ACSL Ltd. announced that on August 8, 2023, ACSL Inc., U.S. subsidiary, entered a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Conket2 Inc., DBA C2 Group (C2 Group), for a strategic partnership to provide sales, support, repair, and service assistance for ACSL products in the U.S. market. The two companies will cooperate in sales promotion and market development and aim to sell 50 drones by the end of 2024, mainly to infrastructure companies and inspection businesses. ACSL has decided to postpone the disclosure of earnings forecasts for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 although net sales in Japan are expected to be at least at the same level as the previous fiscal year, the company has determined that it is difficult at this point in time to appropriately and reasonably calculate figures for net sales overseas.

As for the impact of the above MOU on ACSL's business performance, believe that it will contribute to sales, as it aim to sell to 50 drones by 2024. However, the actual number of drones to be sold has not yet been determined, and the impact on business performance is undetermined. ACSL is currently examining other factors and will promptly disclose the earnings forecast it becomes possible to do.
