KADOKAWA Corporation is acquiring 903,100 shares of its own common stock for approximately 2.935 billion yen to fund a performance-linked stock remuneration plan.
The share acquisition will be executed through the disposal of treasury stock, with the transaction scheduled for completion on February 18, 2026.
The program incentivizes executive officers of the parent company and directors of subsidiaries, specifically excluding outside directors, to align leadership interests with shareholder value.
The trust mechanism managing these shares, originally established in 2017, has had its operational timeline extended through the end of August 2027.
Voting rights for the 903,100 shares held within the trust will not be exercised, ensuring the arrangement has a neutral impact on corporate governance.
Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank and an independent third-party administrator will oversee the trust to ensure transparency and compliance with beneficiary requirements.
