Three weeks ago, Yamauchi No 10 Family Office (YFO) announced its intentions to launch a Tender Offer by end-June. Toyo Construction (1890 JP) got upset and called YFO names.

Toyo Construction - YFO Standstill Against TC Hostility

<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/toyo-construction-co-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:1176:1" rel="noopener">Toyo Construction (1890 JP)</a> today released a change to its Target Opinion Statement for Infroneer's takeover bid at ¥770/share. It supports the tender itself, but withdraws its recommendation investors tender.</li>
<li>Infroneer refused to raise their price, so this effectively kills their bid (though they will extend). TC will engage with Yamauchi Family Office which has separately offered to bid ¥1,000/share.</li>
<li>The dynamics have now changed. This is a range trade, and will likely take time unless Infroneer says "I'll sell at ¥1,000/share."</li>

<li>A Nikkei article this morning says the mystery bidder behind WK1/2/3 Limited is Nintendo founding family's Yamauchi No.10 Family Office. This changes things more than just knowing their identity does.</li>
<li>To start, their website is the most fun investment management company website I have come across. It's great.  <a href="https://y-n10.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://y-n10.com/</a>. It's also well worth reading. It's also worth noting their history.</li>

To start, their website is the most fun investment management company website I have come across. It's great.  https://y-n10.com/. It's also well worth reading. It's also worth noting their history.

ToyoKen (1890) Mystery Bidder Is Yamauchi No. 10 Family Office - And That Changes Things

<ul>
<li>WK 1-3 Limited are now (as of a week ago) 17.34% of Toyo Construction's share register. They bought 40+% of volume in the relevant period, as I suggested they might.</li>
<li>On a realtime basis, they could be 20+%, but because no single entity is there they would not become top shareholder as a triumvirate.</li>
<li>I offer consolidated thoughts and like the idea of buying the dip.</li>
