Entering the Residential Development Market in Vietnam First Property Acquisition Completed in Di An City, Binh Duong Province, Near Ho Chi Minh City

Cosmos Initia, a member of the Daiwa House Group, has formed a strategic partnership with TT Capital Investment Joint Stock Company, a local real estate developer in Vietnam, and Koterasu Partners Pte. Ltd., a global real estate company founded in Japan in 2020, to enter the residential development market in the Ho Chi Minh City area. Under this partnership, we have successfully acquired the first project in Di An City, Binh Duong Province, near Ho Chi Minh City.

Since our founding in 1974, our company has upheld the philosophy of "considering housing from the residents' perspective to provide a higher quality living environment," delivering over 100,000 residences, mainly in the Tokyo metropolitan area.
Aiming to further expand our residential development business, we are advancing our operations in Ho Chi Minh City and surrounding areas, a highly attractive market where we can expect growing housing demand driven by a high proportion of the working-age population and increased purchasing power supported by strong GDP growth. Leveraging the expertise we have cultivated over the years, we will continue to develop residential properties tailored to this dynamic market.

In the future, through this strategic partnership, we plans to provide 1,000 to 2,000 high-quality homes annually for the middle-income demographic in the Ho Chi Minh City area.
