Tokyo Lifestyle entered into a five-year subordinated unsecured loan agreement for JPY 300M with its controlling shareholder, Tokushin G. K., a limited liability entity owned by the Company's Representative Director and Principal Executive Officer, Mr. Mei Kanayama, and his family, on November 27, 2025. The funding is intended to support the Company's future growth and development initiatives. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, Tokyo Lifestyle received the loan proceeds from Tokushin on February 1, 2026. The loan term commenced on the same date and will mature on January 31, 2031. Repayment will follow a schedule mutually agreed upon by both parties. Tokyo Lifestyle will pay interest monthly and will settle the principal in a lump sum upon maturity. The loan bears a fixed annual interest rate of 2.0%, which is slightly higher than prevailing commercial lending rates in Japan in the current high-interest-rate environment.

Tokyo Lifestyle announced that Mr. Mei Kanayama, Representative Director and Principal Executive Officer of the Company, has issued a letter to shareholders, which read in part, "As 2026 approaches, on behalf of the management of Tokyo Lifestyle Co., Ltd., I would like to review our strategic execution in 2025 and outline the strategic priorities that will guide us in 2026 and beyond. In 2025, the global macroeconomic environment remained challenging, shaped by geopolitical tensions, supply chain realignments, and volatile foreign exchange fluctuations. Rather than retreating defensively in the face of these pressures, the Company pursued proactive, forward-looking strategic adjustments coupled with disciplined execution. We successfully transitioned from a strategy of 'scale expansion' to one centered on "quality improvement and efficiency enhancement." As a result, we demonstrated strong operational resilience amidst uncertainties while achieving meaningful progress in key financial metrics and building a more sustainable and diversified global footprint...Looking ahead to 2026, while macroeconomic uncertainties are gradually easing, competitive intensity remains high. Tokyo Lifestyle will continue to adhere to its operating philosophy of 'bold planning, prudent validation and decisive execution.' Building on our global footprint and superior operational efficiency, we will focus on: 1. Continuously improving store-level profitability; 2. Deepening supply chain integration to further unlock margin potential; and 3. Expanding asset-light partnership models to accelerate global brand penetration."

Tokyo Lifestyle announced that the interim dividend of JPY1.890 per share for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026 previously approved by its board of directors was paid on December 19, 2025 to shareholders of record as of September 30, 2025, with an American depositary receipt record date of September 30, 2025.
