Share buybacks, offerings, activist stakes, shareholder votes and board changes at Japanese companies.
The company says the May authorization is complete after repurchasing 1,869,600 shares for JPY 999,990,100 as of June 3, essentially exhausting the JPY 1 billion cash cap while staying below the 2.5 million-share ceiling. That turns an authorization into executed capital return, even if it says nothing yet about another round.
Shareholders approved a charter change lifting maximum issuable shares to 13,259,600 from 12,760,000 and elected three directors. That expands the ceiling, not a separately announced financing plan.
The company repurchased 1,276,000 shares for ¥275,253,000 in May, taking the running total under the programme to 2,618,000 shares and ¥591,344,100 against a ceiling of 4,100,000 shares and ¥820,000,000. The same day it said it plans to buy 945 TIGEREYE shares, equal to 21.0% of voting rights, in July, but the acquisition price and other terms are still due to be fixed in June.
The company plans to cut stated capital by ¥913,212,790 to ¥426,759,789, then move the same amount through capital surplus into retained earnings to wipe out its carried-forward deficit. Shareholder approval is slated for June 24, with August 11 targeted for effect.
YCP Japan plans to bid for 1.2 million JDRs at ¥801 each in the May 28 ToSTNeT-2 closing auction, with results due after the session. The order can be only partly filled, and the company’s broader authorization still has room left if this batch does not get done.
G-INC HD will ask shareholders on June 29 to approve a shift in fiscal year-end from March 31 to May 31. If approved, the first year under the new timetable will run 14 months, from April 1, 2026 to May 31, 2027, and dividend and meeting record dates would move with it.
