STORY\_CONTINUES Toshiba Backs JIP-Led Buyout in Boost to Deal’s Chances (2) Once celebrated for its technology breakthroughs, Toshiba paid what was Japan’s largest-ever penalty for falsifying financial statements in 2015. It then suffered a disastrous foray into the nuclear business that forced it to take a \$6.3 billion writedown and sell off its crown jewel memory-chip business, reorganized as Kioxia. It’s also hived off its medical, home appliances and TV operations. Activists began circling the troubled company and, in 2021, it announced plans to split into three units, only to revise that plan in favor of a two-way split in 2022. The chief executive at the time resigned to take responsibility for the chaos, after which the board began soliciting bids to take the company private.
