TOKYO (Reuters) – Japan’s Hitachi Transport System Ltd said on Wednesday it would raise 127.2 billion yen ($975 million) by issuing a single preferred share to majority shareholder KKR & Co.
It will also issue a second class of preferred share for 10 billion yen to KKR as an indemnity claim.
Hitachi Transport is due to be delisted on Feb. 24 after the U.S. private equity firm’s successful tender offer for it.
