Mitsubishi Logisnext will be removed from the JPX-Nikkei Index 400 on April 15, 2026, following its designation as 'to be delisted' by the Tokyo Stock Exchange [1]. This action is being taken by Nikkei and JPX Market Innovation & Research, as announced on April 9, 2026 [1]. No company will be added to replace Mitsubishi Logisnext immediately; instead, the number of constituents in the index will temporarily decrease, returning to 400 in August during the next periodic review [1].
The removal of Mitsubishi Logisnext from the index is a direct consequence of its delisting status, which may impact index-tracking funds and investors who hold positions in the company as part of their JPX-Nikkei Index 400 portfolios [1]. The announcement did not provide further details regarding the reasons for the delisting or any forward-looking statements from analysts or company representatives [1].
Market implications include potential adjustments by passive investment vehicles and a temporary reduction in the index's constituent count until the periodic review in August [1].
CONCLUSION
Mitsubishi Logisnext's removal from the JPX-Nikkei Index 400 is a notable event for index investors, resulting from its delisting designation by the Tokyo Stock Exchange. The index will temporarily operate with fewer constituents until August, when the next review restores the count. No replacement company will be added until then, potentially affecting index-tracking funds.
