Mitsuba Board Opposes Shareholder Bid to Shift Dividend Control and Boost Payouts

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

Mitsuba Corporation ( (JP:7280) ) just unveiled an update.

Mitsuba Corporation disclosed that it has received a shareholder proposal for its 81st Ordinary General Meeting on June 25, 2026, and its board has resolved to oppose the measures. The proposal from an individual shareholder seeks to amend the Articles of Incorporation so that dividend decisions are made at the general meeting rather than by the board, reflecting dissatisfaction with past dividend levels.

The shareholder also calls for a sharply higher dividend of 100 yen per share for fiscal 2025, citing long-term share price underperformance, a gap between net asset value and market price, and the absence of share buybacks or stock splits. The proposal invokes recent Tokyo Stock Exchange guidance on management mindful of cost of capital and stock price, arguing that stronger shareholder returns and more frequent dividends would enhance Mitsuba’s valuation and corporate value, while criticizing the company’s past disclosure timing on similar proposals.
