Ricoh Japan Co., Ltd. (President and CEO: Toru Kasai) will strengthen its one-stop provision system to contribute to the realization of DX in the medical and nursing care fields, against the backdrop of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's "National Medical Information Platform Concept" and "Reiwa Vision 2030." Specifically for medical DX, we will expand our lineup of products and services, including sales and maintenance support for the successor product to the "Facial Recognition Card Reader Caora," dedicated terminals, IT infrastructure, and services to improve operational efficiency. The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare has set forth the "National Medical Information Platform Concept" and "Reiwa Vision 2030," and is promoting measures such as the expansion of the online eligibility verification system, electronic prescriptions, and standardization of electronic medical records. These initiatives are not limited to the medical field but are also extending to the nursing care field through the development of a "Nursing Care Information Infrastructure," leading to information linkage between medical and nursing care (medical-welfare collaboration). However, medical and nursing care sites face challenges such as a shortage of dedicated IT personnel and the increasing sophistication of security measures, which are barriers to achieving DX. In response to this situation, Ricoh Japan will accelerate its contribution to local communities by expanding its lineup of services that support DX in medical and nursing care settings. Specifically, Ricoh Japan will begin sales and maintenance support for "Caora2," the successor product to the "Facial Recognition Card Reader Caora" provided by group company PFU Limited, starting in October 2026. In addition, we will also sell dedicated terminals developed by Ricoh PFU Computing Co., Ltd., another group company. Ricoh Japan has provided installation and maintenance for dedicated terminals since the Ministry of Health
