he has broad insight and abundant experience in the financial industry, including serving as an executive officer of Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, and we particularly expect him to supervise the business execution of the Company’s finance division. We therefore request that Mr. Hajime Yamashita continue to be elected as an Independent Director. |
| 7. | Mr. John A. Stapleton is nominated as an independent director because of his professional knowledge and broad experience as an attorney, and we expect him to participate as an Independent Director and to play a supervisory and auditing role by making comments, etc. at meetings of the Board of Directors. We therefore request that Mr. John A. Stapleton continue to be elected as an Independent Director. Although he does not have experiences of being involved with the management of companies in the past, for the reasons stated above, we believe that he will be able to appropriately perform his duties as an Independent Director. |
| 8. | Conclusion of liability limitation agreement |
| Pursuant to Article 427, Paragraph 1 of the Companies Act of Japan, the Company entered into an agreement with candidates of Independent Directors to limit their liability for damages under Article 423, Paragraph 1 of the same law, and intends to continue such agreement if the reelection of the candidates for Independent Director is approved. The maximum amount of liability for damages under the said agreement is the minimum liability amount stipulated by laws and regulations. | |
| 9. | Conclusion of officers’ liability insurance agreement |
| The Company entered a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance agreement with an insurance company pursuant to Article 430-3, Paragraph 1 of the Companies Act of Japan to cover damages arising from the insured being held liable for the performance of his/her duties as a director or officer or from receiving claims related to the pursuit of such liability under said insurance agreement. If the candidate is elected as a director, he/she will be included as an insured under such insurance agreement. The Company intends to renew such insurance agreement during the term of office of the director proposed in this Proposal. | |
| 10. | Execution of indemnity agreement |
| The Company entered into an indemnification agreement with all of its Directors and Corporate Auditors of the Company as stipulated in Article 430-2, Paragraph 1 of the Companies Act of Japan, and intends to continue such agreement if the reelection of the candidates is approved. Under such indemnity agreement, the Company will indemnify the candidates for the expenses stipulated in Article 430-2, Paragraph 1, Item 1 of the Companies Act of Japan and the losses stipulated in Item 2 of the same Article to the extent provided by law. |

Proposal No. 4: Election of Accounting Auditor
The Company’s stated capital exceeded JPY 500 million during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. As a result, upon approval of Proposal No. 1, the Company will be classified as a “Large Company” under the Companies Act of Japan and, pursuant to Article 328, Paragraph 1 of the Act, will be required to appoint an accounting auditor. Accordingly, subject to the approval of Proposal No. 2 (Amendments to the Articles of Incorporation), the Company hereby proposes the election of one accounting auditor.
Note:
The accounting auditor to be elected under this proposal is the statutory accounting auditor under the Companies Act of Japan. This election does not relate to the appointment of the certifying accountant for the Company’s U.S. GAAP financial statements filed with the SEC.
This proposal is based on a resolution of the Board of Corporate Auditors. The Board of Corporate Auditors has nominated KSM & Partners, an audit corporation, as the candidate for accounting auditor in view of its extensive experience and expertise in statutory audits, as well as its independence and audit quality.
The candidate for accounting auditor is as follows:
(As of March 31, 2025)

Proposal No. 6: Establishment of a Performance Share Plan with Post-Vesting Delivery and Approval of Remuneration Thereunder for Directors (excluding Independent Directors), Executive Officers, and Directors of Subsidiaries
The maximum amount of remuneration for the Company’s Directors has been approved at no more than JPY 300 million per year at the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 30, 2017. However, in order to (i) provide Directors with incentives to contribute to the sustainable enhancement of the Company’s corporate value by further strengthening the linkage between Director remuneration and the Company’s business performance and stock value, and (ii) promote greater value-sharing with shareholders, the Company hereby seeks approval for the introduction of a new performance-based stock compensation plan with post-vesting delivery (the “Plan”) for Directors of the Company (excluding Independent Directors; the “Eligible Directors”) separately from the existing remuneration framework. The Company also seeks approval to introduce a similar plan for Executive Officers who do not concurrently serve as Directors of the Company and for Directors of the Company’s subsidiaries.

