Updated Tool (30Apr24) & “Diff File Generator” For TSE “Mgmt Conscious of Capital Cost/Stock Price”
- In mid-January, the TSE announced a “name-and-shame” list where they listed all the companies which had put forth a disclosure about 【資本コストや株価を意識した経営の実現に向けた対応】. But they did not actually shame.
- The list shows which companies have disclosed a policy/consideration. But no data/links. We are weeks ahead of the TSE and we have all the links.
- We created a tool to name everyone, show their reports, provide links to every document, and now a new tool. Put in a name, see the difference between the Old/New Reports.
The Raising of Listing Criteria in the Growth Market Will Lead to Increased Investment Opportunities
- Criteria for IPOs aren’t a major issue. TSE is concerned that many companies will be in jeopardy of being delisted if the criteria for maintaining listing are raised.
- TSE will likely make “request” to Growth Market listed companies to increase their market capitalization if the criteria for maintaining listing are not raised.
- From 2025, delisting and subsequent re-listing through M&A and MBOs is expected to increase, which will lead to more investment opportunities.
