TOKYO, May 25 (Pulse News Wire) – Nakayama Steel Works,ltd. (5408.T) extended its share acquisition rules through June 2029, contingent upon shareholder approval during its upcoming annual general meeting scheduled for May 25, 2026.
The rules aim to protect the company's value and shareholders' interests by ensuring adequate time for review and discussion of large-scale acquisitions.
