absorption merger between its wholly owned subsidiaries and a share distribution in kind, scheduled for October 1, 2026. Kyokuto Kowa will remain as the surviving company, while B.R. Holdings and Kyokuto Takamiya will be dissolved. This restructuring aims to rationalize group management and enhance governance. As part of the merger, Kyokuto Kowa will allot all its shares to the Company, and East Japan Concrete will distribute its shares as a share in kind.\n\n### Future Outlook and Impact\nThis organizational restructuring is limited to transactions within our group, and it is expected to have a minimal impact on consolidated performance. The merger aims to improve management efficiency and strengthen governance, thereby stabilizing future business operations. Post-merger, there will be no change to the trade name, location, representative, or business content of Kyokuto Kowa, and the capital stock will be maintained.","jir_financial_highlights":"Total Assets: 25,711 million yen (unknown)\nNet Assets: 9,508 million yen (unknown)\nNet Sales: 26,147 million yen (unknown)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#YokogawaBridgeHoldings, #CorporateRestructuring, #JapaneseStocks","jir_key_figures":"Total Assets: 25,711 million yen\nNet Assets: 9,508 million yen\nNet Sales: 26,147 million yen","jir_meta_title":"\u3010Yokogawa Bridge HD\u3011 Organizational Restructuring and Merger Implementation | October 2026","jir_meta_description":"Yokogawa Bridge Holdings plans to implement a merger and share distribution in kind of Kyokuto Kowa and East Japan Concrete in October 2026, aiming to streamline group management and strengthen governance.","jir_og_title":"\u3010Yokogawa Bridge HD\u3011 Organizational Restructuring and Merger Implementation | October 2026","jir_og_description":"Yokogawa Bridge Holdings will carry out organizational restructuring in October 2026, aiming to improve management efficiency and strengthen governance.","jir_og_image_url":"\/assets\/og\/company-general_ir.jpg","jir_chart_data_collection":"[]","ir_related_company":9372,"ir_release_date":"","ir_type":"","ir_is_new":false,"ir_document_url":"","jir_ir_type":"corporate_restructuring","footnotes":""},"sector":[],"importance":[],"class_list":["post-88484","ir_release","type-ir_release","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
