Notice Regarding Revision of the Medium-Term Management Plan

We would like to inform you that we have revised the Medium-Term Management Plan "Creative 60" (FY2020-FY2024) announced on December 6, 2019 as follows:

1. Reasons for the revision

When the medium-term management plan was announced public investment remained firm, centering on disaster prevention/mitigation-related construction and maintenance/renewal of aging social infrastructure, and private construction investment also showed signs of improvement, centering on redevelopment projects in metropolitan areas in the construction industry which the Group is involved in.

However, from the initial year of FY2020, the socio-economic environment changed unexpectedly due to the spread of COVID-19, and the business environment continued to be more severe than originally anticipated, including rising construction costs due to shortages in the supply of semiconductors, soaring material and energy prices, and a worsening shortage of skilled construction workers.

Under these circumstances, although the Group has been working to achieve the Medium-Term Management Plan "Creative 60," based on the financial results for the fiscal year ended October 2022 and the earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending October 2023 announced today, as well as the recent business environment, we have decided to revise the medium-term corporate management plan.

In the future, we will also continue to follow the conventional priority measures of expansion of the Kanamoto domestic base of operations, overseas expansion, optimize internal operational processes. Furthermore, we will further strengthen the resilience of our business by developing our business with an awareness of sustainability and actively responding to various changes in the social environment (transformation), and we will further increase our corporate value.

(2) Sustainability management promotion

For the Company to sustainably improve corporate value, based on the idea that is necessary to actively and proactively respond to issues related to environmental and social sustainability, we will formulate a basic sustainability policy, and we are working to develop a framework and system to put this into practice.

In this medium-term management plan, we have included promotion of sustainability management to incorporate sustainability into management more than ever. We are aiming to solve problems related to environmental and social issues and further integrate them with the business of the Group and we aim to improve corporate value to achieve sustainable growth.
