Notice Relating to Delisting Schedule from the New York Stock Exchange
This is to advise you that Kyocera Corporation (the Company) has notified the New York Stock Exchange (the
NYSE) on June 5, 2018 (Eastern Time in the U.S.) that it will make an application for voluntary delisting of the Companys American Depositary Shares (ADSs) from the NYSE, in connection with its announcement on
February 26, 2018 relating to its intention of delisting from the NYSE. The Companys future plans regarding delisting are as follows.
1.
|
Reasons for Applying for Delisting
|
The Company issued its ADSs in February 1976 and listed its
ADSs on the NYSE in May 1980 mainly to promote trading of its shares and to raise the visibility of the Companys brand in the U.S. Since then, the Company has made efforts to enhance disclosures for shareholders and investors to deepen their
understanding of the Company, in addition to complying with the disclosure requirements of U.S. securities laws and regulations, providing consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States (U.S. GAAP), and establishing internal controls in accordance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
Meanwhile, the
external environment has significantly changed as indicated by the increases in trading volume of Japanese stocks through stock exchanges in Japan by overseas investors due to the internationalization of the Japanese financial and capital markets,
as well as the narrowing of the gap between U.S. and Japanese disclosure standards with respect to financial reporting due to a series of amendments to Japanese laws and regulations and accounting standards.
In addition to these changes to the environment, as the trading volume of the Companys ADSs on the NYSE has been on a decreasing trend
in recent years, the Company believes that the economic rationality of maintaining a listing on the NYSE has declined.
Therefore, the
Company decided to apply for voluntary delisting of its ADSs from the NYSE and for termination of registration of its ADSs with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act).

The Company provided the NYSE with a written
pre-notice
of the delisting application
|

|
|
|
September 2018
|
|
Deregistration with the SEC to become effective
Termination of the Companys reporting obligations under the Exchange Act to become effective
|
The schedule provided above may be delayed if the SEC objects or requests an extended review or for other
reasons.
While the Companys reporting obligations under the Exchange Act
(including the obligation to file annual reports on Form
20-F)
will be terminated, the Company will continue to disclose financial statements and other information, in English, on its website to ensure that
its shareholders and investors will continue to have appropriate information about the Company.
In addition, after the delisting of its
ADSs from the NYSE, the Company intends to maintain its American Depositary Receipt Program in the U.S. and therefore anticipates that its ADSs will continue to be traded in the U.S. on the
over-the-counter
market.