I. Introduction of the Plan for Eligible Directors
The Plan is structured as a post-vesting delivery type performance share plan. Under the Plan, the Company will grant monetary claims to the Eligible Directors and pay cash in an amount calculated with reference to the applicable tax obligations of the Eligible Directors after the end of a performance evaluation period (the “Performance Evaluation Period”), which shall be at least one year as determined by the Board of Directors. The number of the Company’s common shares (“Company Shares”) to be delivered and the amount of the cash to be paid to each Eligible Director will be calculated based on the degree of achievement of performance targets during the Performance Evaluation Period and the period of service during a separately defined service period (the “Service Period”), also to be at least one year. The Company Shares will be delivered upon issuance of new shares or disposition of treasury shares by the Company by way of a contribution in kind of the entire amount of the monetary claim granted to each Eligible Director (Note 1). In addition, the Company will pay cash in an amount calculated with reference to the applicable tax obligations of the Eligible Directors.
The total amount of the monetary claims and cash to be granted under the Plan to the Eligible Directors for each Performance Evaluation Period shall not exceed JPY 200 million (excluding salaries for Directors who also serve as employees), and the total number of Company Shares to be delivered shall not exceed 500,000 shares per Performance Evaluation Period (Note 2).
The per-share payment amount for the Company Shares shall be determined by the Board of Directors based on the closing price of the Company Shares on the NYSE American (if the Company changes its listing venue, such U.S. securities exchange after the change shall apply; hereinafter the same shall apply) on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the resolution of the Board of Directors approving the issuance or disposal of the Company Shares (or the closing price on the most recent trading day if no trades occurred on such date), converted into Japanese yen at the exchange rate on such trading day, and shall not be particularly favorable to the Eligible Directors (Note 3). As of the date hereof, the Company has 11 Directors (6 of which are Independent Directors). If Proposal No. 3 is approved as originally proposed, the number of Directors will be 10 (5 of which are Independent Directors).
| Note 1: | If an Eligible Director resigns or retires due to death during the Service Period, the delivery timing of the remuneration shall be within five months from the date of such resignation or retirement. In such case, no contribution in kind shall be made, and instead of granting a monetary claim, the Company shall make a cash payment to the heir(s) of the Eligible Director. In addition, if a corporate reorganization such as a merger agreement under which the Company will cease to exist, a share exchange agreement or share transfer plan under which the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary, a company split plan or absorption-type company split agreement, a share consolidation resulting in a specific shareholder gaining control, acquisition of all shares of a class with acquisition clauses, or a demand for sale of shares (collectively, “Reorganization Events”) is approved at a General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company (or by the Board of Directors, if shareholder approval is not required), and such Reorganization Event is scheduled to take effect before the delivery date under the Plan, the delivery timing shall be within 30 days from the date of such approval, and the Company shall make a cash payment to the Eligible Director in lieu of granting a monetary claim. |
| Note 2: | If the total number of issued shares of the Company changes due to a stock consolidation or stock split (including stock dividends; the same applies hereinafter to descriptions of stock splits), the maximum number of shares to be delivered shall be adjusted according to the applicable ratio. |

