On May 28, 2026, Mizuho Financial Group, Inc. announced that it had previously received a joint shareholder proposal from two shareholders for the agenda of its 24th Annual General Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for June 26, 2026. The proposal, titled "Partial Amendment of the Articles of Incorporation (Consolidated Risk of Orient Corporation)," was withdrawn following a written notice dated May 27, 2026 from the proposing shareholders. The reason for withdrawal, as quoted from the written notice, was that the shareholding ratio of Orient Corporation shares by Mizuho Bank had decreased, resulting in a significant change in the premise of the shareholder proposal. At the Board of Directors meeting held on May 28, 2026, Mizuho Financial Group agreed to the withdrawal and resolved to partially amend the matters to be submitted at the General Meeting.

Mizuho Financial Group, Inc. announced in its press release dated May 15, 2026, entitled “Opinion of Mizuho’s Board of Directors on Shareholder Proposal,” that it had received a shareholder proposal regarding the agenda of its 24th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders scheduled to be held on June 26, 2026, and also announced in the press release the opinion of its Board of Directors on the Shareholder Proposal. However, Mizuho has subsequently received from the proposing shareholders a document dated May 27, 2026 to the effect that they are withdrawing the Shareholder Proposal. Mizuho hereby announces that, at its Board of Directors meeting held May 28, 2026, it has resolved to consent to the withdrawal of the Shareholder Proposal and to partially amend the matters to be resolved at the General Meeting of Shareholders. The agenda item related to the withdrawn shareholder proposal was a partial amendment to the Articles of Incorporation (Risks associated with the consolidation of Orient Corporation). The reason for withdrawal was that in a timely disclosure issued by Orient Corporation on May 15, 2026, it was confirmed that the shareholding ratio by Mizuho Bank Ltd. in Orient Corporation has decreased, and in light of this, it was determined that there has been a significant change in the basis for the shareholder proposal, and therefore the shareholder proposal was withdrawn. The proposal titled “Proposal 2: Partial amendment to the Articles of Incorporation (Risks associated with the consolidation of Orient Corporation)” has been withdrawn.

Mizuho Financial Group, Inc. (President & CEO: Masahiro Kihara) has received a document stating shareholders' intentions to exercise their proposal rights. Mizuho hereby announces that, at its Board of Directors meeting held on May 15, 2026, it has resolved to oppose the shareholder proposal. Regarding the agenda of the 24 Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders scheduled to be held on June 26, 2026, the shareholder proposal is a partial amendment to the Articles of Incorporation (Risks associated with the consolidation of Orient Corporation). The proposal aims to prepare for a situation in which Orient Corporation (Orico), which is currently recognized as an equity-method affiliate of Mizuho Financial Group, becomes a consolidated subsidiary of Mizuho Financial Group regardless of its wishes and as a result of, for example, Orico's acquisition of its treasury stock and aims to establish the following new chapter and article in the current Articles of Incorporation to require the estimation and disclosure of the values of key indicators, such as the amount of risk-weighted assets (RWA) under the Basel regulatory framework, in the event that Orico actually becomes a consolidated subsidiary of Mizuho Financial Group. CHAPTER IX: Risks associated with the consolidation of Orient Corporation Article 50. (Estimation and Disclosure of the Risks Associated with any Unintended Changes in the Scope of the Consolidation) The Company shall estimate, at least once per fiscal year, the impact on the amount of risk-weighted assets (hereinafter referred to as RWA) under the Basel regulatory framework and each item of other key indicators (referring to KM1: Key Metrics (Consolidated Bank and Holding Company) as defined in Appended Form No. 10 of Financial Services Agency Public Notice No. 7 of 2014) in the event that Orient Corporation becomes a consolidated subsidiary of the Company and shall disclose the assumptions underlying such estimates and a summary of the results in its Corporate Governance Report covering the relevant fiscal year. The reason for the proposal is that Mizuho Financial Group indirectly holds approximately 48% of Orico's voting rights; therefore, Orico could become a consolidated subsidiary of Mizuho Financial Group regardless of its wishes due to actions such as Orico's acquisition of its treasury stock. In addition, given the fact that, for example, all nine presidents of Orico to the present have come from the Mizuho group since 1983, it may be assessed that Mizuho Financial Group controls Orico, which could result in the equity method being disallowed. However, at present, the RWA reflect only a slight risk associated with the holding and trading of shares in Orico. If Orico, a non-bank financial institution, becomes a consolidated subsidiary of Mizuho Financial Group, the RWA would increase by an estimated JPY 3 trillion. Since the Basel regulatory framework requires financial institutions to set aside capital to prepare for unexpected risks, the RWA, a cornerstone of the framework, should reflect the foreseeable risks associated with Orico's consolidation and disclose information thereon. Furthermore, this disclosure is expected to serve as an opportunity for Mizuho Financial Group to recognize these distortions and resolve the current distorted situation by either making Orico a wholly-owned subsidiary or selling all of its shares in Orico.

On May 15, 2026, Mizuho Financial Group, Inc. announced that its Board of Directors resolved to oppose a shareholder proposal submitted jointly by Strategic Capital and another shareholder for the 24th Annual General Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for June 26, 2026. The shareholder proposal, titled "Partial Amendment of the Articles of Incorporation (Consolidation Risk of Orient Corporation)," seeks to require the company to calculate and disclose, at least once per fiscal year, the impact on key indicators such as Risk-Weighted Assets (RWA) under Basel regulations if Orient Corporation, currently an equity-method affiliate, becomes a consolidated subsidiary. The Board opposes this proposal, stating that disclosure based on uncertain assumptions may create confusion among shareholders and investors, and that the Articles of Incorporation are intended to stipulate basic matters for company operation, not individual and concrete matters such as hypothetical calculations or disclosures related to a particular affiliate. The Board further explains that its consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards and audited by independent auditors, and that the determination of consolidation scope is strictly made in accordance with relevant accounting standards. The Board also highlights the inappropriateness of disclosure based on hypothetical calculations under Basel regulations and emphasizes the independence of Orient Corporation’s management. The Board concludes that the content of the proposal exceeds the general scope of the Articles of Incorporation and is therefore inappropriate to include. The shareholders’ rationale for the proposal is that Orient Corporation, with about 48% of voting rights indirectly held by Mizuho, may become a consolidated subsidiary due to actions such as share buybacks, and that the risk of such consolidation should be reflected and disclosed in the company’s RWA as required by Basel regulations. The shareholders expect the company to resolve this distortion by either fully acquiring Orient Corporation or selling all shares.
