NISSAN MTR SPON AD

While Nissan sold 3.3 million vehicles last fiscal year, total calendar 2024 Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi alliance sales volume of 6.5 million vehicles makes the group the fourth-largest vehicle seller in the world, behind Toyota at 10.8 million, Volkswagen at 9.0 million, and Hyundai/Kia with 7.2 million vehicles sold. Nissan's financial services subsidiary provides consumers with auto loans and leases but also finances Nissan's sales to its dealerships (known as floor-plan financing). Under a new alliance agreement, Nissan and Renault will have cross-shareholding capped at 15% voting rights for each company. Renault holds the remaining stake in Nissan through a French trust where the voting rights of such shares are "neutralized" for "most decisions" but retain the economic benefit.

Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) has issued a recall for over 29,501 F-150 Lightning Pickup Trucks over a suspension failure risk that could result in loss of the steering controls.
What Happened: The issue stems from a potential defect in the front control arm of the pickup truck's suspension, which could increase the risk of a crash, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said in a report released on May 27.
"The front upper control arm ball joint nut may not have been tightened properly, allowing the front upper control arm to detach from the knuckle assembly," the NHTSA report said.
The affected products include F150 Lightning Pickups sold from 2024-2025, the report said. "Dealers will inspect the upper control arm ball joint nut, and replace the nut and/or knuckle assembly, as necessary, free of charge," NHTSA reiterated in its report.
Why It Matters: The recall comes in as the Detroit-based automaker issued a separate recall that affected almost <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45643704/ford-recalls-11-million-vehicles-for-camera-software-issue-report">1.1 million vehicles</a> due to an issue with the rear camera. The issue affected models include Bronco, F-150, Ford Escape, the Mustang Mach-E and multiple Lincoln models, among others.
Elsewhere, Bill Ford, the automaker's executive chair, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45732185/whats-going-on-with-ford-stock-monday-2">shared concerns</a> about the GOP's tax reform proposal, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45277309/house-gop-representatives-want-to-axe-federal-ev-credit-amid-trumps-tax-cuts-report">includes axing the $7500 EV credit</a>, could "imperil" the company's battery production in Michigan.
Ford has also reportedly opened doors for the company's flagship <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45562915/ford-will-let-nissan-use-part-of-kentucky-battery-factory-could-this-be-a-scaling-back-on-ev-ambitions">EV battery production plant </a>in Kentucky for Nissan Motor Co. Ltd., letting the Japanese automaker use half of the plant.

Ford Recalls Over 29,500 F-150 Lightning Pickup Trucks Over Suspension Defect

Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) is recalling over 1 million U.S. vehicles due to a software issue that may prevent rearview camera images from displaying properly, raising crash risks, according to federal regulators.
Reuters reported that the recall affects 1,075,299 vehicles across various models from 2021 to 2025, including the Bronco, F-150, Edge, Escape, Corsair, Mustang Mach-E, and several F-Series, Transit, and Lincoln models.
The <a href="https://www.nhtsa.gov/?nhtsaId=25V315000">National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)</a> said the defect stems from a software error that can cause the camera display to freeze, delay, or fail.

Dealers will update the dashboard&#8217;s accessory protocol interface module (APIM) software via an over-the-air fix at no cost. Ford will begin notifying owners by mail on June 16, with a follow-up notice expected once the fix is available in Q3 2025.
Separately, Ford <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45562915/ford-will-let-nissan-use-part-of-kentucky-battery-factory-could-this-be-a-scaling-back-on-ev-ambitions" rel="noreferrer noopener">agreed</a> to let Nissan (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>) use part of its underutilized battery plant in Kentucky, co-owned with SK On. This comes amid mounting pressure: Ford pulled its 2025 earnings guidance, warned of $5.5 billion in expected EV and software losses, and raised prices on Mexico-built EVs like the Mustang Mach-E and Bronco Sport.
In early May, Ford <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45406568/fords-brake-line-issue-spurs-recall-of-over-270k-vehicles-as-safety-concerns-mount" rel="noreferrer noopener">recalled</a> nearly 274,000 SUVs, 223,315 Expeditions and 50,474 Navigators, due to a brake line defect that increased crash risk. The issue, traced to Ford&#8217;s Kentucky Truck Plant, involved brake lines potentially contacting engine components. As of April, no injuries were reported. Ford notified owners and instructed them to bring vehicles for inspection and repair.
Price Action: F shares are trading lower by 0.09% to $10.30 premarket at last check Wednesday.

