This highlighted rising shareholder dissatisfaction with the board. Oasis Management criticized the meeting, saying Natsuno avoided answering questions, which the fund framed as a lack of accountability and a broader sign of concern around Kadokawa’s corporate governance. Kadokawa’s shares trade at ¥3,461, with the stock up 10.7% year to date. This indicates that the governance debate is unfolding alongside generally positive share performance in 2026. This level of dissent at the top of Kadokawa raises the risk of further shareholder pressure, potential leadership changes or governance reforms that could affect how the company sets and executes its strategy.お知らせ • Jun 27Kadokawa Corporation to Report Q1, 2027 Results on Aug 13, 2026Kadokawa Corporation announced that they will report Q1, 2027 results on Aug 13, 2026Major Estimate Revision • Jun 26Consensus EPS estimates fall by 14%The consensus outlook for fiscal year 2027 has been updated. 2027 EPS estimate fell from JP¥66.20 to JP¥56.67 per share.

Revenue is forecast to grow 6.8% p.a. on average during the next 3 years, compared to a 3.8% growth forecast for the Media industry in Japan. Over the last 3 years on average, earnings per share has fallen by 16% per year but the company’s share price has only fallen by 5% per year, which means it has not declined as severely as earnings.New Risk • Nov 08New minor risk - Share price stabilityThe company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of Japanese stocks, typically moving 6.1% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks.

ライブニュース • Jun 30Support for Kadokawa CEO Falls Sharply at AGM as Governance Questions MountAt Kadokawa’s latest AGM, support for CEO Takeshi Natsuno’s reappointment dropped to 59.68% from 90.26% a year earlier, while Board Chair Hiroo Unoura and internal director Nobuo Kawakami also received comparatively weak backing. This highlighted rising shareholder dissatisfaction with the board. Oasis Management criticized the meeting, saying Natsuno avoided answering questions, which the fund framed as a lack of accountability and a broader sign of concern around Kadokawa’s corporate governance. Kadokawa’s shares trade at ¥3,461, with the stock up 10.7% year to date. This indicates that the governance debate is unfolding alongside generally positive share performance in 2026. This level of dissent at the top of Kadokawa raises the risk of further shareholder pressure, potential leadership changes or governance reforms that could affect how the company sets and executes its strategy.

New Risk • Nov 08New minor risk - Share price stabilityThe company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of Japanese stocks, typically moving 6.1% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company.
