Yamaha announced its next-generation drum hardware lineup, featuring three all-new products and significant upgrades across its range, from lightweight entry-level options to heavyweight professional-grade series. These models deliver greater setup versatility, enhanced tonal performance and the reliability trusted by drummers worldwide. The next-generation lineup includes six updated snare stand models (SS9WR, SS8W, SS7, SS6W, SS6 and SS62), eight upgraded cymbal and hardware models (CS8W, CS7, CS6W, CS6T, CS6, CBW8, CH8 and CH8S), and three new additions: the SS7S Low-Positioned Snare Stand, QRN8 Quick Release Nut and SECW8 Sound Enhancement Cymbal Washer. The new SS9WR Snare Stand features the Yamaha-exclusive Flip Grip™ Basket, a first-of-its-kind design that quickly accommodates drums and percussion instruments from 10" to 14" in diameter while maintaining optimal stability. Additional innovations across the lineup include a Step-Free Tilter for smooth, precise angle adjustment, an ergonomic Snare Basket Adjustment Knob for effortless setup and secure positioning, and newly developed Tone-Enhancing Basket Rubber that helps preserve natural drum resonance by minimizing unwanted vibration transfer between the instrument and stand. Other upgrades throughout the range improve setup flexibility, playing freedom and tonal control through features such as ball-clamp tilters, the QRN8 Quick Release Nut and the SECW8 Sound Enhancement Cymbal Washer. Built on the brand's reputation for quality and durability, the new hardware lineup is designed for a wide range of players, from emerging drummers and regular gigging musicians to touring professionals who demand dependable performance night after night. Continuing the tradition of industry-leading hardware innovation, the lineup combines proven reliability with practical enhancements that deliver greater setup versatility, tonal control and ease of operation. Distinctive blue accents throughout the lineup serve as a subtle nod to Yamaha Motorsports, whose expertise helped inform the development of select hardware products. The new drum hardware lineup is now available through authorized Yamaha dealers nationwide.

Yamaha Corporation announced that the collective proceedings filed by Elisabetta Sciallis as Proposed Class Representative (“PCR”) against the Company and its subsidiary, Yamaha Music Europe GmbH (located in Rellingen, Germany; represented by Marco Papini; hereinafter “YME”), have been concluded following the granting of the PCR's application to withdraw the proceedings. As previously announced in the notice dated January 10, 2023, titled “Notice Regarding the Filing of Lawsuit Seeking Compensation for Damages Against the Company and Its Subsidiary,” the Company and YME had been named as defendants in a collective proceedings claim filed by a group of claimants proposed to be represented by Elisabetta Sciallis of the UK consumer organization Which? (London, United Kingdom). YME was subject to a UK competition law decision finding that it had engaged in resale price maintenance practices with one UK business partner in connection with the online sale of the Company’s digital piano, digital keyboard and guitar products in the UK from March 2013 to March 2017. In September 2022, a collective proceedings claim was filed alleging that consumers had paid higher prices for the Company's musical instrument products and seeking compensation for the resulting damages. On July 13, 2026, the UK Competition Appeal Tribunal gave judgment and issued an order dismissing the proceedings. The group of plaintiffs consisted of UK consumers who purchased the relevant musical instrument products and was proposed to be represented by Elisabetta Sciallis of the consumer organization Which?. The impact of the dismissal and conclusion of these proceedings on the Company’s consolidated financial results for the current fiscal year is expected to be immaterial.