Ford Recalls 1.1 Million Vehicles For Camera Software Issue: Report

General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) is steadily gaining on Tesla Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) lead in the U.S. domestic EV market, despite the Trump administration's automotive tariffs.
What Happened: GM accounted for over 14.4% of all new EVs sold in the U.S. in April 2025, data released by Cox Automotive <a href="https://www.coxautoinc.com/market-insights/ev-market-monitor-april-2025/">on</a> Wednesday shows. The Detroit-based automaker is currently the second-largest EV manufacturer by units sold through Chevrolet, GMC, and Cadillac after it surpassed Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>).
Amid GM's sales growth, Elon Musk's Tesla still claimed the top spot in April with sales climbing 3.7%, driven by the Model Y, which sold 25,321 units, the report suggested. However, its market share remained below 50%.
Why It Matters: The data comes in as EV sales have experienced a decline in the U.S. The automaker has reportedly pushed back against<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45488137/general-motors-wants-to-overturn-californias-aggressive-ev-mandate-as-demand-slows-in-the-us-report"> California's EV policy</a>, which aims to phase out ICE vehicles by 2035.
"Emissions standards that are not aligned with market realities pose a serious threat to our business by undermining consumer choice and vehicle affordability," GM said in an email sent out to employees.
The automaker also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/guidance/25/05/45133096/this-is-how-much-it-will-cost-general-motors-from-trumps-tariff-policy">pulled its earnings guidance </a>for 2025, citing uncertainties posed by U.S. President Donald Trump's automotive tariffs. Elsewhere in the EV sector, GM's fellow Detroit-based automaker, Ford, has reportedly decided to split its flagship Kentucky battery manufacturing facility with Nissan Motor Co. Ltd. (OTCPK: NSANY).
Price Action: GM currently trades for $49.66 in after-hours trading, according to<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard"> Benzinga Pro data</a>.

GM EV Sales Surge In The US Despite Donald Trump's Auto Tariffs

Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) will reportedly let Nissan Motor Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>) use part of its flagship Kentucky battery manufacturing plant.
What Happened: The Detroit-based automaker will split the manufacturing plant, which is a joint venture between Ford and South Korean battery manufacturer SK On, according to the Wall Street Journal <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/ev-ford-nissan-battery-plant-lease-ef47542c">on</a> Tuesday.
The facility, which was to be used by Ford and its subsidiary Lincoln, has two manufacturing units, but one of them isn't being utilized at all, while the other isn't running at full capacity, the report suggests.
Ford had previously projected a loss of over $5.5 billion for its EV models and software operations in 2025 as tariffs continue to hinder the company's supply chain.
Ford and Nissan did not immediately respond to<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com"> Benzinga's</a> request for comment.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as Ford pulled <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45208083/ford-stock-hits-the-brakes-after-q1-earnings-suspends-guidance-due-to-tariff-related-uncertainty">its earnings guidance</a> for 2025, citing uncertainty in the auto industry due to U.S. President Donald Trump's automotive tariffs.
The company has also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45277938/ford-hikes-prices-of-select-mexico-produced-vehicles-amid-auto-tariff-uncertainty-report">hiked prices </a>of select Mexico-produced EVs, including the Mustang Mach-E, Bronco Sport and Maverick Pickup truck. The hike would apply to models arriving in dealerships sometime in June. It's worth noting that Ford manufactures over 80% of its line-up in the U.S.
Company CEO Jim Farley had earlier said that the Trump administration's tariffs could cost the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45217767/ford-ceo-jim-farley-says-trumps-tariffs-could-cost-ford-1-5-billion-pulls-its-earnings-guidance">over $1.5 billion</a>. "We&#8217;ve estimated the gross impact of tariffs for full year total company EBIT of $2.5 billion and a net impact of $1.5 billion," he said.
Price action: F currently trades for $10.48 on the NYSE, according to<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard"> Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Ford Reportedly Opens Doors To Nissan At Flagship Battery Facility After EV Unit Falls Short Of Targets

Nissan Motor Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANF#OTC">NSANF</a>) announced major steps to reconfigure its global operations after a challenging financial year. The company said on Tuesday that it will slash thousands of jobs and close almost half of its production plants across the globe, as part of a multi-year restructuring plan targeted towards stabilizing its bottom line.
What Happened: The company shared plans to terminate nearly 15% of its workforce, which entails approximately 20,000 employees, by fiscal year 2027. This includes the 9,000 job cuts announced earlier. In addition, Nissan will also shrink its global manufacturing footprint, reducing the number of factories from 17 to 10 over two years.
Last week, reports emerged that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45316137/nissan-scraps-11-billion-ev-battery-plant-eyes-cost-cuts-to-survive-report">company is canceling its plans</a> to establish a $1.1 billion electric vehicle battery factory in Kitakyushu, Japan.

Why It Matters: Nissan faced a $4.5 billion loss in 2024, citing rising variable costs and ongoing global turmoil. "In the face of challenging FY24 performance and rising variable costs, compounded by an uncertain environment, we must prioritize self-improvement with greater urgency and speed," said CEO Ivan Espinosa. The company also noted it would prioritize U.S.-made products and move operations to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45316137/nissan-scraps-11-billion-ev-battery-plant-eyes-cost-cuts-to-survive-report">sidestep tariff-related pressures</a>.
"We are taking a prudent approach to reassess our targets and actively seek every possible opportunity to implement and ensure a robust recovery," Espinosa added.
Nissan was not the only major company to announce layoffs on Tuesday. Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) shared on the same day that it will cut <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45398101/microsoft-to-cut-6000-jobs-in-global-restructuring-joins-meta-and-amazon-in-trimming-workforce-amid-ai-driven-shift">6,000 jobs worldwide</a>, amounting to about 3% of its total workforce.
Price Action: Nissan Motor stock closed at 354 JPY ($2.42) on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on Wednesday, down 0.70% for the day. Year to date, the stock has declined 25.44%.

