Strike Group Launches New Web Media 'STRIKE+' on note pro

Strike Group Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Kunihiko Arai; hereafter 'Strike Group') has completely revamped its previous paper and PDF-based PR magazine to launch 'STRIKE+,' a new web media outlet on note pro designed to deliver deeper and more timely information.

### Background of 'STRIKE+' Launch For 15 years, Strike Group has provided information to stakeholders through its PR magazine 'STRIKE.' As societal interest in M&A and business succession has grown significantly, the group's business has expanded beyond M&A brokerage into strategic consulting and financial advisory services.

To provide timely and multi-faceted information to a broader audience, the group launched 'STRIKE+' utilizing the note pro platform.

M&A is a critical decision that determines a company's future. As an M&A support firm, Strike Group aims to consolidate the 'knowledge' accumulated across its group companies to provide business owners with a 'judgment axis for the future' for making informed decisions. The group strives for a society where everyone can envision their future with peace of mind and make optimal choices.

### Featured Content - **New Exit Strategies for Unlisted Stocks**: An interview with Japan Corporate Investment Base (JCIP), a unique 'quiet shareholder' specializing in minority stakes of less than 20%. - **3-Minute Digest**: Summary of Strike Group's Q2 earnings for the fiscal year ending September 2026, announced on April 30, 2026.

### Monthly Email Newsletter Along with the launch of 'STRIKE+,' the official email newsletter will also be renewed, delivering featured articles and seminar information once a month. Existing subscribers to the previous magazine's newsletter will automatically continue their subscription.

### Editorial Comment 'Can we make the option of M&A more transparent and accessible?' This question is at the heart of the 'STRIKE+' launch. By moving from paper to web media, the group can deliver information faster and through more diverse expressions. The goal is for this platform to be a reassuring guide for business owners facing challenges in business succession or corporate growth.
