Notice Regarding the Listing of Sony Financial Group Inc.
on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime Market

 

Today, the shares of common stock of Sony Financial Group Inc. (“SFGI,” and such shares of common stock of SFGI, “SFGI share(s)”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sony Group Corporation (“Sony”), which operates the Financial Services business, were listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (“TSE”) Prime Market.

 

As disclosed in the announcement entitled “Notice Regarding Approval for the Listing of Sony Financial Group Inc. from the Tokyo Stock Exchange” on September 8, 2025, the listing of SFGI shares on the TSE is a condition for the execution of the partial spin-off (the “Spin-off”) of SFGI. Following today’s listing, the Spin-off will be executed as planned on October 1, 2025. After the execution of the Spin-off, it is expected that Sony will hold slightly less than 20% of SFGI shares and SFGI will no longer be a consolidated subsidiary of Sony, but will become an affiliate of Sony accounted for using the equity method.