In the event of any inconsistencies or discrepancies between this translation and the original Japanese document, the Japanese version shall take precedence. The Company accepts no liability for any direct, indirect, or other damages arising from the use of this translation.
| Note 3: | If an Eligible Director resigns or retires due to death during the Service Period, the Company will pay an amount of cash equivalent to the value of the share-based compensation instead of delivering Company Shares, as described in Note 1. In such cases, the per-share payment amount shall be determined by the Board of Directors based on the closing price of the Company Shares on the NYSE American on the trading day immediately preceding the date of such resignation or retirement (or the closing price on the most recent trading day if no trades occurred on such date), converted into Japanese yen at the exchange rate on such trading day, and shall not be particularly favorable to the Eligible Director. In addition, if a Reorganization Event (as defined in Note 1) is approved at a General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company (or by the Board of Directors if shareholder approval is not required) during the Service Period, the Company will pay an amount of cash equivalent to the value of the share-based compensation instead of delivering Company Shares, as described in Note 1. In such case, the per-share payment amount shall be determined by the Board of Directors based on the closing price of the Company Shares on the NYSE American on the trading day immediately preceding the date of such approval (or the closing price on the most recent trading day if no trades occurred on such date), converted into Japanese yen at the exchange rate on such trading day, and shall not be particularly favorable to the Eligible Director. In any case, if the amount of such cash calculated exceeds JPY 200 million per Performance Evaluation Period, the amount to be paid shall be reasonably adjusted not to exceed such limit. |
The specific timing and content of the delivery of Company Shares and cash to each Eligible Director shall be determined by the Board of Directors pursuant to the authority delegated under this resolution of the General Meeting of Shareholders. The Plan has been designed in line with the objectives described above, and the Company believes its content to be appropriate.
[Method for Calculating the Amounts of Monetary Claims and Cash under the Plan]
1. Method for Calculating the Amounts of Monetary Claims and Cash
The number of shares to be ultimately delivered to each Eligible Director (the “Final Number of Delivered Shares”) shall be calculated as follows: the number of base shares (the “Base Number of Shares”) calculated by dividing the base amount of share-based compensation (the “Base Amount”), which shall be predetermined individually for each Eligible Director by the Board of Directors, by the “Reference Share Price” (i.e., the closing price of the Company Shares on the NYSE American on the trading day immediately preceding the first day of the Service Period, or the most recent closing price if no trades occurred, converted into Japanese yen based on the exchange rate on such day), multiplied by the Achievement Rate of Performance Targets (Note 4), the Service Period Ratio (Note 5), the Position Adjustment Ratio (Note 6), and the stock delivery ratio (67%) (Notes 7 and 8). Any fractional share less than one shall be rounded down.
| 22 |

In the event of any inconsistencies or discrepancies between this translation and the original Japanese document, the Japanese version shall take precedence. The Company accepts no liability for any direct, indirect, or other damages arising from the use of this translation.
The amount of cash to be delivered to each Eligible Director (the “Final Cash Amount”) shall be calculated by multiplying the Base Number of Shares by the Achievement Rate of Performance Targets, the Service Period Ratio, the Position Adjustment Ratio, and the cash delivery ratio (33%), and then multiplying that figure by the Share Price at Time of Delivery, taking into account the amount of income taxes and other applicable taxes to be borne by the Eligible Director (Notes 9 and 10).
| Note 4: | The Achievement Rate of Performance Targets shall range from 0% to 200%, based on performance indicators (financial and/or non-financial) reflective of the Group’s profitability and management policies, as determined by resolution of the Board of Directors in advance. |
| Note 5: | If an Eligible Director is newly appointed during the Service Period or resigns or retires for legitimate reasons during the Service Period, the amount of the monetary claim shall be prorated based on the number of months served. (See (iii) below for adjustment details.) |
| Note 6: | If there is a change in position during the Service Period, the number of shares to be delivered shall be adjusted to reflect the new position. |
| Note 7: | Any fractional share less than one resulting from the calculation of the Final Number of Delivered Shares shall be rounded down. |
| Note 8: | If the Final Number of Delivered Shares calculated per Performance Evaluation Period exceeds the maximum limit of 500,000 shares, such number shall be reasonably adjusted not to exceed the limit. If the number of issued shares of the Company increases or decreases due to stock consolidation or stock split (including stock dividends), the number of shares to be delivered shall be adjusted in proportion to the ratio of such change. Specifically, the Final Number of Delivered Shares before adjustment shall be multiplied by the consolidation/split ratio to obtain the adjusted number. |
| Note 9: | Any amount less than one yen resulting from the calculation of the Final Cash Amount shall be rounded down. |
| Note 10: | If the sum of the Final Cash Amount calculated per Performance Evaluation Period and the monetary claims granted for issuance of the Final Number of Delivered Shares exceeds the limit of JPY 200 million, the amount shall be reasonably adjusted not to exceed the limit. |
The summary of the method for calculating is as following:
Final Number of Shares Delivered =
Base Number of Shares (i) × Achievement Rate of Performance Targets (ii) × Service Period Ratio (iii) × Position Adjustment
Ratio (iv) × Share Delivery Ratio (67%)
Final Amount of Cash Delivered =
Base Number of Shares (i) × Achievement Rate of Performance Targets (ii) × Service Period Ratio (iii) × Position Adjustment
Ratio (iv) × Cash Delivery Ratio (33%) × Share Price at Time of Delivery (v)

