TOKYO, Feb 25 (Pulse News Wire) -- Fujikura Ltd. (5803.T), led by President and CEO Naoki Okada, has announced plans for a share split and corresponding amendments to its articles of incorporation. The company's board of directors made this decision during a meeting held today.
The primary goal of the share split is to reduce the per-share investment amount, making it easier for individual investors and others to invest, thereby expanding the investor base. The split will take place on March 31, 2026, with each ordinary share recorded in the final shareholder register as of that date being exchanged for six shares. As a result, the total number of outstanding shares after the split will increase from 295,863,421 to 1,775,180,526 shares. Additionally, the maximum number of issuable shares will be increased from 1.19 billion to 7 billion shares.
Key dates associated with the share split include an announcement date of March 16, 2026, a record date of March 31, 2026, and an effective date of April 1, 2026. Regarding dividends, since the split becomes effective on April 1, 2026, the year-end dividend for the fiscal year ending March 2026 will be paid based on pre-split shares. There will be no change to the capital stock amount due to this share split.
Furthermore, pursuant to Article 184, Paragraph 2 of the Companies Act, the company will amend its articles of incorporation to reflect these changes. Specifically, the current stipulation that the maximum number of issuable shares is 1.19 billion will be changed to 7 billion shares. This amendment will also become effective on April 1, 2026.
