JAPAN POST HOLDINGS Co Corporate Events
Japan Post Holdings Co., Ltd. will reorganize part of its group structure by taking direct ownership of JP TWOWAY CONTACT Co., Ltd., which is currently held by wholly owned subsidiary Japan Post Corporate Service Co., Ltd. The move, executed through a simple absorption-type company split effective July 1, 2026, transfers all TW shares and related assets and liabilities to the parent without changing Japan Post Holdings’ capital or requiring shareholder approval.
By making JP TWOWAY CONTACT a direct wholly owned subsidiary, Japan Post Holdings aims to strengthen the unit’s management foundation and accelerate efforts to improve its corporate structure and medium- to long-term growth. As the transaction is intra-group, involves no consideration or new share issuance, and is not expected to create issues in fulfilling obligations, its primary impact is on governance and management oversight rather than on the group’s financial position.
