Notice on Issuance of a Sponsored Research Report

Kokuyo Co., Ltd. (hereafter “the Company”) decided to commission a sponsored
research report written in English to improve communication with overseas investors,
and promote better understanding of the Company.


The research report was written by Nippon Investment Bespoke Research UK Ltd
(www.nippon-ibr.com), an independent research boutique specialised in the Japanese
equities based in London, UK. The report does not carry any investment
recommendation - it is solely prepared based on publicly available information and
explains our business model, the past earnings trend and the guidance and
medium/long-term management vision, and supports our investor relations activities to
foreign investors. As of today, there is no analyst report coverage written in English on
our company, therefore, the report was first written in English followed by a Japanese
language summary report. The report can be accessed by clicking the link below.
