TOKYO, Jun 10 (Pulse News Wire) – Pluszero,inc. (5132.T) resolved today to repurchase and cancel all 184,500 stock options issued on December 24, 2025, to its directors, executive officers, and employees.
The buyback was agreed upon due to differing valuation methods used by independent experts and the company's valuation agency. The stock options were initially valued at ¥112 per option based on a third-party valuation report. However, subsequent evaluations by external specialists commissioned by the company’s auditing firm resulted in different valuations, primarily stemming from discrepancies in how certain conditions, such as forced exercise clauses, were assessed through Monte Carlo simulations.
Given these differences, Pluszero concluded that continuing to hold the stock options was inappropriate. As a result, the company decided to repurchase the options at ¥112 per option, totaling ¥20.7 million, and immediately cancel them on June 11, 2026. This buyback and cancellation are expected to have a minor impact on the company's performance, as the transaction will be settled at the initial issuance price paid by the recipients.
