TOKYO, Jun 10 (Pulse News Wire) – JALCO Holdings Inc. (6625.T) announced today that its subsidiary, JALCO Asset Management Co., Ltd., has decided to halt preparations for forming a private real estate investment trust (REIT).
The decision was made during a board meeting held . Additionally, the company has appointed new executives for JALCO Asset Management, pending approval at the scheduled shareholders' meeting on June 20, 2026. In light of recent market conditions, JALCO Holdings determined that forming a private REIT would require more rigorous scrutiny of profitability and capital efficiency compared to alternative funding methods such as anonymous partnerships, special purpose companies, trusts, funds, and project financing. Furthermore, the time, costs, and resources needed to obtain necessary permits and maintain regulatory compliance outweighed the benefits of continuing the preparation process. As part of the restructuring, JALCO Holdings named several key executives for JALCO Asset Management, including appointing Noriichi Tanabe as the new representative director.
Other changes include the appointment of Tetsuya Iwami as a new director and Yoshiro Sakurai retaining his position as a director. JALCO Asset Management's operations will now focus on property management and operational support services. The company’s capital remains at ¥200 million. The firm's fiscal year-end is set for March 31. Looking ahead, JALCO Holdings expects the impact on its consolidated performance for the fiscal year ending March 2027 to be minimal due to the cessation of anticipated operating fees and other revenues associated with the halted REIT formation.
However, the company reserves the right to reconsider similar initiatives based on future economic conditions and strategic assessments.
