HONG KONG & TOKYO--()--Oasis Management Company Ltd. (“Oasis”) is the manager to funds that own over 7.5% of Fujitec Co. Ltd. (“Fujitec” or the “Company). Oasis has adopted the Japan FSA’s “Principles of Responsible Ownership” (a/k/a the Japan Stewardship Code) and in line with those principles, Oasis monitors and engages with its investee companies.

In the interest of improvement of the corporate governance for all of Japan, Oasis seeks to highlight Fujitec’s serious governance issues arising from numerous suspicious related-party transactions with the Uchiyama family’s companies. To date, the details surrounding these transactions have been unknown to shareholders or recent external directors. Oasis believes that shedding light on these numerous transactions would serve for the benefits of shareholders, employees, business partners, and all other stakeholders of Fujitec that desire to improve Fujitec’s corporate governance and pursue sustainable growth under the strong leadership of a Board of Directors that is independent of the Uchiyama family.

Today, Oasis announces the “Protect Fujitec” campaign in order to protect and defend the Company’s corporate value and recommend to shareholders to vote against the reappointment of President Uchiyama as a director at the upcoming AGM.

Full presentation details are available at www.ProtectFujitec.com.
