Message from Chairman & CEO  Makoto  Inoue

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to our shareholders for their continued understanding and support of our business. My name is Makoto Inoue, and I have recently assumed the position of Representative Director and Chairman.

During the fiscal year ending March 2026, we sold all shares of our subsidiary, Nippon Nozzle Co., Ltd., and used the proceeds to strengthen our financial position. Subsequently, beginning in April, we injected additional capital into Zeo Next Co., Ltd., the subsidiary to which we transferred our nanosize zeolite business. Building on these measures, our group will now focus on business activities aligned with our new growth strategy, “Re-Start 2026.”

Although our company does not deal exclusively in “super-hard” materials—as implied by our name—we will continue to promote the name “Nakamura Chokou” worldwide as a symbol of our corporate spirit of taking on the challenge of new materials and technologies. Please look forward to the next great leap forward by Nakamura Chokou Co., Ltd. under this new organizational structure.

Message from Chairman & CEO   Hiroaki  Inoue

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for your continued support. My name is Hiroaki Inoue, and I have recently assumed the position of President and CEO. As I take on this role, I am deeply aware of the weight of this responsibility, and I am committed to doing my utmost to drive the company’s further growth and enhance its corporate value. We will cherish and carry forward the “spirit of challenge” that our company has cultivated over the years, and we will take on the challenge of creating new value without fear of change. At the same time, we believe that strengthening our business foundation is essential to achieving sustainable growth. Therefore, we will prioritize enhancing the profitability of our core businesses—the Specialized Precision Equipment Business and the D-NEXT Business—as one of our top priorities, with the goal of establishing a stable revenue base. While striving to balance taking on new challenges with strengthening profitability, we will steadily advance management reforms and growth strategies to ensure we remain a company that meets the expectations of our customers, employees, and shareholders. We ask for the continued support and encouragement of our shareholders.
