Strike Co., Ltd. announces that, as per the "Notice Regarding Conclusion of Absorption-Type Company Split Agreement and Partial Amendment to Articles of Incorporation (Partial Amendment to Trade Name and Business Purpose, etc.) Accompanying the Transition to a Holding Company Structure Through Company Split" dated October 17, 2025, the absorption-type company split became effective today (April 1, 2026). Consequently, our trade name has been changed to "Strike Group Co., Ltd.", and our M&A brokerage business has been succeeded by "Strike Co., Ltd." (whose trade name was changed today from "Strike Split Preparation Company Inc."), thus completing the transition to a holding company structure, as detailed below.
1. Background and Purpose of Transition to Holding Company Structure
Our group has continued to grow with M&A brokerage as its core business, operating under the mission "Creating companions who change the world." In response to the increasing size and complexity of cases in the domestic M&A market and the growing need for strategic business reorganization by listed companies, we have transitioned to a holding company structure to simultaneously strengthen group-wide governance and deepen expertise in each business area.
Moving forward, centered around "Strike Group Co., Ltd.", which will be responsible for overall group management strategy, M&A strategy, and governance enhancement, we will accelerate the provision of value as a "Comprehensive Consulting Firm" that supports all stages of M&A by separating and optimizing each function: M&A brokerage, Financial Advisor (FA), and M&A strategy consulting.
The listed company after the transition to the holding company structure will be our company, the holding company ("Strike Group Co., Ltd." (Securities Code: 6196)).
