据《烟业通讯》报道编译 据路透社的一则报道说,日本烟草公司在9月27日表示,如果日本政府决定出售其在日本烟草公司中的部分股权,为3.11地震与海啸后的重建筹集资金的话,它可能会回购一部分股票。
日本烟草公司的执行副总裁Masakazu Shimizu说:“我们一直希望政府会出售它在日本烟草公司中的全部股份。”
“我们不知道这些股份将以何种形式,或者分成多少份出售。”
“为了防止我们的股票价格出现过度的波动,我们会回购一些股权,但我们并没有说,我们会回购所有即将被出售的股份。”
日本政府在日本烟草公司中持有的股份已经减少到法定的最低程度,继续出售股份,就需要对法律进行修改。
但是,据彭博新闻社的一则报道说,日本执政的民主党在9月27日提议,将政府持有的50.01%的股权全部出售。
JT sale speculation continues
Tobacco Reporter
Sep 28, 2011
Japan Tobacco Inc. said yesterday that it might buy back some shares should the government decide to sell part of its stake in the cigarette maker to raise funds for rebuilding after the March 11 earthquake and tsunami, according to a Reuters story.
"We are always hoping that the government will sell all its shares in JT," said Masakazu Shimizu, an executive deputy president at JT.
"We don't know in which form or in how many tranches the shares are to be sold.
"We would buy back some of the shares in order to prevent excessive fluctuations in our stock price but we have not said that we would buy all the shares to be sold."
The government's holding in JT has already come down to the legal minimum and any sale would need revisions to the law.
But, according to a Bloomberg story, the ruling Democratic Party of Japan yesterday proposed selling the government's entire 50.01 per cent stake.
