NEW YORK/TOKYO -- SoftBank Group is reviewing its plan to buy $3 billion worth of shares from existing shareholders of U.S. office sharing company WeWork, signaling the Japanese conglomerate's intention to cut back on its exposure amid a global stock market sell-off.
SoftBank told shareholders on Tuesday it was possible that the tender offer may not go ahead if the conditions for the offer were not met, according to a person familiar with the matter.
