Recruit (6098) Launches ANOTHER Big Buyback

By Travis Lundy

  • In January 2022, Recruit Holdings (6098 JP) launched a Tender Offer buyback to buy back shares from NTT Data, Hakuhodo, and TBS. 
  • Today, Recruit announced another buyback of up to 42mm shares (2.57% of shares out) spending up to ¥150bn, to go from now until 14 March 2023 (5mos).
  • This time the buyback should have better traction and market impact, but it is not overwhelming, and the impact will likely lessen at higher share prices.
