AVI Presses Rohto Pharmaceutical to Refocus on Core Business Ahead of 2026 Chairman Vote Asset Value Investors (AVI) has updated its public campaign urging Rohto Pharmaceutical to prioritize core businesses and reduce its focus on regenerative medicine.
AVI criticizes Rohto’s continued investment in regenerative medicine, arguing there is no clear path to profitability and raising governance concerns around Chairman Kunio Yamada.
AVI plans to submit a shareholder proposal to dismiss Chairman Yamada at Rohto’s June 2026 Annual General Meeting.
For investors, the key issue is the tension between Rohto’s capital allocation toward regenerative medicine and AVI’s push for a tighter focus on existing core operations. AVI is framing regenerative medicine as a high-cost area without sufficient visibility on returns, and is directly challenging the board’s oversight under the current chairman.
The intention to file a proposal to remove the chairman sets up a potential governance showdown at the June 2026 AGM. That could influence how Rohto thinks about investment priorities, risk appetite and communication with shareholders over the next year. Investors will likely watch for Rohto’s formal response to AVI’s campaign, any changes in disclosure around the regenerative medicine business and whether other shareholders publicly back AVI’s position.

This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Announcement • Feb 27

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of Japanese stocks, typically moving 3.9% a week.
