Nomura Determines to Make Disposition of Treasury Shares as Stock Award Tokyo, January 16, 2026-Nomura Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") today announced that its Executive Management Board has determined to make a disposition of treasury stock as outlined below (the "Decision").

1. Purpose of Disposition of Treasury Stock

   The Company has determined to grant Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) based on the RSU plan (the "RSU Plan") for directors, executive officers, and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries as deferred compensation using the Company's treasury stock.

   Under the RSU Plan, in principle, after the expiration of a deferral period determined beforehand by the Company, the Company will dispose of and allot treasury stock in a number corresponding to the number of RSUs granted to each allottee which number is determined beforehand by the Company, by having the allottees make a contribution in kind to the Company of monetary compensation claims granted to the allottees.

   The allotment date for the disposition of treasury stock for RSUs under the Decision corresponds to the above-mentioned deferral period is generally a date that is approximately one to four years from the date of the Decision.

2. Number of Shares to be Allotted and Allottees 1

   	Directors, Executive Officers, and Employees of the Company's Subsidiaries, etc.
   	Number of Allottees	Number of Shares to be Allotted
   RSU No.57	220	2,221,816
   RSU No.58	204	1,660,632
   RSU No.59	189	619,176
   RSU No.60	5	25,089

   RSU No.62	149	579,330
   RSU No.63	149	579,256

   ‌1The number of shares to be allotted above is based on the assumption that all monetary compensation claims to be granted to the allottees in accordance with the RSU Plan are contributed. The actual amount of monetary compensation claims to be contributed in kind will be calculated by deducting a certain amount to be granted in cash, the amount of which will be determined in consideration of withholding to be made by the Company with respect to the RSU Plan based on each country's tax regulations, from the amount of

   such monetary compensation claims, and hence the number of shares to be actually allotted is expected to decrease from the above numbers.
