briefing after the close: Management commented that at the start of the fiscal JPMorgan Securities Japan Co., Ltd.

year, 13 investees were expected to contribute substantially to FY2026

earnings. Of the 13, five are in the semiconductor business, two in fintech, and

one each in AI, energy, defense, digital assets, quantum technology, and

cybersecurity. Five are based in North America, four in Europe, two in Asia,

and one each in Japan and the Middle East. Six generated profits in 1Q. The

remaining seven are expected to do so in 2Q onward, with high probabilities

FY2027.