In the event of any inconsistencies or discrepancies between this translation and the original Japanese document, the Japanese version shall take precedence. The Company accepts no liability for any direct, indirect, or other damages arising from the use of this translation.
(i) Base Number of Shares
The Base Number of Shares shall be calculated as follows:
Base Number of Shares = Base Amount / Reference Share Price
(a) Base Amount
The Base Amount for each Director shall be set individually or by position, as delegated to the Board of Directors.
(b) Reference Share Price
The Reference Share Price shall be the closing price of the Company Shares on the NYSE American on the trading day immediately preceding the first day of the Service Period (or the most recent closing price if no trades occurred), converted into Japanese yen at the exchange rate on such day.
(ii) Achievement Rate of Performance Targets
The Board of Directors shall predefine a set of one or more performance indicators and evaluation methods, which may include financial and/or non-financial metrics aligned with the Company’s management policy. The range shall be from 0% to 200%. The Plan may continue to be implemented beyond the initial Performance Evaluation Period within the approved scope.
(iii) Service Period Ratio
To prorate the number of shares granted based on the period of service, the Service Period Ratio shall be calculated using a method predetermined by the Board of Directors. If the Director is appointed or resigns/retires in the middle of a month, such month shall be counted as a full month.
(iv) Position Adjustment Ratio
The position adjustment ratio shall be set by the Board of Directors to reflect any change in position during the Service Period.
(v) Share Price at Time of Delivery
The Share Price at Time of Delivery shall be determined by the Board of Directors based on the closing price of the Company Shares on the NYSE American on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the Board resolution approving such issuance or disposal of Company Shares (or the most recent closing price if no trades occurred), converted into Japanese yen at the exchange rate on such day, and shall not be particularly favorable to the Eligible Director.

I. Current Status of the Company
1.Progress and results of the business
During the fiscal year under review, the Japanese economy maintained a gradual recovery trend, but the situation remained highly uncertain due to rising prices, slowdown of overseas economies, and heightened geopolitical risks. Although personal consumption showed a recovery trend, a decline in real purchasing power due to high prices partially affected the economy.

In the real estate market, while demand for offices and residences in urban areas remained firm, there were phases in which rising construction costs and material prices placed certain constraints on investment activities. In the hotel industry, the number of foreign visitors to Japan recovered significantly, partly due to the relaxation of waterfront measures and the weak yen, and demand for lodging rose nationwide. In particular, investment in the redevelopment and development of lodging facilities is progressing not only in urban centers but also in regional areas, and the ripple effect on local economies is also becoming apparent.
In this environment, on March 25, 2025, we became the first Japanese company that is not listed in Japan to list its shares directly on the NYSE American market without using ADRs (American Depositary Receipts). This listing was made with the aim of increasing the Company’s international recognition and expanding procurement opportunities in the capital markets and was an important step in supporting the Company’s medium- to long-term growth strategy.
During the fiscal year under review, the Company recorded operating revenue of JPY 2,147,847 thousand, a 296.1% increase year-on-year, primarily due to dividend income of JPY 1,600,000 thousand received from subsidiaries. Despite increased personnel costs resulting from the recruitment of executives and senior-level professionals to strengthen corporate governance (an increase of JPY 54,493 thousand), as well as office relocation-related expenses (JPY 27,944 thousand), the Company achieved operating profit of JPY 1,142,478 thousand (a 941.0% increase year-on-year), ordinary profit of JPY 1,131,864 thousand (a 989.7% increase year-on-year), and net income of JPY 1,222,702 thousand (a 1,530.8% increase year-on-year).
