With 71.41% of shares held by the founder and an asset management company, improving the free float ratio is urgent, and a plan has been announced to achieve compliance by the end of June 2027.\n\n### Future Measures and Impact on Shareholders\nTo raise the free float ratio to 25% or higher, the company will request share sales by founder Keisuke Ohira and consider staged share disposals assuming sales by major shareholders. Timing and methods of sales will be determined with consideration for share price impact, and appropriate disclosures will be made. If compliance is not achieved by the end of June 2027, measures such as designation as a surveillance stock or reorganization stock, and in the worst case delisting, may occur, so careful action is required.","jir_financial_highlights":"Free Float Ratio: 22.87% (Unknown)\nNumber of Shareholders: 3,476 people (Unknown)\nNumber of Free Float Units: 58,876 units (Unknown)\nMarket Value of Free Float: 14.3 hundred million yen (Unknown)\nPlanned Period: June 30, 2027 (Unknown)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#Bleach, #ShareLiquidity, #ListingMaintenanceStandards","jir_key_figures":"Free Float Ratio: 22.87%\nNumber of Shareholders: 3,476 people\nNumber of Free Float Units: 58,876 units","jir_meta_title":"Bleach, Inc.
