Ferrovial: Nasdaq-100 Inclusion Confirmed – From Probability to Outcome

By Jesus Rodriguez Aguilar

  • Nasdaq-100 inclusion confirmed, effective Dec 22, moving the thesis from probability to outcome and validating Ferrovial’s U.S.-centric infrastructure positioning.
  • Index inclusion should drive about $315m of passive inflows, supporting near-term demand and delivering longer-lasting benefits through improved liquidity, spreads, and U.S. investor coverage.
  • Beyond the index event, value creation remains tied to U.S. managed lanes and the JFK New Terminal One, underpinning durable EBITDA growth through 2027.

Matsuya R&D (7317 JP): Omron (6645 JP)’s Preconditional Tender Offer Is a Done Deal

By Arun George

  • Matsuya R&D (7317 JP) has recommended a preconditional tender offer from Omron Corp (6645 JP) at JPY1,110, a 22.8% premium to the last close price.
  • While the offer represents an all-time high, it is light as it is 22% below the midpoint of the target IFA DCF valuation range. 
  • This is a done deal, as the lower limit is marginally above the level of irrevocables. Timing is the key risk with the offer expected to start in late June.

Marubeni (8002 JP): Re-Rating Done, Spot Copper Priced In

By Rahul Jain

  • Non-Resource platforms (leasing, agri) are stabilizing earnings; further upside depends on faster platform scaling and capital returns.
  • Fair value ~¥4,550 on spot EPS; Hold bias with asymmetric downside if copper or FX turns.
