The JEQ SEC filings page on Stock Titan provides a historical view of regulatory documents associated with abrdn Japan Equity Fund, Inc. (formerly NYSE: JEQ), a diversified closed-end management investment company that reorganized into abrdn Global Infrastructure Income Fund (NYSE: ASGI). While recent company communications are captured in press releases, this page is designed to surface the fund’s formal filings as they relate to its tender offer, proxy process, and reorganization.
Company announcements describe several key regulatory steps. JEQ reported that it would conduct a conditional cash tender offer to purchase up to 50% of its issued and outstanding shares at a price equal to 98% of net asset value per share, and that the Offer to Purchase and Letter of Transmittal would be mailed to record holders and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The fund also noted that documents related to the tender offer could be obtained through the SEC’s website, and that stockholders should read them carefully because they contain important information.
For the reorganization, JEQ and ASGI stated that they planned to file a combined prospectus/proxy statement with the SEC in connection with the proposed merger, and that this document would describe the transfer of all of JEQ’s assets to ASGI in exchange for newly issued ASGI common shares and the assumption of JEQ’s liabilities. JEQ’s releases explain that the proxy materials would only be distributed once a registration statement containing the prospectus/proxy statement was declared effective by the SEC, and they encourage shareholders to review the prospectus/proxy statement because it would contain important information about the transaction.
