SONY GROUP CORPORATION (Registrant) By: /s/ Lin Tao   (Signature) Lin Tao Chief Financial Officer Date: September 8, 2025 List of Materials Documents attached hereto: Notice Regarding Approval for the Listing of Sony Financial Group Inc. from the Tokyo Stock Exchange September 8, 2025 Sony Group Corporation Notice Regarding Approval for the Listing of Sony Financial Group Inc. from the Tokyo Stock Exchange As disclosed in the announcement entitled “Resolution for Execution of Partial Spin-off of Financial Services Business” on September 3, 2025, Sony Group Corporation (“Sony”) resolved at a meeting of Sony’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on the same date to execute a partial spin-off (the “Spin-off”) of Sony Financial Group Inc. (“SFGI”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sony, which operates the Financial Services business, effective October 1, 2025. The execution of the Spin-off is subject to the condition that approval for the listing of the shares of common stock of SFGI (“SFGI share(s)”) is obtained from the Tokyo Stock Exchange (“TSE”), and such approval is not revoked. Today, the approval for the listing of SFGI shares on the TSE Prime Market was granted by the TSE. 1. Expected schedule for dividends in kind and listing of SFGI shares Date Description Friday, September 26, 2025 Last trading date with dividend rights of common stock of Sony (“Sony share(s)”) Monday, September 29, 2025 Ex-dividend date of Sony shares Scheduled listing date of SFGI shares on the TSE (Date from which SFGI shares subject to distribution will become tradable on the TSE) (Note 1) Tuesday, September 30, 2025 Record date of dividends in kind Wednesday, October 1, 2025 Effective date / distribution date of dividends in kind (Note) 1. In response to the TSE’s revisions to the initial listing day in the case of spin-offs, the listing date for SFGI shares is expected to be September 29, 2025, the ex-dividend date of Sony shares, and SFGI shares are expected to be tradable on the TSE on and after such listing date, prior to the above-mentioned distribution on October 1, 2025. For holders of American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) of Sony shares (“Sony ADRs”) as of the distribution record date for Sony ADRs on September 29, 2025 (Eastern Time), as determined by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”), the depositary for Sony ADRs, Sony understands from JPMorgan that the SFGI shares that JPMorgan will receive as a result of the Spin-off are expected to be distributed in the form of ADRs of SFGI shares (“SFGI ADRs”) to holders of Sony ADRs under an unsponsored SFGI ADR program which is to be newly established by JPMorgan. * SFGI ADRs will be issued under an unsponsored ADR program to be established and administered by JPMorgan independently (other depositaries may also independently establish unsponsored ADR programs in the future), without any involvement from Sony or SFGI. Because SFGI ADRs are not expected to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange or other U.S. securities exchanges, SFGI ADRs will be tradable only on the over-the-counter market in the U.S. 1 2. Share price formation of SFGI shares on the listing date As disclosed in the announcement entitled “Update Regarding Partial Spin-off of Financial Services Business” on May 14, 2025, the initial price of SFGI shares on the listing date will be determined according to the actual supply and demand from investors for SFGI shares, within a range that incorporates the regular renewal price interval applied to the upper and lower price limits of the matching mechanism. The price limits of the matching mechanism will be defined based on the first center price on the trading board on the listing date. Because SFGI shares will be listed through the direct listing method in the Spin-off, the first center price on the trading board will be determined by the TSE based on the reference price to be submitted by Nomura Securities Co., Ltd., as the listing sponsor
