SK JAPAN CO.,LTD. [7608.T]
TOKYO, Jan 14 (Pulse News Wire) -- SK Japan Co., Ltd. (7608.T), led by President and CEO Hachiman Hideo, announced today that its board of directors has approved a share split and corresponding amendments to the company's articles of incorporation. The decision was made during a meeting held on January 14, 2026.
The primary objective of this share split is to reduce the investment unit price per share, making it more accessible for investors and thereby enhancing liquidity while expanding the investor base further. Under the plan, shareholders will receive two shares for every one share they currently hold as of February 27, 2026, which is the actual effective date despite the official record date being set for February 28, 2026, due to the stock registrar’s holiday schedule. This action will increase the total number of outstanding shares from 8,490,103 to 16,980,206, with the maximum issuance limit remaining unchanged at 40 million shares.
Regarding the timeline, SK Japan plans to announce the formal notice of the share split on February 12, 2026. The changes to the articles of incorporation will take effect on March 1, 2026, following approval by the board of directors on January 14, 2026. Specifically, Article Six of the company's articles of incorporation will be amended to reflect an increased authorized share capital from 20 million to 40 million shares.
In addition, the company clarified that the upcoming fiscal year-end dividend payment scheduled for February 28, 2026, will be based on the pre-split share count.
