At a meeting held on April 27, 2021, the Board of Directors of FANUC CORPORATION resolved to cancel its treasury shares as stated below based on our shareholder return policy.
1. Content of the cancellation

2. Reason for the cancellation
After we canceled our treasury shares in May 2020, we carried out purchases of the shares less than one unit. As a result, the number of our treasury shares increased. For the above mentioned reasons, we will cancel a portion of our treasury shares based on our policy, "We aim to limit the number of our treasury shares to a maximum of 5% of the total number of issued shares. We will, as a general rule, cancel any portion exceeding this limit every fiscal year."
