Announcement regarding the listing of ROKAE, a robot manufacturer handled by our company, on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

We are pleased to announce that ROKAE (headquartered in China), a robot manufacturer for which IDEC Factory Solutions Co., Ltd. serves as the domestic sales agent, officially listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on July 9, 2026.

In 2024, our company narrowed its focus to ROKAE collaborative robots for domestic deployment, and we have been working to achieve high quality and reliability in the Japanese market. This new listing is a result of ROKAE's acquisition of high product value and public social credibility in the global market, and we are confident that it proves the correct choice of our partner companies and end users who have adopted and promoted ROKAE products to date.

Taking this listing on the market as an opportunity, ROKAE is accelerating the further strengthening of its management system in accordance with global standards, and has completed a renewal of its management foundation and governance system by recruiting highly skilled professionals from outside the company.

In conjunction with this, we at our company will further enhance our technical support and quality assurance system so that our "ROCKY TEAM" partner companies in Japan, as well as our end users, can use our products with even greater confidence and peace of mind.

Currently, our technical and quality assurance personnel are directly visiting ROKAE's headquarters in China to discuss deepening technical collaboration to meet the requirements of the Japanese market, conducting regular audits to improve quality, and establishing a rapid support system. Backed by ROKAE's strong capital and organizational capabilities as a listed company, we will create an environment that can provide even stronger support to your sites.

Going forward, ROKAE Seiki, ROKAE Headquarters, and IDEC Factory Solutions will work together in the Japanese market to become a true "one team" with our partner companies, and we intend to contribute even more to solving challenges such as automation and labor shortages in Japan's manufacturing industry.

Taking this significant milestone of going public as an opportunity, we will further strengthen our product supply and support system, and work together as a company to deliver even greater value to everyone.

We sincerely hope for your continued patronage in the future.
