of the end of February 2026, the free float ratio was 38.9%, the number of shareholders was 17,347, and the market capitalization was 91,307 million yen, meeting all the listing maintenance criteria for the Prime Market.","jir_summary":"### Status of Compliance with Listing Maintenance Criteria\nLife Corporation has confirmed that as of February 28, 2026, it meets all the listing maintenance criteria of the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime Market. The free float ratio is 38.9%, the number of shareholders is 17,347, and the market capitalization is 91,307 million yen, reflecting an improvement from the non-compliant free float ratio of 34.8% at the end of February 2025. The stock split of one common share into two shares effective March 1, 2025, and the introduction of a shareholder benefit program contributed to broadening the investor base.\n\n### Initiatives Toward Compliance and Future Outlook\nThe company recognizes that the high proportion of long-term shareholders and treasury stock holdings have been factors in the decline of the free float ratio and addressed the reduction of policy-held shares by financial institution shareholders. In November 2024, the company acquired 7,343 thousand shares through a treasury stock tender offer and cancelled 8,400 thousand treasury shares on May 30, 2025. These measures improved the free float ratio and contributed to enhancements in EPS and ROE. The company will continue to strive to maintain compliance with the Prime Market\u2019s listing maintenance criteria and enhance corporate value.","jir_financial_highlights":"Number of Shareholders: 17,347 persons (Increased from 10,040 persons at the end of February 2025)\nNumber of Free Float Shares: 352,697 units (Increased from 172,423 units at the end of February 2025)\nFree Float Ratio: 38.9% (Improved from 34.8% at the end of February 2025)\nMarket Capitalization: 91,307 million yen (Increased from 60,751 million yen at the end of February 2025)\nNumber of Treasury Stock Cancellations: 8,400 thousand shares (Cancelled on May 30, 2025)\nNumber of Treasury Stock Acquisitions (Tender Offer): 7,343 thousand shares (7.43%) (Acquired in November 2024)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#LifeCorporation, #ListingMaintenanceCriteria, #GeneralIR","jir_key_figures":"Number of Shareholders: 17,347 persons (end of February 2026)\nFree Float Ratio: 38.9% (end of February 2026)\nNumber of Treasury Stock Cancellations: 8,400 thousand shares (May 30, 2025)","jir_meta_title":"Life Corporation Complies with Listing Maintenance Criteria\uff5cApril 2026","jir_meta_description":"Life Corporation announced that as of the end of February 2026, the free float ratio was 38.9% and the number of shareholders was 17,347, meeting all the listing maintenance criteria of the Prime Market.","jir_og_title":"Life Corporation Complies with Listing Maintenance Criteria\uff5cApril 2026","jir_og_description":"We announce that as of the end of February 2026, the free float ratio was 38.9% and the number of shareholders was 17,347, meeting the listing maintenance criteria.","jir_og_image_url":"\/assets\/og\/company-general_ir.jpg","jir_chart_data_collection":"[]","ir_related_company":8866,"ir_release_date":"","ir_type":"","ir_is_new":false,"ir_document_url":"","jir_ir_type":"general_ir","footnotes":""},"sector":[],"importance":[],"class_list":["post-42011","ir_release","type-ir_release","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.7 -
