MT Newswires Live09-18

Vector (TYO:6058) will merge its wholly owned subsidiaries Starbank and Influencer Bank into Initial, effective Dec. 1, according to a Tuesday filing on the Tokyo Stock Exchange.

Initial, specializing in social media marketing, will absorb Starbank's celebrity and influencer services and Influencer Bank's micro-influencer platform. The merger aims to streamline Vector's marketing operations and enhance efficiency.

The merger will not involve any share allotments or monetary exchanges. Initial will retain its address in Tokyo with a share capital of 10 million yen. Vector will maintain 100% ownership.

Initial will take on Influencer Bank's loss of approximately 290 million yen, expected to reduce corporate taxes by about 100 million yen, benefiting profits for the fiscal year ending February 28, 2025. The impact of Starbank's loss will be minimal.

For the fiscal year ending Feb. 28, 2025, Vector forecasts net sales of 63 billion yen, operating profit of 8.5 billion yen, and profit attributable to owners of the parent of 5 billion yen.
