The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The Company states that 3D could increase its influence over the Company’s management and force management decisions that prioritize short-term profits, potentially impairing corporate value and the common interests of shareholders. It also states that purchases in the market are coercive toward general shareholders because they do not provide sufficient information or an opportunity for consideration.