Nissan To Cut 20,000 Jobs, Shut 7 Plants Globally In Major Restructuring After $4.5 Billion Annual Loss

Nissan Motor Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>) reportedly announced Friday that it is scrapping plans to build a $1.1 billion electric vehicle battery plant in Kitakyushu, Japan.
Nissan has canceled plans to build an EV battery plant in Kitakyushu months after signing local agreements. The company cited a review of investments due to weak performance, reported <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Automobiles/Nissan-abandons-plan-for-EV-battery-plant-in-southern-Japan" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Nikkie Asia</a>.
Initially unveiled in January, the lithium iron phosphate (LFP) facility was expected to create around 500 jobs with a 153.3 billion yen investment.

Facing sluggish vehicle sales in the U.S. and China, Nissan is scaling back growth plans to stabilize its business. Executive Officer Teiji Hirata said, &#8220;We apologize for this situation arising over such a short period of time. This is the result of a careful review in light of the business environment.&#8221;
Nissan announced that it expects a record net loss of 700–750 billion Japanese Yen ($4.9 billion to $5.3 billion) for fiscal 2025, mainly due to over 500 billion Japanese Yen in asset write-downs and 60 billion Japanese Yen in restructuring costs. In response, it is cutting jobs, closing plants, and reducing output, while CEO Ivan Espinosa pointed to strong cash reserves of 1.5 trillion Yen to support recovery efforts.
In February, Honda Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) signaled it could resume $58 billion <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43771894/honda-open-to-reviving-nissan-merger-talks-if-ceo-uchida-steps-down-creating-fourth-largest-glob" rel="noreferrer noopener">merger</a> talks with Nissan if CEO Makoto Uchida steps down, after prior talks collapsed over ownership terms.

Auto stocks hit a speed bump after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">President Donald Trump</a> brushed off concerns over higher car prices following his announcement of new 25% tariffs on foreign imports.
Shares of Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), Honda Motor Co Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>), Nissan Motor Co Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#NYSE">NSANY</a>), Volkswagen AG (OTCPK: VWAGY) and Stellantis NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) slid on investor concerns over the impact on global supply chains and consumer demand.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Trump's Tariff Play</h2>
Trump's weekend interview with NBC News only added fuel to the fire, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/auto-stocks-fall-after-trump-says-he-couldnt-care-less-about-higher-prices-21cd7c16">reported</a> the Wall Street Journal. When asked if foreign automakers hiking prices would hurt U.S. consumers, he dismissed the concern outright. "I couldn't care less."
The logic? If foreign cars get more expensive, Americans will buy domestic. That stance sent ripples through the markets, with Asian and European automakers posting sharp declines.
In Japan, Toyota dropped 3.1%, Honda fell 3.1%, and Nissan tumbled 4%. South Korea's Hyundai slipped 3.8%; in Europe, Stellantis lost 2.8%, Volkswagen declined 3.1%, and Mercedes-Benz slid 2.6%. Even Ferrari NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RACE#NYSE">RACE</a>) felt the heat, dropping 1.7% despite plans to hike prices by up to 10% to offset tariffs.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is This A Buying Opportunity?</h2>
Auto stocks have been in reverse all year, and technical indicators don't offer much encouragement. Toyota&#8217;s stock is flashing strong bearish signals, trading below its 5-, 20-, 50- and 200-day moving averages. The same goes for Honda and Stellantis stocks, both caught in a downtrend and facing selling pressure.
Even Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock, often seen as insulated from traditional automaker woes, is down over 30% YTD. But unlike its global peers, Tesla has found some support, sitting slightly above its eight and 20-day moving averages—a rare bullish signal amid the carnage.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Road Ahead</h2>
With tariffs kicking in on April 2, the next few weeks could be bumpy for auto stocks. If global carmakers pass the costs to consumers, demand could take a hit, further pressuring share prices.
However, investors with a long-term view might find bargains in the wreckage, particularly among companies able to navigate price adjustments without losing market share.
For now, auto stocks remain in the danger zone. But contrarians might find value under the hood if prices fall much further.

Auto Stocks Skid After Trump Shrugs Off Higher Prices - Should You Buy The Dip?

The newly imposed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44517885/trump-slaps-25-tariffs-on-autos-what-it-means-for-your-next-car-purchase">25% auto tariff</a> threatens to disrupt the global automotive industry, with analysts warning of sharp price increases and declining sales.
Goldman Sachs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44515578/trumps-25-tariff-set-to-hike-imported-car-prices-up-to-15000-higher-goldman-sachs-warns">estimates that imported </a>vehicle prices could rise by $5,000 to $15,000, while even U.S.-built cars could see cost hikes of $3,000 to $8,000 due to foreign-made parts. Here&#8217;s what analysts have predicted so far:
<ul>
<li>According to JPMorgan's Akira Kishimoto, Japanese automakers could face a potential hit of 4.46 trillion yen (about $29.44 billion), with Nissan Motor Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>), Mazda Motor Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAY#OTC">MZDAY</a>) and Subaru (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FUJHY#OTC">FUJHY</a>) among the most vulnerable due to their reliance on imported vehicles. Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) remains JPMorgan's top pick, given its resilience and strong fundamentals, while Suzuki Motor (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SZKMY#OTC">SZKMY</a>) and Isuzu Motors (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ISUZY#OTC">ISUZY</a>) are also favored among mid-tier manufacturers.

