Furukawa Battery sets record date for extraordinary shareholder meeting on consolidation

The Furukawa Battery Co., Ltd. announced a record date for an Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders, anticipated to be held between mid-November and mid-December 2025. The record date for determining shareholders eligible to exercise voting rights has been set for September 30, 2025 (Tuesday). An announcement regarding this record date will be made on September 12, 2025 (Friday), via electronic public notice on the company's website.

The meeting will address the proposed share consolidation and an amendment to the articles of incorporation to abolish the unit share system. These proposals stem from the outcome of the tender offer by AP78 Co., Ltd., which did not acquire all of Furukawa Battery's common shares (excluding treasury shares and those held by Furukawa Electric Co., Ltd.).

Further details regarding the exact date, venue, and specific agenda items for the Extraordinary General Meeting will be announced as soon as they are finalized.
