TSE:9064
Yamato Holdings will shut the dedicated domestic cargo-plane operation it built with Japan Airlines by around June 2027, after yen weakness and fuel costs pushed air-transport costs up faster than trucking, widening the price gap between the two modes beyond what the company had assumed when it launched the service in 2024.
Nojima has taken a 70% stake in Yamato Holdings' consumer-credit arm, renamed it N Credit Finance, and put a new executive in the president's chair on day one, aiming to bolt the unit's payment and receivables tools onto its retail business.
Yamato Holdings' board has set up a six-member Corporate Value Enhancement Committee, five outside directors plus CEO Toshiyuki Sakurai as chairman, tasked with reviewing past investment decisions and drafting market-facing action plans outside the time and procedural limits of its normal board meetings.