<li>RBC Capital Markets&#8217; Tom Narayan warns that German automakers like Mercedes-Benz Group (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MBGYY#OTC">MBGYY</a>) and BMW Group (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWKY#OTC">BMWKY</a>) are at high risk, though potential retaliatory tariffs from Europe could deter further escalation. Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) may benefit due to its U.S.-based production, while Ferrari NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RACE#NYSE">RACE</a>) is expected to pass costs onto its high-end buyers. </li>
<li>JPMorgan autos analyst Ryan Brinkman has slashed price targets for major U.S. automakers, cutting General Motors Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) by 17% to $53 from $64, Ford Motor Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) by 15% to $11 from $13, and Ferrari by 12% to $460 from $525, citing heightened earnings risk. </li>
</ul>
With uncertainty around auto demand and the potential for sales fluctuations, investors remain cautious as the industry assesses the economic impact of these sweeping tariffs.

Japanese Automakers Face $29 Billion Tariff Hit, Nissan, Mazda, Subaru Most At Risk, Says Analyst

As of March 19, 2025, two stocks in the consumer discretionary sector could be flashing a real warning to investors who value momentum as a key criteria in their trading decisions.
The RSI is a momentum indicator, which compares a stock&#8217;s strength on days when prices go up to its strength on days when prices go down. When compared to a stock&#8217;s price action, it can give traders a better sense of how a stock may perform in the short term. An asset is typically considered overbought when the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/rsi"> RSI is above 70</a>, according to<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/"> Benzinga Pro</a>. 
Here's the latest list of major overbought players in this sector.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Honda Motor Co Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>)</h3>
<ul>
<li>On Feb. 13, the company reported results for nine months and disclosed the termination of business integration talks with Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>). The company disclosed the cancellation of the previously inked memorandum of understanding (MOU) for business integration with Nissan Motor. The company's stock gained around 12% over the past month and has a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/HMC">52-week high of $37.90</a>.</li>
<li>RSI Value: 71.5&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>HMC Price Action: Shares of Honda Motor gained 1.4% to close at $30.41 on Tuesday.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Yum China Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/YUMC#NYSE">YUMC</a>)</h3>
<ul>
<li>On March 10, Yum China named Adrian Ding as Chief Financial Officer. &#8220;We are delighted to announce Adrian&#8217;s appointment as our CFO. Over the last five months, he has made significant contributions, proving himself as the ideal candidate to serve as the Chief Financial Officer of Yum China.

Top 2 Consumer Stocks That May Implode In Q1

Honda Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) is willing to resume merger negotiations with Nissan Motor Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>) if CEO Makoto Uchida steps down. 
What Happened: The potential combination would create the world&#8217;s fourth-largest automaker, though previous talks collapsed over Honda&#8217;s demand for full ownership rather than an equal partnership, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/bddf8c35-5594-49f1-9855-674ba449514b">reported</a> Financial Time, citing sources.
Uchida, who faces pressure to depart after the failed $58 billion deal, has expressed willingness to leave before his planned 2026 exit if asked, though he prefers to stay until Nissan&#8217;s recovery. 
The company faces mounting challenges, having burned through ¥506 billion ($6.6 billion) in the first nine months of its fiscal year despite holding ¥1.2 trillion ($15.65 billion) in net cash.

Renault (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RNLSY#OTC">RNLSY</a>), which owns 36% of Nissan, is exploring options to sell its stake at a premium. 
Mizuho Financial Group, Nissan&#8217;s main bank, is actively seeking funding solutions involving private equity groups to support the automaker&#8217;s liquidity needs.
The top three automakers by global sales are Toyota Motor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), Volkswagen AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VWAGY#OTC">VWAGY</a>), and Stellantis NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>), followed by Ford Motor Co.

Honda Open To Reviving Nissan Merger Talks If CEO Uchida Steps Down, Creating Fourth-Largest Global Automaker

