I would like to extend my sincerest wishes for a Happy New Year.
I am deeply grateful for the exceptional support and kindness you have shown us throughout the past year.

Last year was marked by a series of shocking events, including the Noto Peninsula earthquake on New Year's Day and the subsequent accidents, as well as a number of earthquakes and heavy rainfalls.On the other hand, we were inspired by the remarkable achievements of Japanese athletes competing on the global stage, such as the outstanding performance of Shohei Ohtani in Major League Baseball and the success of Japanese Olympians and Paralympians in Paris.

Meanwhile, conflicts around the world remain unresolved, and the global situation continues to be unstable.Amidst this turbulent environment, there have been changes in political leadership, including the transition of the Prime Minister of Japan and the U.S. presidential election, drawing significant attention to political developments.The year 2025 marks a significant turning point for society, requiring us to question and re-examine our conventional wisdom.

We view the changes in the business environment as an opportunity for growth, and we will undertake a fundamental review, strengthening, and reform of our various business foundations, such as renewable energy, real estate, and resorts.While exploring new business ventures, we will re-evaluate our company's strengths and strive to build a resilient "One Team" management and organizational structure that can withstand the changes in the external environment.

In closing, I would like to wish you a happy new year, and pray that 2025 will be a good year together with all of you involved with Blue Capital Management and the Blue Group.
