SUMMARY
  • Surpassing the pre-COVID average of 49%, the NAV discount currently stands at 61%, implying potential 12% market-neutral returns in the short-term through the recovery of the core transportation business.
  • Activist investor influence in distributing Keisei Electric's ¥1,980bn Oriental Land (4661 JP) stake to existing shareholders could unleash over 150% potential upside, surpassing the earlier mentioned 12% gain.
  • Thus, there is high likelihood of Keisei Electric Railway Co (9009 JP)'s continued outperformance over Oriental Land in the medium term.
