note inc. ( (JP:5243) ) just unveiled an announcement.
Note Inc. disclosed that founder and CEO Sadaaki Kato sold 550,000 shares, representing 2.84% of the company’s 19,335,800 issued shares, through on-market transactions executed on April 15, 2026. His stake fell from 29.15% to 26.31%, but he remains a major shareholder and has pledged not to sell additional common shares for two years.
The company explained that the sale followed a period of capital and business alliances that had concentrated ownership and dampened market liquidity. Management framed the transaction as a move to improve tradable share ratios and liquidity in preparation for a potential shift to the TSE Prime Market, while stressing there is no change in Kato’s commitment to the company or its long-term value creation plans.
