AVI Urges Wacom To Make Governance Changes
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Asset Value Investors Limited ('AVI') launches a campaign calling for Wacom Corporation ('Wacom') to be more conscious of the capital market, and announces that AVI has submitted shareholder proposals ahead of Wacom's upcoming AGM in June. AVI has published a detailed presentation on a dedicated website. AVI invested in Wacom in August 2021 and has sought to engage in dialogue with the company as the largest shareholder, sending letters and presentations with the aim of improving corporate value in a sustainable manner. AVI is deeply concerned by the sluggish performance of the Branded Business segment, which has posted a cumulative loss of more than Y10bn since the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended 31 March 2022. The company has fallen far short of its mid-term plan targets and significantly underperformed the TOPIX index over this period. Considering these circumstances, AVI has initiated a public campaign and submitted shareholder proposals at this year's Annual General Meeting with the aim of supporting the sustainable enhancement of corporate value. AVI's shareholder proposals this year include: Establishment of a Transformation Plan Supervisory Committee Appointment of one outside director with capital markets background Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation regarding the handling of acquisition proposals based on the 'Guidelines for Corporate Takeovers' by Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry Kazunari Sakai, AVI Japan's Head of Research, commented: 'To improve alignment with investor expectations and shareholder interests, Wacom should go beyond the current Board's monitoring role by appointing directors with capital market experience, establishing a supervisory committee, and amending the Articles of Incorporation to align with METI's Guidelines for Corporate Takeovers.' 'Although the Branded Business segment continues to face challenges, we are confident that through shortening the product development cycle for entry-level products and strengthening e-commerce channels, Wacom can further reinforce its position as the global leader.' About Asset Value Investors (AVI): AVI is an investment management company established in London, United Kingdom, in 1985. AVI has invested in Japanese equities for nearly 40 years. AVI manages AVI Global Trust (AGT) and AVI Japan Opportunity Trust (AJOT) and other funds, collectively investing Y120bn into the Japanese market.

Expanded Real-World Data Presented at INS 2025 Reinforces Better Outcomes with Access Vascular's Hydrophilic Midline Catheter
BILLERICA, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 29, 2025-- Access Vascular, Inc. (AVI), a leader in advanced vascular access technology, today announced the presentation of new, expanded real-world data at the 2025 Infusion Nurses Society (INS) Annual Meeting in Las Vegas. The data reinforces significant improvements in midline catheter outcomes associated with AVI's proprietary hydrophilic biomaterial (HBM), building on findings previously shared at the Association for Vascular Access Annual Meeting in 2024. The study was independently designed and conducted by an acute care hospital in Montana and evaluated outcomes across 288 patients. It compared a conventional chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG)-coated polyurethane catheter to Access Vascular's HydroMID® HBM-based catheter. Key findings announced at INS 2025: 'With more than 125 catheters in each study arm, these findings add to the growing body of evidence that our hydrophilic biomaterial platform delivers tangible benefits where it matters most: improved outcomes for patients,' said Jim Biggins, CEO of Access Vascular. 'Fewer complications, longer dwell times, and higher rates of therapy completion all support a safer, more efficient experience for patients and providers alike.' Unlike traditional polyurethane catheters, AVI's devices are constructed from MIMIX®, a proprietary hydrogel-based material designed to reduce thrombus formation and bacterial adhesion. This fundamental material change targets the root causes of vascular access device failure. 'Concerns relating to frequent complications with our previous midline device kept growing. We felt defeated in our efforts to get our patients to the end of their therapy – we knew we could do better for them,' said Kelsey Pearson, RN, VA-BC at Benefis Hospital. 'We have noticed a significant improvement in our outcomes and provided a better patient experience since switching to the HydroMID® catheter.' About Access Vascular Access Vascular, Inc. (AVI) is redefining vascular access by engineering devices from a fundamentally better material. The MIMIX® hydrogel platform is designed to reduce the complications associated with traditional catheters, helping clinicians keep lines in place, improving the patient experience and delivering value to hospitals.

Belvoir Ranch plans reviewed as trails set to open this summer
CHEYENNE — The Cheyenne City Council received an update on the Belvoir Ranch master plan Friday, including details about recreational trail access opening this summer and potential for more developments in the future. Currently, recreational access is set to open this summer on the northern side of the city-owned ranch, which includes a 17-mile trail system. The city is still trying to figure out ways to get trail access south of the Union Pacific rail line that runs through the property. Options include building a bridge over the rail line, which is more expensive, or an underpass beneath the railroad, which is more cost-effective but more difficult to negotiate with Union Pacific. 'The current effort, which I understand, is not with the bridge, but rather is with the underpass,' said council member Pete Laybourn. 'So I think that is a very important part of this effort. In fact, I think to a lot of people like me, probably the most important aspect of how we reach the Big Hole, and all the really, very high-quality recreation is there.' The original master plan completion date was scheduled for summer 2024, but that was postponed to refine implementation measures. It was largely complete by September, but green property availability and possible scope refinement pushed that to December. The master plan update was presented by AVI Senior Planner Mark Christensen. He presented how the plan has evolved from the original 2008 master plan and what things may look like going forward. Some things from the original plan are set to move forward, like missile site monument signage, gated entry and wildlife viewing. Other things from the original plan, like equestrian trailheads, however, are no longer in the updated master plan. Challenges other than the railroad for recreational access also include cellular reception and funding opportunities. Christensen added that it will be important to take inventory of plants and wildlife to understand how future trail construction may impact the area. When asked about trail maintenance, Christensen said the city would likely have to rely on some volunteers at first, but it is something the city should consider more going forward. He said grazing will still be important for wildlife control, and the city is considering creating campsites, which will likely be primitive and not suitable for recreational vehicles. Notable historical assets in the area include old Atlas missile silos, teepee rings, indigenous artifacts, homestead locations and a famous outlaw cabin. Christensen said it was expensive to fully restore the missile silos and said the plan indicates the city should just look at including light interpretive signage, which is less expensive. He said it will be important to find ways to deter vandalism at these sites and implement safety measures at the missile silos. Council member Mark Moody asked about the potential negative impacts to hunting management. 'We're really thinking about the potential for conflicting uses,' Christensen said. 'So if I'm riding my mountain bike down the trail and scare away a deer that a guy's archery hunting for, that's the sort of conflict that we're seeking to manage. So, I think we have recommendations of ensuring that trail use doesn't interfere with the hunting season and those sorts of things. So it's kind of kind of more of a policy directive that we need to have, a policy to address these potential conflicts.' The east side of the ranch, which has access to the interstate and is closer to Cheyenne, is currently undeveloped. Christensen said there is opportunity to leverage this asset into more developments, though it is unclear what that may look like at this time. He said the area needs infrastructure development and the city should pursue ways to have that be developer-funded for things like large water lines. 'I think a lot of times, when something new is potentially looking at locating in the city, something exciting can happen. We tend to think maybe we could put it on the Belvoir,'' Christensen said. He said it is important to consider if the development meets characteristics of the area, including factors like the impact on the land and the duration of use. The natural and recreation area is more on the west side, and in the middle is mostly energy and resource opportunities. In the original 2008 plan, wind turbines were set to be placed along ridge lines. As that came to fruition, they were places in different areas than originally anticipated. Christensen said it is important to delineate where those and other energy developments will be placed going forward. He said there are other resource and development opportunities, including potential solar development on the future landfill site.
