Unitika is requesting 87 billion yen in financial support to withdraw from textiles! ? | ユニチカが、繊維撤退で870億円金融支援要請か!?
ユニチカは28日に、不振の繊維事業から撤退すると発表したそうで2025年8月までに事業譲渡などで合意をめざす。再建に向け官民ファンドや取引銀行に債権放棄を含め870億円の金融支援を求めた。資金は撤退に伴う費用や力を入れるフィルムの販売拡大に充てる。業績悪化を受け、社長ら経営陣は同年4月下旬をめどに辞任するそうなのですが赤字事業を撤退するのは素晴らしいと思いますしこのまま続けてもたぶん経営破綻すると思います。

Unitika announced on the 28th that it will withdraw from the underperforming textile business, and aims to reach an agreement on the transfer of the business by August 2025. In order to rebuild, the company requested 87 billion yen in financial support, including debt forgiveness, from public-private funds and banks. The funds will be used to cover costs associated with the withdrawal and to expand sales of film, the company's focus. Due to the deterioration in business performance, the president and other management team are expected to resign in late April of the same year, but I think it's a good idea to withdraw from loss-making businesses, and I think the company will probably go bankrupt if it continues like this.
