Fuji Media Holdings, Inc., ¥ 100., Cash Dividend, Sep-29-2026

On February 4, 2026, Fuji Media Holdings (FMH) announced that it had received a notification from Aya Nomura, a major shareholder and daughter of activist investor Yoshiaki Murakami, withdrawing the group’s previously announced plan for a large-scale purchase of FMH shares. The withdrawal followed FMH’s partial compliance with demands made by the former Murakami Fund, particularly regarding the separation of its real estate business. In response to ongoing shareholder pressure and scrutiny over corporate governance, FMH revealed it is considering bringing in external capital for 11 group companies involved in urban development and tourism, including Sankei Building Co., with the possibility of divesting these subsidiaries entirely. This move aligns with FMH’s efforts to enhance capital efficiency and achieve a targeted return on equity (ROE) of 5 percent, as outlined in its “Reform Action Plan.” The Murakami group, which had previously indicated intentions to increase its shareholding to the legal maximum of 33.3 percent, has agreed to the company’s plan to repurchase up to 34.37 percent of outstanding shares, with an upper limit of 235 billion yen ($1.5 billion).

On March 27, 2026, Atra, an investment firm linked to Yoshiaki Murakami, together with other parties, proposed to acquire Fuji Media Holdings Inc.’s real estate business for 350 billion yen. Fuji Media is currently considering options for its real estate operations, including introducing outside capital and the possibility of an outright sale. Following Fuji Media’s announcement last month to spin off its real estate business, Murakami and associated investors sold most of their stakes in the company under a share buyback program. However, Atra, which did not participate in the buyback, subsequently acquired a 1.29 percent stake in Fuji Media. The company raised concerns about Atra’s new stake and called on Murakami and others to sell their shareholdings. In a written response, Murakami’s team noted that Fuji Media President Kenji Shimizu had acknowledged the company could not prevent firms outside the buyback program from purchasing shares.

On December 16, 2025, Fuji Media Holdings Inc (FMH) announced that on December 15, 2025, FMH confirmed receipt of a formal notice from Nomura, signaling intentions for a large-scale share acquisition unless FMH takes concrete steps to spin off its real estate business, a division central to the company’s financial strength. The Murakami group’s holdings have steadily increased since January, reaching 17.33 percent by late August, making them the largest shareholder block and intensifying pressure on FMH’s leadership. In response, FMH unveiled a defense plan in July requiring any investor seeking more than 20 percent of voting rights to submit a detailed explanation of intent, and, if approved by shareholders, allowing the company to issue free stock warrants to existing investors to dilute Murakami’s influence. Nomura’s notice indicated that if FMH begins preparations to separate or divest its real estate operations, the group will refrain from further share purchases, and that the acquisition plan could be withdrawn if shareholders endorse the defense measure. FMH has demanded additional information from Murakami’s side by December 22, 2025, to allow shareholders time to evaluate the proposal, and will decide whether to convene a shareholders’ meeting by early March to determine whether to activate its defensive strategy.
