Chilled &amp; Frozen Logistics Holdings (9099 JP) was near an all-time high in late March when it closed at ¥2,041 the day AZ-Com Maruwa Holdings (9090 JP) bid ¥3,000/share.
That was hostile, and C&amp;F's Board reacted swiftly, looking for a market check and competitive process. It got one. It was VERY successful in getting the best bid. 

SG Holdings (9143 JP) has bid ¥5,740 - a very full multiple and 91% higher than AZ-Com's price. I don't expect an overbidder. Huge governance win for Japan minorities.
