Nichirei Corporation plans to shift its fiscal year to run from January 1 to December 31, unifying the year-end across the parent company and its consolidated subsidiaries to support a more globally aligned management structure. The company says the change is intended to improve the timeliness and clarity of its financial disclosure, potentially aiding investors in comparing performance on an international basis.

As a result, the 109th fiscal period will be a one-time nine-month term from April 1, 2026 to December 31, 2026, a transitional step that may temporarily affect the timing of reported earnings and dividend payments.
