Five Hyuga Primary Care holders now report 59.01% as a bloc ahead of planned take-private

Five holders now report 59.01% of Hyuga Primary Care together, up from 28.56%, after joint holders were added around JG44's planned tender offer and squeeze-out; the filing lists no trades in the past 60 days.

Five blocks of different sizes merging into one tall bar crossed by a threshold line, illustrating joint shareholders reported as a single bloc.

Five holders around Hyuga Primary Care now report 59.01% of the company together, up from 28.56% in the previous report, after joint holders were added to a large-shareholding change report filed on 2 October 2026. The obligation date was 25 September, when the holders signed agreements tied to a tender offer by JG44. The stated reasons include a change in holding purpose, the added joint holders and a rise of at least one percentage point.

A reporting change, not new buying

The report covers five holders, counted together.

On the filing's own numbers, no holder's stake rose. The three filers' percentages slipped from 9.79%, 7.01% and 11.76%, while the two joint holders stayed at 18.64% and 12.36%. The 60-day acquisition and disposal tables are blank. The jump comes from counting the stakes together.

The agreed sequence

The first two filers, a medical-technology services company and a healthcare people-and-organisation matching firm, have agreed not to tender any shares into JG44's offer. If it succeeds, Hyuga Primary Care is to run a self-tender meant to equalise the combined holdings of the three filers with those of the two joint holders. In it, the first two filers would tender 133,780 shares (1.84%) and 191,569 shares (2.63%) and keep 565,820 (7.77%) and 308,831 (4.24%). The hospital-management-support filer would tender 321,579 shares (4.42%) and keep 518,421 (7.12%) under its own non-tender agreement.

If both offers succeed, a squeeze-out would leave JG44 and the five agreed shareholders as the only owners, with each filer agreeing to back the resolutions at a shareholders' meeting. A share exchange would follow, making JG44 the parent. A shareholders' agreement with the JGIA funds covers running the group and transfer restrictions. The report gives no tender price or timetable.
