What this is
The gap between Game Freak's merger notice and the merger taking effect: 35 days, from 27 October to 1 December 2015.
How it’s built
- The notice date is from the gazette page; the effective date is from the national tax agency's company register history.
- The days between them were counted.
What we assumed
Nothing. The figure is used as published.
Sanity check
Creditors had one month to object, to 27 November, so the earliest lawful effective date was 28 November; the merger took effect four days after the objection period closed.
Where it comes from
Our calculation from other figures in the trainer’s notes.
