Oasis Management, a Hong Kong-based activist fund and KADOKAWA's largest shareholder, has submitted a proposal to dismiss President Takeshi Natsuno at the company's upcoming general meeting. The proposal is based on a decline in the company's Return on Equity (ROE) since Natsuno's appointment in 2021.
24日に開かれるKADOKAWAの定時株主総会で、夏野剛社長の解任を求める株主提案を投資ファンドが出している。米ISSとグラスルイスの議決権行使助言会社2社が「賛成」を推奨したことが11日、わかった。海外投資家に影響力のある助言会社がそろってトップ解任の提案を推奨したことで、議決権行使の行方が注目される。
株主提案を出したのは「物言う株主」である香港のアクティビストファンド、オアシス・マネジメント。KADOKAWA株の13.8%を持つ筆頭株主でもある。
オアシスは、夏野氏が2021年に社長に就任した後、株主のお金を企業がどう有効に使ったのかを示す「自己資本収益率（ROE）」が8.2%から0.5%に低下したと指摘。KADOKAWAが持つ知的財産を成長や収益に結びつけることができず、「取締役として不適任」と解任を求めている。
ISSとグラスルイスはオア…
