CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–RMB Capital (�RMB), a Chicago-based independent investment advisory firm and a long-term shareholder of Faith Ltd. (4295 JP, Faith) that owns approximately 10% of the firms total outstanding shares, demands that Faiths statutory auditors conduct an investigation of the companys recent rejection of an RMB shareholder proposal.
The Kyoto District Court (the Court) confirmed the legitimacy of RMBs shareholder proposal to spin-off Nippon Columbia (the Proposal) at the 29th annual general shareholders meeting at Faith, scheduled for June 2021, in its ruling issued on June 7th, 2021.
However, Faiths board asserts it does not accept the ruling of the Court without providing any further reasoning in its press release on June 11th, 2021 and continues to damage RMBs shareholder rights. While established precedents, including the decision by the Court, as well as widely accepted academic theory, accept a flexible scope of shareholder proposals, RMB believes Faiths ignorance of shareholder rights poses a serious threat to the public listing system of companies in Japan, and even to capitalism in the country itself.
To address this issue, RMB demands the statutory auditors at Faith investigate the items below and disclose their findings immediately to the general shareholders of Faith:
