(Supplementary material) Changes From the Same Period of the Previous Year

1. Implementation of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)
2. • IFRS has been applied on a voluntary basis from 1Q of FY2023 in order to provide more useful information and improve convenience
   • "Business profit," calculated as revenue less cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses, is newly disclosed
   • Fluctuation risk in net income is reduced as fluctuations in stock market value, except for some stocks, will no longer affect the profit and loss statement
   • Results of all subsidiaries are disclosed as if the fiscal year ended in March as required by IFRS accounting standards where the fiscal years of all group companies must be unified
   • The figures for the cumulative consolidated term in 1H of the previous year are also disclosed according to IFRS
3. The Impact of the Change in Revenue Recognition at Wacoal
4. • Sales of consumption transactions in department store, etc., were changed to an over- the-counter price basis in the period under review
   • Because this change will increase sales revenue and SG&A expenses by the same amount, operating income will not be affected.
   • This change has boosted 1H sales revenue by approximately JPY2.6 billion (main factor of boost in sales revenue and SG&A expenses).
