On Thursday after the close, an entity tied to Polaris Capital announced an MBO of Welbe Inc (6556 JP). (Note this is Welbe not Welby Inc (4438 JP)). 
The MBO by Tender Offer is set at ¥1,089/share is at a 29.952% premium to Thursday's last trade. Coincidentally. It is well below where it traded 3-5 years ago.
If large domestic financial investors want a bump, we might see some fun, but I expect there is enough ownership willing to tender to get this over the hump.
