This framework allows the company to activate countermeasures without shareholder approval if the purchase activities do not adhere to the established procedural guidelines. The Board of Directors respects the recommendations of the Independent Committee and is preparing responses to maximize corporate value and shareholder interests.\n\n### Future Outlook and Impact on Shareholders\nAs the likelihood of Dalton and others executing large-scale purchase attempts increases, Asuka Pharmaceutical intends to seek shareholder approval at the upcoming general meeting to activate countermeasures aimed at preventing damage to long-term corporate value. If purchase activities occur, the company will protect minority shareholders\u2019 interests and ensure management stability while addressing conflicts of interest and hostile takeover risks. These actions aim to safeguard shareholder interests and promote sustainable corporate growth.","jir_financial_highlights":"","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#AsukaPharmaceutical, #IRRelated, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Proposal submission date at shareholders' meeting: June 24, 2026\nStatus of purchase attempt: Intended (contingency)\nConditions for implementing countermeasures: If large-scale purchase attempts are executed without following the procedures in this policy","jir_meta_title":"\u3010Asuka Pharmaceutical\u3011 Approves Shareholders\u2019 Meeting Countermeasures Against Large-Scale Purchases \uff5c May 2026","jir_meta_description":"Asuka Pharmaceutical plans to seek approval for the implementation of countermeasures at the shareholders' meeting in anticipation of large-scale purchase attempts by Dalton and others.
