Renet Japan CEO Salon Surpasses 5,000 Members in Six Months Since Launch

Renet Japan Group Inc. (Headquarters: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture; President and CEO: Takeshi Kuroda) is pleased to announce that the number of members for the 'Renet Japan CEO Salon' (hereinafter, 'the Salon'), a free membership service for individual investors, has surpassed 5,000 (as of May 2026) approximately six months after its launch. The Salon was established in November 2025 as a platform for two-way communication between President and CEO Kuroda and individual investors. It is operated with the aim of providing individual investors with high-density dialogue opportunities similar to one-on-one meetings typically offered to institutional investors. ■ Background of Surpassing 5,000 Members Approximately 70% of the company's shareholders are individual investors (as of March 2026), making the strengthening of communication with individual investors a key management theme. Based on this philosophy, the initiative where the CEO himself regularly takes the stage to directly explain business progress and growth strategies has resonated with investors, leading to rapid membership growth. In particular, the following aspects of 'interactivity' and 'transparency' have been highly evaluated and have attracted the interest of many individual investors: - Online broadcasts where President and CEO Kuroda directly explains the latest management conditions - Real-time responses to questions from investors - Continuous information dissemination (e.g., IR magazine) ■ Main Features of the 'Renet Japan CEO Salon' The Salon is evolving traditional IR activities through the following initiatives: - CEO Salon live broadcasts twice a month (in principle, held every other Monday) - Email magazine distribution specializing in IR information (via email or LINE) - Video distribution of facility tours (logistics centers, recycling centers, etc.) (currently in preparation) By having President and CEO Kuroda participate live and directly convey the real business situation and strategy, the company aims to promote understanding and build trust. ■ Comment from President and CEO Takeshi Kuroda 'The CEO Salon was established as a place to correctly convey our management philosophy, going beyond the framework of IR. I am deeply grateful that the number of members has exceeded 5,000 and that we have received such high expectations from so many people. Our company is currently challenging itself with a unique business model that links our recycling business (environment) and social care business (disability welfare) to solve social issues while generating profit. I feel a great sense of accomplishment in meeting investors who understand this essence and are willing to work with us on value creation over the medium to long term. We will continue our management approach, which aims to achieve both business growth and enhanced shareholder value, with unwavering persistence.' ■ Future Outlook The company will continue to further strengthen engagement with individual investors, primarily through this Salon, and promote highly transparent information disclosure and dialogue. Furthermore, through this initiative, the company aims to deepen understanding of its business and contribute to long-term investment decisions. ■ Service Overview Name: Renet Japan CEO Salon Format: Free membership Content: Online briefings, CEO talks, IR information distribution, etc. URL: https://corp.renet.jp/ir/ceosalon/ ■ Company Overview [Company Name] Renet Japan Group Inc.
