Hitachi is, as the media fuss suggests, in the last stages of its re-formation after ridding itself of nearly two-dozen listed subs over the last decade-plus.

Hitachi Transport System (9086) is the last major sub/affiliate without a new home. Hitachi owns just under 40%. SG Holdings (9143 JP) owns just under 10%. Both want to sell.
It is not clear HTS wants to be taken private, but there could be an interesting financial engineering solution to suit the sellers.
