Big investment company KKR is close to finishing its purchase of Japanese medical equipment manufacturer Topcon as private equity firms show more interest in the Japanese market. Multiple reliable sources say an agreement will be ready for signing in several days as Japan welcomes new corporate developments.

The possible Topcon acquisition has a market worth of 323.4 billion yen ($2.15 billion) because Topcon leads this sector. Since its 1932 establishment in Tokyo Topcon has evolved into a business enterprise that handles medical supplies, vision care equipment, infrastructure technology and positioning technology.

The following transaction information surfaces its main features:

  • The market reacted positively as Topcon stock rose 8.55 percent when news broke out first.
  • Topcon holds its major ownership between ValueAct Capital and Oasis Management Company
  • Topcon expects its fiscal year group operating profit will total 7 billion yen before March 31.

These negotiations happen during a period of growing shareholder influence and economic changes that make Japan more welcoming for private equity investors. More companies like JSR and Fuji Soft have chosen private equity buyouts which shows growing market trends.

KKR and Topcon have not released statements about their ongoing talks. Private equity firms from other nations see a promising investment opportunity in Japan since they want to buy technology and medical companies here.
