Cross Cat will replace the physical QUO cards in its shareholder benefit programme with a choice of electronic gifts. Its September 17, 2026 disclosure sets the first new qualifying date at March 31, 2027, with distribution planned for June 2027.
The existing award values carry into the electronic format
The company says the award-value bands and eligibility criteria remain unchanged. Its published shareholder schedule assigns JPY500 to holders of 200-999 shares, JPY1,000 to those with 1,000-1,999 shares, JPY2,000 to those with 2,000-3,999 shares and JPY3,000 to holders of at least 4,000 shares.
Cross Cat retains its four shareholder award values
The issuer’s existing schedule specifies four yen amounts, and the September 17 disclosure says the amount bands and award criteria will not change.

These are contractual face values per qualifying distribution, not recipient counts or redemption results. The final electronic gift service and exchange conditions have not been announced.

| Category | Award face value |

| 200-999 shares | 500 JPY |
| 1,000-1,999 shares | 1,000 JPY |
| 2,000-3,999 shares | 2,000 JPY |
| 4,000 shares or more | 3,000 JPY |
The original calendar also continues, with the existing schedule specifying one copy for holders of at least 6,000 shares. That threshold is separate from the entry point for the gift award. The company’s standing programme page still describes QUO cards and the September record date; the dated September 17 disclosure establishes the transition to the new format.
The annual record date moves from September 30 to March 31, and the usual distribution month moves from December to June. The September 30, 2026 benefit will nevertheless proceed under the existing programme. The March 2027 electronic distribution follows that transitional award; the announcement does not cancel the September 2026 entitlement.
Amazon gift cards, PayPay Money Light and d points appear only as examples of intended exchange destinations. Cross Cat says it will announce the specific destinations and conditions after selecting the service. No provider, definitive catalogue, claim deadline or electronic gift expiry is established in the disclosure.
For recipients, the confirmed change concerns the format and timing of an unchanged face-value allowance. The source does not report how shareholders will divide their choices, whether more awards will be redeemed or whether administration will cost less. Those outcomes cannot be inferred from the planned move to electronic delivery.
