The refinancing plans of Toshiba comprises loans of ¥1 trillion from the three leading Japanese Banks and an investment of ¥300 billion from the Development Bank of Japan, which is wholly owned by Government of Japan. Later this year or in early 2020, Toshiba Memory is aiming to get listed in Tokyo, allowing the company to access capitals from the public-equity market.
Sources mentioned that few weeks back Toshiba Memory Holdings had selected 12 Director candidates, including seven new Independent Directors for election to its Board of Directors. The new Board of the company would also raise the number of Independent Directors from seven to ten.
The company hopes that the new Independent Directors bring to the Board more diversity that would help in increasing the shareholder value as well as drive sustainable growth over the long term.
