TOKYO, May 12 (Pulse News Wire) – Tokyu Corporation (9005.T) resolved at its board meeting held on May 12 to propose amendments to its articles of incorporation at its 157th regular shareholders' meeting scheduled for June 26, 2026. Additionally, the company plans to register the issuance of its first convertible bond shares.
The proposed changes aim to enhance capital efficiency while protecting existing ordinary shareholders’ interests. The hybrid design of the convertible bond shares includes fixed dividend payments for five years followed by variable rates, without granting voting rights or conversion options. This structure ensures that ordinary shareholders' voting power remains unaffected and allows for increased equity capital without significantly impacting key financial metrics such as ROE and EPS.
The company also outlined detailed conditions for the redemption of these shares, including cumulative dividend provisions and non-participation clauses. These features align with Tokyu's strategy to maintain a robust financial foundation and ensure flexibility in future funding options. The amendment process will be finalized at the upcoming shareholder meeting on June 26, 2026.
