Investment Group Reportedly Seeks Up to 50% of JYP Entertainment
Japan-linked NEXROC Group and SVCV are reportedly seeking a major stake in JYP Entertainment, the South Korean music company behind K-pop acts.
Reports say the two firms are targeting 25% to 50% of JYP’s shares, more than the roughly 15% held by founder Park Jin Young and related parties.
They reportedly plan to begin a public tender offer on November 20 and negotiate with JYP for 30 days first.
JYP says it has received no proposal related to acquiring its shares.
The accounts therefore differ on whether the companies have formally approached JYP.
If negotiations fail, the investors will decide whether to proceed with a public offer and on what terms, while JYP’s next steps are not stated.