Honda Motor Company, Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) shares are trading higher on Thursday. The company reported results for nine months and <a href="https://global.honda/en/newsroom/news/2025/c250213aeng.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">disclosed </a>the termination of business integration talks with Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>).
The company disclosed the cancellation of the previously inked memorandum of understanding (MOU) for business <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/02/43517930/nissan-ceo-seeks-to-end-honda-merger-talks-report" rel="noreferrer noopener">integration with Nissan Motor.</a>
Notably, last December, both companies confirmed their merger plans at a joint press conference and said they aim for a&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42653466/honda-nissan-plan-to-merge-in-the-face-of-chinese-ev-competition" rel="noreferrer noopener">completion date of August 2026</a>.
The companies were considering including&nbsp;Mitsubishi Motors in the new consolidated company. If successful, the merger would have created the world&#8217;s third-largest automobile group based on global sales volume.&nbsp;
Since signing the MOU, both companies&#8217; management teams, including their CEOs, have evaluated the market environment, integration objectives, and post-merger strategies.
They also conducted consultations with key stakeholders before making the decision to discontinue the discussions.
During discussions, Honda proposed shifting from the initially outlined joint holding company—where it would appoint the majority of directors and the CEO—to a structure in which Honda would become the parent company and Nissan the subsidiary through a share exchange.
However, both companies determined that, given the need for rapid decision-making and execution in an increasingly volatile market driven by electrification, it was best to terminate the MOU.
Moving forward, Nissan and Honda plan to collaborate through a strategic partnership focused on intelligence and electrified vehicles.
With the termination of the deal, the private equity firm KKR &amp; Co. Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KKR#NYSE">KKR</a>) is reportedly planning to invest in&nbsp;Nissan, as <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-02-13/kkr-is-said-to-consider-nissan-investment-after-honda-talks-end?srnd=homepage-asia&amp;sref=TBDibEcD" rel="noreferrer noopener">per </a>Bloomberg.
Also, Foxconn Technology Group confirmed Wednesday it would consider acquiring Renault&#8217;s stake in&nbsp;Nissan as part of a broader strategy to expand its&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43685566/apple-supplier-foxconn-considers-buying-nissan-shares-but-only-if-an-ev-deal-is-in-place" rel="noreferrer noopener">electric vehicle manufacturing business</a>.
HMC Results: In a separate release, Honda reported nine-month EPS of JPY169.69 (Japanese yen) ($1.1142), lower than JPY176.78 in the comparable period, while sales of<a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/43689697"> JPY16.3 trillion rose 8.9% year over year.</a>
The company maintained its guidance for an operating profit of JPY1.420 trillion and a profit attributable to owners of the parent company of JPY950 billion.
Meanwhile, Honda raised the guidance for FY25 sales by JPY600 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">billion to JPY21.600 trillion</a>.
Price Action: HMC shares are up 2.56% at $28.29 at the last check Thursday.

Earlier Nissan, Honda Announced Termination Of MOU For Consideration Of Business Integration

Foxconn Technology Group, also known as Hon Hai Precision (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HNHPF#OTC">HNHPF</a>)  Apple Inc.&#8216;s primary iPhone manufacturer, confirmed Wednesday it would consider acquiring Renault&#8217;s stake in Nissan Motor Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>) as part of a broader strategy to expand its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/02/43566305/deal-dispatch-pharmchem-forgoes-banker-to-run-sale-tgi-fridays-sells-19-restaurants-for-3-1-million">electric vehicle manufacturing business</a>.
What Happened: Chairman Young Liu revealed the company has held discussions about acquiring Nissan shares, though emphasized that any potential stake purchase would be contingent on securing EV manufacturing partnerships with either Nissan or Renault, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/f6a9cfb0-edba-4336-a2c1-e67238c5ccea">reported</a> the Financial Times. 
&#8220;If [taking a stake] is necessary for co-operation, we will consider it, but buying shares is not our main goal,&#8221; Liu said.
The Taiwanese contract manufacturer is targeting an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/02/43517930/nissan-ceo-seeks-to-end-honda-merger-talks-report">announcement of a cooperation deal</a> within two months, with Renault, Nissan, and Honda Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) among potential partners. The news sent Nissan shares down 6.3% in Tokyo trading.

Why It Matters: This development comes as Renault looks to divest half of its 36% stake in Nissan, currently held in a French trust, following their alliance restructuring in 2023.
Former Nissan executive and current Foxconn EV division chief strategy officer Jun Seki reportedly met with Renault CEO Luca De Meo in December to discuss the potential share acquisition.
The talks emerge amid broader industry shifts, with Nissan <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/02/43517930/nissan-ceo-seeks-to-end-honda-merger-talks-report">recently ending merger discussions</a> with Honda that would have created the world&#8217;s fourth-largest automotive group.
Nissan faces mounting pressure from Chinese competition and has announced plans to cut 9,000 jobs and reduce production capacity by 20% as part of its turnaround strategy.
For Foxconn, securing a deal with either Renault or Nissan would mark its first partnership with a traditional automaker outside Taiwan, potentially accelerating its expansion into EV contract manufacturing beyond its current partnerships with startups.

