Mizuno Launches ¥3 Billion Share Buyback to Boost Capital Efficiency

The latest announcement is out from Mizuno ( (JP:8022) ).

Mizuno Corporation has authorized a share repurchase of up to 800,000 common shares, equivalent to 1.04% of its outstanding stock excluding treasury shares, for a total amount not exceeding ¥3 billion. The buyback will be executed through market purchases on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, including off-auction ToSTNeT-3 transactions, during the period from 27 February 2026 to 31 August 2026.
