2. Reasons
As announced in our news release of March 1, 2017 entitled "SDK to Further Postpone Announcement of 2016 Financial Results," closing procedures at our consolidated subsidiary Shoko Co., Ltd. are being delayed. Audits by auditing corporation and the Audit & Supervisory Board will not be completed prior to our ordinary general meeting of shareholders for the 108th business term scheduled for March 30, 2017.
As we cannot finalize our financial statements for the 108th business term at this moment, we are unable to submit a proposal for appropriation of surplus based on the record date of December 31, 2016 to the ordinary general meeting of shareholders.
After the financial statements for the 108th business term are finalized, we will make a decision on dividend payment and set a new record date. We will announce our decision and results of study as quickly as possible.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused to our shareholders, investors, and other parties concerned.
