Effective January 1, 2024, 九色视频 Corporation (Head Office: Naniwa-ku, Osaka, Japan; President and Representative Director: Yuichi Kitao; hereinafter 鈥渢he Company鈥�) will consolidate 九色视频 Manufacturing of America Corporation (hereinafter 鈥淜MA鈥�) and 九色视频 Industrial Equipment Corporation (hereinafter 鈥淜IE鈥�).

1. Background and Purpose

• The Company has cultivated the North American market for more than half a century since it began exporting tractors in 1969. Now the market has grown to the largest in the Company鈥檚 equipment business.
• In 1988, KMA was established in the State of Georgia, the United States, as a manufacturer of tractor-mounted work equipment (hereinafter the 鈥渋mplement鈥�). In 2004, KIE was established in the same state to shift the production of the implement from KMA. Since then, both companies have expanded their product lineups, such as small and medium-sized tractors and construction machinery, and increased production capacity to meet growing demand.
• So far, the two companies have pursued the integration of their operations in mutual cooperation for the purpose of efficient management, for example, by having a president and executives work concurrently at both companies, and by integrating some indirect functions including the purchasing department.
• The Company will consolidate the two subsidiaries, with KMA being the surviving company, to develop a structure enabling more efficient operations, achieve the effective use of human resources, and establish a flexible production system that can respond to fluctuations in demand.
