Chemical Group will transfer its Corporate Venture Capital (CVC) business to its consolidated subsidiary Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation through a simplified absorption-type split effective April 1,

consolidated subsidiary Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation (MCC) through a simplified absorption-type split effective April 1, 2026. By transferring the targeted business and assets to MCC, which has an innovation division, the company aims to integrate the organization and business assets and accelerate initiatives to create innovation. There will be no allotment of shares or consideration paid in connection with the split, and there will be no change in capital stock.\n\n### Assets Subject to the Split and Future Outlook\nThe assets subject to the split include all shares of the consolidated subsidiary Diamond Edge Ventures, Inc., equity investments in multiple venture capital funds, and all shares of startup companies held by the Mitsubishi Chemical Group. From April 1, 2026, MCC will succeed these assets and liabilities. As this absorption-type split is conducted between consolidated subsidiaries, the impact on consolidated financial results is expected to be minimal.","jir_financial_highlights":"Assets: 6,991 million yen (Unknown)\nLiabilities: 116 million yen (Unknown)\nNumber of Issued Shares (Splitting Company): 1,506,288,107 shares (as of 2025-09-30) (64,820,900 shares of treasury stock canceled as of 2025-10-28)\nNumber of Issued Shares (Successor Company): 572,034,109 shares (Unknown)\nRevenue for Most Recent Fiscal Year: 4,407,405 million yen (Consolidated, IFRS) (Unknown)\nOperating Income for Most Recent Fiscal Year: 196,694 million yen (Consolidated, IFRS) (Unknown)\nNet Income for Most Recent Fiscal Year: 105,636 million yen (Consolidated, IFRS) (Unknown)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#MitsubishiChemicalGroup, #CompanySplit, #CorporateRestructuring","jir_key_figures":"Assets: 6,991 million yen (Fiscal Year Ending March 2025)\nLiabilities: 116 million yen (Fiscal Year Ending March 2025)\nNumber of Issued Shares (Splitting Company): 1,506,288,107 shares (as of 2025-09-30)","jir_meta_title":"Mitsubishi Chemical Group Decides on Business Succession by Simplified Absorption-Type Split Effective April 1, 2026","jir_meta_description":"Mitsubishi Chemical Group will transfer its Corporate Venture Capital business to its consolidated subsidiary Mitsubishi Chemical through a simplified absorption-type split effective April 1, 2026.
