Yamaha Motor on Smartkarma
Independent analysts on Smartkarma have provided insightful coverage of Yamaha Motor. Travis Lundy‘s report, titled “Yamaha Motors (7272 JP) – Secondary Offering as Toyota Sells Down – Easy To Digest,” highlights the planned sell-down of 4.6% of Yamaha Motors by Toyota, Yamaha Corp, and MS&AD. The report emphasizes the company’s high dividend, low multiple, and easy placement due to its small size. The move is seen as freeing up Yamaha Motor to sell down cross-holdings, with the offering expected to be straightforward given the price, guidance, and dividend yield.
Another analyst, Sumeet Singh, in the report “Yamaha Motors Placement – A Relatively Small Cross-Shareholding Unwind,” discusses a group of shareholders aiming to raise approximately US$330m by selling about 3.6% of Yamaha Motor. The report notes that this sell-down is part of a cross-shareholding unwind and emphasizes the deal dynamics within the ECM framework. Despite recent underperformance, the planned sell-off is not deemed surprising, and the analysts seem to lean positively (bull) on Yamaha Motor‘s prospects in these offerings.
