Avex Inc. announced that its Board of Directors resolved at a meeting held on March 30, 2026 to establish special purpose companies (SPCs). The Company aims to grow the Avex Group into a global company in the world music market. In March 2025, the Company reorganized and integrated its U.S. business into its wholly-owned subsidiary, Avex Music Group LLC. Under the leadership of its CEO, Brandon Silverstein, the Company has been developing a wide range of music businesses in the U.S., including music publishing, artist management, label operations, and creative studio management. In the same year, S10 Entertainment & Media LLC (Headquarters: California, U.S.; Founder & CEO: Brandon Silverstein) became a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, and we have since been striving to further expand and strengthen our music business in the U.S. In the United States, the secondary market for music-related rights ("Music Catalogs") by music publishers, record labels, and institutional investors, such as investment funds, is becoming increasingly active. With the global expansion of the streaming market, the value of Music Catalogs is expected to continue to increase. Under these circumstances, as a player in the music business capable of maximizing the value of rights, the Company has decided to establish special purpose companies (SPCs) in the U.S. to fully leverage the entertainment industry network we have built primarily in the U.S., with the aim of strengthening our management and operation business for Music Catalogs in the U.S. and other overseas markets. Furthermore, as described in the "Notice Regarding the Execution of a Loan Agreement with Financial Covenants by a U.S. Consolidated Subsidiary" disclosed today, the entity acquiring the Music Catalogs plans to borrow the acquisition funds via a non-recourse loan from a local financial institution with extensive expertise in the music catalog business. This will enable the acquisition of large-scale Music Catalogs in the future by utilizing leverage while keeping interest costs to a certain level. In addition to the expectation of maximizing financial returns, this will also allow us to capture new deal opportunities for future additional acquisitions and divestitures. Through these initiatives, we will continue to strive to maximize our corporate value.