Judge Christopher Lopez has rejected a deal that would have facilitated a second auction attempt for Alex Jones&#8216; media company, Infowars. This ruling, as reported by <a href="https://www.npr.org/2025/02/05/g-s1-46738/infowars-alex-jones-onion-bankruptcy-judge-sandy-hook">NPR</a>, provides another temporary reprieve for Jones, but delays the Sandy Hook families' efforts to collect the $1.3 billion in defamation damages awarded nearly seven years ago.
Lopez explained he couldn&#8217;t approve the deal because Infowars&#8217; parent company, Free Speech Systems (FSS), is no longer in bankruptcy. That means, he rules, its assets cannot be sold—only Jones&#8217; ownership stake in the company can be auctioned. And yet, the judge also blocked <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/24/11/41982446/jokes-on-jones-onion-backed-by-families-of-sandy-hook-victims-buys-info-wars">a previous offer</a> from satirical website The Onion, which had partnered with the Connecticut families to bid on Infowars. 
Moving forward, Lopez emphasized that any asset sale must be a straightforward cash deal. With this latest decision, the path to recovering damages—and potentially dismantling Jones' platform—remains uncertain.
TGI Fridays has sold 19 more restaurants as part of its ongoing Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings.&nbsp;Fremont, California-based Yadav Enterprises, an operator of 340 restaurants across six brands, is <a href="https://www.restaurantbusinessonline.com/financing/tgi-fridays-sells-19-restaurants-out-bankruptcy">buying</a> 16 stores for $3 million in debt.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Notes From The Block</h2>
Scale Vs. Scope: This week, Bain Capital pointed out a trend in the media sector.
Media deals are becoming &#8220;predominantly cross-industry.&#8221; According to Bain&#8217;s <a href="https://www.bain.com/insights/media-and-entertainment-m-and-a-report-2025/">analysis</a>, using data from Dealogic, more than half of all media industry M&amp;A for the first three quarters of 2024 involved either a target or acquirer outside of their industry.
Here are a few callouts, cited by Bain partners Nicole Magoon, Matt Keith and Alex Egan:
<ul>
<li>The majority of Walt Disney Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) transactions used to be &#8220;scale&#8221; (i.e., Pixar in 2006 and 21st Century Fox in 2019); today, there&#8217;s an &#8220;increasing emphasis on scope deals.&#8221; For example, last year, Disney invested in Epic Games, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/41052867/disneys-streaming-surge-epic-games-deal-among-key-growth-drivers-says-analyst">the maker of Fortnite</a>.</li>
<li>Sony Group Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SONY#NYSE">SONY</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/06/39313096/sony-steps-into-theater-business-with-alamo-drafthouse-purchase">purchased the theater-dinner chain</a> Alamo Drafthouse.</li>
<li>Companies are also doing deals for evergreen IP: Sony Music bought half of Michael Jackson's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/08/40515995/michael-jacksons-1-5b-catalog-lands-court-approval-for-sale-thriller-for-sony">publishing and recorded music catalog</a>.</li>
<li>Pophouse Entertainment acquired Kiss's catalog as well as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/04/38116031/sealed-with-a-kiss-rock-band-sells-legacy-for-300m-who-did-gene-simmons-get-into-bed-with">the band members' likenesses</a>. </li>
<li>Private equity funds have invested in smaller production studios with a track record of quality IP. For example, Redbird bought All3Media, seeking an enduring advantage in the video space.</li>
</ul>
Is there risk? &#8220;Acquirers in cross-sector media M&amp;A quickly learn that such deals require a different type of diligence,&#8221; the Bain partners say. &#8220;For one thing, an acquirer is likely to be less familiar with the target's industry. Also, the revenue synergies inherent in scope deals are harder to realize and underwrite than cost synergies.&#8221;

새로 부과된 미국의 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44517885/trump-slaps-25-tariffs-on-autos-what-it-means-for-your-next-car-purchase" target="_blank" rel="noopener">25% 자동차 관세</a>는 전 세계 자동차 산업을 혼란에 빠뜨리고 있다. 애널리스트들은 급격한 가격 인상과 판매 감소를 경고한다.
골드만삭스는 수입 자동차 가격이 5,000달러에서 15,000달러까지 상승할 수 있으며, 미국산 자동차도 외국산 부품으로 인해 3,000달러에서 8,000달러까지 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44515578/trumps-25-tariff-set-to-hike-imported-car-prices-up-to-15000-higher-goldman-sachs-warns" target="_blank" rel="noopener">가격이 인상될 수있다고 추정한다.</a>
지금까지 애널리스트들이 예측한 내용은 다음과 같다.
<ul>
<li>JP모건의 아키라 기시모토: 일본 자동차 제조업체들이 4.46조 엔(약 294억 4천만 달러)의 잠재적 타격을 받을 수 있다고 경고하며, 닛산 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>), 마쓰다 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAY#OTC">MZDAY</a>), 스바루(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FUJHY#OTC">FUJHY</a>)가 수입 차량 의존도로 인해 가장 취약하다고 말했다. 토요타 자동차(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>)는 강한 펀더멘털과 회복력 덕분에 JP모건의 최고 추천주로 남아 있으며, 스즈키(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SZKMY#OTC">SZKMY</a>)와 이스즈(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ISUZY#OTC">ISUZY</a>)도 중형 제조업체들 사이에서 선호되고 있다.</li>
<li>RBC 캐피탈 마켓의 톰 나라얀: 메르세데스-벤츠 그룹(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MBGYY#OTC">MBGYY</a>)과 BMW 그룹(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWKY#OTC">BMWKY</a>)이 높은 위험에 처해 있다고 경고했으며, 유럽의 보복 관세가 추가적인 격화를 저지할 수 있다고 말했다. 테슬라(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)는 미국 내 생산 덕분에 혜택을 볼 수 있으며, 페라리(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RACE#NYSE">RACE</a>)는 고급 구매자에게 비용을 전가할 것으로 예상된다.</li>
<li>JP모건의 자동차 애널리스트인 라이언 브링크맨: 주요 미국 자동차 제조업체들의 목표주가를 하향 조정하며, 제너럴 모터스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>)의 목표주가를 64달러에서 53달러로 17% 낮추고, 포드 자동차(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) 목표주가는 13달러에서 11달러로 15% 하향했으며, 페라리 목표주가는 525달러에서 460달러로 12% 하향 조정했다고 밝혔다.</li>
</ul>
자동차 수요에 대한 불확실성과 판매 변동 가능성으로 인해 투자자들은 이 광범위한 관세의 경제적 영향을 평가하는 동안 신중한 태도를 유지하고 있다.

