MT Newswires Live06-26 19:19

Sumitomo Electric (TYO:5802) will absorb 45 billion yen in bond obligations from wholly owned unit Sumitomo Riko on July 31 to centralize group finance functions, according to a Tokyo bourse filing on Friday.

Under the agreement, Sumitomo Electric will succeed to 45 billion yen in bond obligations and equivalent assets from Sumitomo Riko, with no consideration exchanged since the asset and liability values are equal.

The move aims to strengthen the group's finance operations and reduce administrative burdens on the subsidiary.

No shareholder approvals are required as the transaction qualifies as a simplified split under the Companies Act. The impact on Sumitomo Electric's consolidated results is expected to be immaterial.
