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.
