LogProstyle's Strategic Acquisition of iFlats
In a significant move for its expansion strategy, LogProstyle (NYSE American: LGPS), based in Minato, Tokyo, has entered into a stock transfer agreement with iFlats, headquartered in Osaka, to acquire 100% of its outstanding shares by August 27, 2026. This acquisition will also include iFlats’ wholly-owned subsidiary, Land Eye, further consolidating LogProstyle's presence in the real estate sector. The official acquisition is expected to take place in September 2026, following the fulfillment of certain preconditions.
Rationale Behind the Acquisition
LogProstyle has been actively involved in real estate business activities, particularly focusing on the planning and sale of renovated condominiums, primarily throughout the Tokyo metropolitan area. iFlats, since its inception in 2001, has established itself in the Kansai region, particularly Osaka and Kyoto, specializing in the sale of newly constructed condominiums. The company possesses a strong network and market information cultivated through its extensive dealings with developers, which supports its efforts in the resale of renovated condominiums and real estate leasing, thus building a robust local business foundation.
This acquisition enables LogProstyle to leverage its successful business model in the Kansai region, thus enhancing the geographic and revenue base of the company. The existing management team at iFlats will continue to oversee operations, ensuring business continuity while simultaneously striving for synergy with LogProstyle.

Moving forward, we will continue to utilize mergers and acquisitions as a vital element of our growth strategy, committed to enhancing our corporate value."
