The acquisition period is from May 18, 2026, to March 16, 2027, with a maximum amount of 150 billion yen. The maximum number of shares to be acquired is 80 million (equivalent to 11.2% of issued shares), to be executed through market purchases. The cancellation is scheduled for March 23, 2027, aiming to enhance shareholder returns and improve capital efficiency.\n\n### Impact on Shareholders and Future Outlook\nThe share buyback and cancellation will reduce the total number of issued shares, likely increasing per-share value and strengthening shareholder returns. The company aims to improve capital efficiency and stabilize its stock price, pursuing long-term enhancement of corporate value. During the acquisition period, the company will respond flexibly to market conditions to maximize shareholder benefits.","jir_financial_highlights":"Number of shares to be repurchased: 80 million shares (Maximum set)\nTotal amount for share buyback: 150 billion yen (Maximum set)\nShareholding status as of March 31, 2026: 1,506,899 shares (Unknown)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#SubaruCorporation, #ShareBuyback, #CapitalPolicy, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Number of shares to be repurchased: 80 million shares (maximum)\nTotal purchase amount: 150 billion yen (maximum)\nShares held as of March 31, 2026: 1,506,899 shares","jir_meta_title":"\u3010Subaru Corporation\u3011 Share Buyback and Cancellation Resolution | May 2026","jir_meta_description":"Subaru resolved to conduct a share buyback and cancellation in May 2026.
