Tohokushinsha Film (2329 JP): Potential Scenarios as 3D Lobs a Privatisation Proposal

By Arun George

  • On 24 July, 3D Investment Partners proposed to privatise Tohokushinsha Film (2329 JP) through a tender offer at JPY600-650 per share. A special committee will evaluate the proposal. 
  • 3D’s privatisation plan, in its current terms, is a non-starter as the price is low, and its activism campaign has so far been met with the Board’s scepticism.
  • The possible scenarios are that a white knight emerges to buy 3D’s stake/launch a counteroffer, 3D bumps the offer price, or the Board introduces a more ambitious MTM plan.

What Investors and Companies Should Do to Make Engagement More Effective ….

By Aki Matsumoto

  • The high percentage of foreign ownership is a characteristic of companies that have improved capital profitability and increased valuations, which is effective for overseas investor engagement.
  • If the system is revised to help collaborative engagement and the identification of substantial shareholders, some of the challenges will be eliminated for both investors and the company.
  • To make the engagement more effective, investors should increase active funds and companies should decrease cross-shareholdings.
