The June 25 vote confirmed a nine-member board slate, including president Akitoshi Ichii, but the source text available here stops short of a readable vote breakdown.
A ¥577.9mn payout took effect on June 26 after shareholders approved a ¥92-a-share year-end dividend and elected six directors plus four Audit & Supervisory Committee directors.
The vote passed the authorized-share increase, share consolidation, share-unit rule changes and six-director slate behind a capital restructuring whose October and November milestones remain provisional pending competition, foreign-investment and Foreign Subsidies Regulation procedures.
Its paid stock-option plan for directors and selected staff covers potential dilution of 2.82% of shares outstanding and cannot be exercised unless the stock closes at ¥7,500 or higher at least once. A separate tax-qualified employee plan carries its own 6.22% dilution ceiling.
It will allot 39,770 treasury shares worth ¥130.6mn, with 34,070 shares going to 895 employees and 5,700 to directors and executive officers. That makes this more workforce alignment than executive garnish.
Shareholders approved continuation of the company's countermeasures against large-scale share purchases through the close of the June 2029 AGM. The filing does not identify any live bidder or spell out the mechanics of the partial revision.
The company will replace a ¥1.13bn syndicated facility due June 30 with a ¥2.3bn MUFG Bank borrowing that runs only until Oct. 31. Both facilities use securities held by the representative director's asset-management company as collateral, so the maturity wall has moved, not disappeared.
Toyo Kanetsu approved a buyback of up to 900,000 shares, equal to 5.8% of shares outstanding excluding treasury stock, with spending capped at ¥2.0bn. The programme runs from July 1 to Sept. 18 through market purchases under a discretionary trading contract, which is clear enough even if the company is not obliged to use the full amount.
The company says shareholder Toshimori Mae's demand would breach its seven-director cap, citing a June 10 Tokyo District Court decision that it says left the incumbent seven directors in office. The annual meeting is set for June 29.
The company canceled 6,250,000 common shares on June 1, leaving 285,993,496 shares outstanding after the transaction. The notice closes a previously approved step under an April 30 board resolution; it is a capital-structure update, not a fresh buyback plan.
