Kokusai Electric Corporation ( (JP:6525) ) has issued an announcement.
Kokusai Electric said its principal shareholder, KKR HKE Investment L.P., plans to sell its entire 10.36% stake, equivalent to 24.69 million shares, through securities firms. As part of the transaction, Nomura Securities will coordinate purchase orders, temporarily holding about 11.55% of voting rights and becoming the company’s third-largest shareholder.
Nomura has notified Kokusai that it intends to resell these shares in domestic and overseas markets, ultimately ceasing to be a principal shareholder. The move marks a full exit by KKR’s investment vehicle and signals a shift toward broader market ownership, which could improve share liquidity while potentially altering the influence of existing large shareholders over the company’s governance.
