The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The Company has determined that the Plan remains necessary and effective at this time in order to maintain its autonomy, independence and neutrality as a broadcaster and news organization, and to prevent corporate value and the common interests of shareholders from being impaired by large-scale purchases aimed at pursuing short-term profits. Another reason is to require the acquirer to disclose sufficient information and to secure time for shareholders to review the proposal and make a decision.