혼다(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>)는 우치다 마코토 닛산 CEO가 물러난다면 닛산 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>)와 합병 협상을 재개할 의향이 있다.
무슨 일 있었나: 파이낸셜타임스는 소식통을 인용해 이전에 동등한 파트너십이 아닌 완전한 소유권에 대한 혼다의 요구로 인해 논의가 무산되었지만 혼다와 닛산의 잠재적 합병으로 세계 4위 자동차 제조사가 탄생할 수 있다고 <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/bddf8c35-5594-49f1-9855-674ba449514b" target="_blank" rel="noopener">보도했다</a>.
580억 달러 규모의 합병 거래 실패 이후 퇴진 압박을 받고 있는 우치다 마코토 닛산 CEO는 닛산이 회복 궤도에 오를 때까지 남아 있기를 원하지만, 요청이 있다면 2026년 퇴진 계획 이전에 퇴진할 의향이 있다고 밝혔다.
닛산은 1조 2000억 엔(156억 5000만 달러)의 순현금을 보유하고 있음에도 불구하고 회계연도 첫 9개월 동안 5060억 엔(66억 달러)을 소진하는 등 점점 더 많은 어려움에 직면하고 있다.
왜 중요한가: 폭스콘이 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43685566/apple-supplier-foxconn-considers-buying-nissan-shares-but-only-if-an-ev-deal-is-in-place" target="_blank" rel="noopener">닛산 주식 인수에 관심을 표명</a>하는 동안 KKR &amp; Co. 및 미국 자동차 제조업체를 포함한 다른 잠재 투자자들은 기회를 평가하고 있다. 닛산의 36%를 소유하고 있는 르노(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RNLSY#OTC">RNLSY</a>)는 지분을 프리미엄으로 매각하는 옵션을 모색하고 있다.
닛산의 주거래 은행인 미즈호 파이낸셜 그룹은 닛산의 유동성 수요를 지원하기 위해 사모펀드 그룹이 참여하는 자금 조달 솔루션을 적극적으로 모색하고 있다.
스태티스타(Statista) 데이터에 따르면 글로벌 판매량 기준 상위 3개 자동차 제조업체는 토요타(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), 폭스바겐(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VWAGY#OTC">VWAGY</a>) 그리고 스텔란티스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>)이며, 그 다음은 포드(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>)와 제너럴모터스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>)가 뒤를 잇고 있다.
주가 움직임: 혼다 주가는 화요일(18일) 현재 도쿄거래소에서 0.46% 상승한 1,430엔에서 거래되고 있고, 닛산 주가는 4.08% 상승한 441엔에 거래되고 있다.

