Remixpoint Signs Basic Agreement for Strategic Partnership with JAIC

Remixpoint Co., Ltd. (Securities Code: 3825, Head Office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Yuhiko Takahashi; hereinafter "the Company") has today announced the signing of a basic agreement on a strategic partnership with Japan Asia Investment Co., Ltd. (Securities Code: 8518, Head Office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President, Executive Officer, and CEO: Toshihiko Maruyama; hereinafter "JAIC") to launch and operate DEEPPOINT, an information media platform specialized in deep tech, and to create future business opportunities.

This agreement aims to link the Company’s initiative to build a "Deep Tech Growth Platform"—connecting technology, enterprises, and investors through DEEPPOINT—with JAIC’s investment track record, domestic and international networks, and expertise in business support. Additionally, both companies will discuss collaboration in the field of grid-scale battery storage, a growth area for both parties, including introducing high-quality projects and potential business partners, as well as creating opportunities for engagement between investors and operating companies.

Background of the Collaboration

Deep tech is attracting attention as a critical field that will underpin future society and industry, encompassing areas such as AI, semiconductors, quantum technology, space, nuclear fusion, and robotics. However, even companies with advanced technological capabilities often face challenges in areas such as social implementation, fundraising, partnerships with established companies, and overseas expansion.

To address these challenges, the Company positions DEEPPOINT not merely as an information media platform, but as a nexus connecting outstanding technologies, enterprises, and investors. By raising awareness through information dissemination and creating connections with promising technologies and companies, the Company aims to generate new opportunities leading to joint ventures, investments, M&A, and business partnerships.

Furthermore, the Company views grid-scale battery storage as one of its key medium- to long-term growth areas. Access to high-quality project information, development and operation partners, and networks of financial institutions and investors is considered essential for business expansion. JAIC possesses extensive networks through its domestic and international investment and business support activities, which the Company believes aligns closely with its growth strategy, leading to the signing of this basic agreement.

Key Areas of Collaboration

- Discovery and dissemination of promising companies and technologies in the deep tech field through DEEPPOINT - Promotion of matching and co-creation between corporations, investors, research institutions, and startups - Information sharing and discussions on fundraising support, investment, M&A, and business partnerships for promising companies - Introduction and exploration of collaboration opportunities in grid-scale battery storage, including high-quality projects, development and operation partners, investors, and financial institutions - Exploration of business opportunities in growth areas aligned with the Company’s existing and new businesses

Future Outlook

Moving forward, the two companies will advance discussions on identifying promising companies and technologies in the deep tech field, matching with corporations, fundraising support, and business co-creation, using information dissemination through DEEPPOINT as a starting point. In the field of grid-scale battery storage, they will also explore concrete collaboration opportunities by introducing high-quality projects and potential partners that contribute to both companies’ business growth.

The Company aims to enhance long-term corporate value by focusing on real demand, profitability, and risk management, rather than short-term trends, in the fields of energy solutions, digital assets, and deep tech. The Company will continue to communicate progress and outcomes appropriately and fairly to all stakeholders.

* The impact of initiatives under this basic agreement on the consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ending March 2027 is expected to be minimal. The Company will promptly disclose any material developments as they arise.

* This agreement does not guarantee the conclusion of specific projects or investment execution at this stage.
