On Friday 6 June, Azoom (3496 JP) announced it would conduct an offering (small issuance of new shares, some Treasury shares, larger selldown by the main shareholder).
That comes in conjunction with a transfer to TSE Prime from TSE Growth, which itself leads to a TOPIX Inclusion trade next month. 
The company has decided to tack on a special dividend for this year, on top of growth and more liquidity. None of this is especially bad.
