Quick Summary:

Seven & i has consistently said that one of the big blockages to a deal with Couche-Tard is antitrust issues in the US where the groups already occupy the top two spots.

The initial public offering of its North American convenience store business, with 13,145 stores in the US and Canada, is expected to be launched as soon as the second half of 2026.

The company said it would also carry out a large-scale buyback programme worth as much as ¥2tn by 2030 using the proceeds of the IPO and the sale to Bain of non-core assets that include supermarket, restaurant and speciality stores.
