Kadoya Sesame Mills (2612.T), a Japanese sesame oil producer founded in 1858, is reviewing strategic options to enhance corporate value, including a potential take-private transaction. The company said on September 1 that no decision had been made. An English-language Mergermarket article distributed to paid subscribers prompted buying on September 2 as investors anticipated that a tender offer (TOB) could include a premium. The shares reached the Tokyo Stock Exchange's daily limit-up bid price. Details of any transaction, including its structure, timing and price, remain undecided.
