[Speaker] CBRE, Inc. Research Senior Director, Mr. Arishi Iwama [Key Lecture Content] Due to the spread of cloud computing and AI, the supply and demand for data centers in the metropolitan area is tightening. There are numerous development plans for data centers, and it is expected that the market size in the metropolitan area will expand by approximately 3.3 times in the future. However, securing the necessary power for the establishment of data centers in the metropolitan area can take up to 10 years in some cases. As a result, securing power has become the biggest bottleneck in data center development. On the other hand, it is anticipated that the decentralization of data centers will progress in the future, supported by government policies and aimed at securing power. This lecture will explain the trends in the data center market, future outlook, and characteristics as an investment target. [Lecture Items] 1. Overview of the data center market in the metropolitan area 2. Outlook for data center power demand and measures to alleviate power supply and demand tightness 3. Overview and location conditions of data centers 4. Potential of AI data centers in regional decentralization 5. Data centers as an investment target 6. Q&A / Business card exchange

[Speaker] Hideo Hakomori, Chief Analyst, Equity Research Department, Daiwa Securities Co., Ltd. [Key Lecture Content] For Japan's automotive industry, which has expanded through globalization, global divisions such as U.S. tariffs and conflicts in the Middle East present headwinds. Additionally, responding to the rise of Chinese competitors is urgent, making it difficult to steer growth strategies. Nevertheless, a "once-in-a-century transformation" is occurring. The axis of competition has shifted from a "two-dimensional world map" to a "three-dimensional map with a time axis." Rather than Renault-Nissan, Nissan's collaboration with Honda seems inevitable despite various twists and turns. This lecture will explore this background while considering changes in the industry structure. In the U.S., rising gasoline prices are driving demand for HEVs and compact cars. This is a tailwind for Japanese manufacturers, but at the same time, demand for BEVs is expanding again in Europe and other regions. It is also important to confirm that BEVs are a growing market.

Nomura DS Corporation will participate in the "Oume Open Factory 2026" held in Oume City. The Oume Open Factory is a four-day limited "on-site experience event" where manufacturing companies in Oume City open their factories to the public. Our company plans to showcase CNC automatic lathes and factory tours, as well as the recently highlighted robot for post-processing efficiency, the "N-ROBO." The "N-ROBO" is a device that uses a small robot to prevent damage to workpieces processed (cut) by NC automatic lathes and conducts various inspections (overall length, outer diameter, inner diameter), serving as a labor-saving robot to address labor shortages. Since it is not often that one can experience seeing large machines and robots, we encourage you to take this opportunity to participate in the "Oume Open Factory 2026 at Nomura DS Corporation." We look forward to your visit. Our event will take place only on Friday, November 6th. Please come dressed in clothes that can get dirty. We have parking available, but if it is full, please use nearby coin parking.