폭스콘 테크놀로지 그룹(Hon Hai Precision)(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HNHPF#OTC">HNHPF</a>)은 애플의 주요 아이폰 제조업체로, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/02/43566305/deal-dispatch-pharmchem-forgoes-banker-to-run-sale-tgi-fridays-sells-19-restaurants-for-3-1-million" target="_blank" rel="noopener">전기차 제조 사업</a>으로 확장하기 위한 광범위한 전략의 일환으로서 닛산 자동차에 대한 르노의 지분 인수를 고려할 것이라고 수요일(12일) 밝혔다.
무슨 일 있었나: 영 리우 폭스콘 회장은 회사가 닛산 주식 인수를 논의하고 있다고 밝혔지만, 잠재적 지분 매입은 닛산이나 르노와의 전기차 제조 파트너십 확보에 달려 있다고 강조했다고 파이낸셜타임스가 <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/f6a9cfb0-edba-4336-a2c1-e67238c5ccea" target="_blank" rel="noopener">보도했다</a>.
영 리우는 "협력에 지분 확보가 필요하다면 고려해 보겠지만, 주식 매입이 우리의 주요 목표는 아니다&#8221;라고 말했다.
폭스콘은 르노, 닛산, 혼다 자동차 등 잠재적 파트너들과 2개월 이내에 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/02/43517930/nissan-ceo-seeks-to-end-honda-merger-talks-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">협력 계약 체결을 발표</a>할 계획이다. 이 소식으로 도쿄 거래에서 닛산 주가는 6.3% 하락했다.
왜 중요한가: 르노가 2023년 제휴 구조 조정 이후 현재 프랑스 신탁에 보유하고 있는 닛산 지분 36%의 절반을 매각할 계획인 가운데, 이러한 움직임이 나타났다.
닛산의 전직 임원이며 현재 폭스콘의 전기차 사업부 최고전략책임자인 준 세키(Jun Seki)가 12월에 르노의 CEO인 루카 드 메오(Luca De Meo)를 만나 잠재적인 주식 인수를 논의한 것으로 알려졌다.
닛산이 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/02/43517930/nissan-ceo-seeks-to-end-honda-merger-talks-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">최근 세계 4위의 자동차 그룹을 만들 수 있는 혼다와의 합병 논의</a>를 종료한 가운데 폭스콘과의 논의가 이루어졌다.
닛산은 중국 경쟁업체의 압박이 커지고 있는 상황에서 경영 정상화 전략의 일환으로 9,000명의 일자리를 감축하고 생산 능력을 20% 줄이겠다는 계획을 발표했다.
폭스콘의 경우, 르노나 닛산과 계약을 체결하면 대만 이외의 전통적인 자동차 제조업체와 맺은 첫 번째 파트너십을 맺게 되며, 현재 신생 기업과의 파트너십을 넘어 전기 자동차 계약 제조로 사업을 확장할 수 있는 잠재력을 갖게 된다.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">파산 블록</h2>
판사 크리스토퍼 로페즈(Christopher Lopez)는 알렉스 존스(Alex Jones)의 미디어 회사 인포워스(Infowars)의 두 번째 경매 시도를 용이하게 하는 거래를 거부했다. NPR에 따르면 이 판결은 조에게 또 다른 임시 구제를 제공하지만, 샌디 훅 가족들이 거의 7년 전 부당성 손해배상으로 판결된 13억 달러를 회수하기 위한 노력을 지연시킨다.
로페즈 판사는 인포워스의 모회사인 프리 스피치 시스템(FSS)이 더 이상 파산 상태가 아니기 때문에 거래를 승인할 수 없다고 설명했다. 즉, 그의 판단에 따라 자산은 판매될 수 없으며, 오직 조의 회사 소유 지분만 경매에 부쳐질 수 있다. 그러나 판사는 또한 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/24/11/41982446/jokes-on-jones-onion-backed-by-families-of-sandy-hook-victims-buys-info-wars">이전 제안</a>을 차단했다. 이 제안은 풍자 웹사이트 디 어니언(The Onion)이 샌디 훅 희생자 가족들과 협력하여 인포워스에 입찰한 것이었다.
앞으로 로페즈는 모든 자산 판매는 간단한 현금 거래여야 한다고 강조했다. 이번 결정으로 손해배상 회수 및 조의 플랫폼 해체 가능성에 대한 경로는 여전히 불확실하다.
TGI 프라이데이는 11장소를 포함하여 19개의 추가 매장을 파산 보호 챕터 11 절차의 일환으로 매각했다. 캘리포니아 프리몬트에 본사를 둔 야다브 엔터프라이즈가 300만 달러의 부채로 16개 매장을 인수하고, 슈가로프 호스피텔리티, 전 TGI 프라이데이의 CEO 레이 블란셰트(Ray Blanchette) 소유의 회사가 3개 매장을 10만 달러에 인수하고 있다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">블록에서의 노트</h2>
규모 vs 범위: 이번 주 베인 캐피털은 미디어 부문에서의 트렌드를 지적했다.
미디어 거래가 &#8220;주로 산업 간 거래&#8221;가 되고 있다. 베인의 <a href="https://www.bain.com/insights/media-and-entertainment-m-and-a-report-2025/">분석</a>에 따르면, 딜로직(Dealogic)의 데이터를 사용하여 2024년 1~3분기 동안 모든 미디어 산업 M&amp;A의 절반 이상이 목표 또는 인수자가 자사 산업 외부에 있었던 것으로 나타났다.
여기 몇 가지 주목할 만한 사항들이 있다. 베인의 파트너인 니콜 마군, 매트 키스 및 알렉스 이건이 언급했다:
<ul>
<li>과거에는 월트 디즈니(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>)의 거래 대부분이 &#8220;규모&#8221; (즉, 2006년 Pixar 인수 및 2019년 21세기 폭스 인수)였으나, 현재는 &#8220;범위 거래&#8221;의 비중이 높아지고 있다. 예를 들어, 지난해 디즈니는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/41052867/disneys-streaming-surge-epic-games-deal-among-key-growth-drivers-says-analyst">포트나이트의 제작사</a> 에픽 게임즈에 투자했다.</li>
<li>소니 그룹(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SONY#NYSE">SONY</a>)는 알라모 드래프트하우스(Alamo Drafthouse)라는 극장-저녁 식사 체인을 인수했다.</li>
<li>기업들은 또한 지속 가능한 IP를 위한 거래를 진행하고 있다: 소니 뮤직은 마이클 잭슨의 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/08/40515995/michael-jacksons-1-5b-catalog-lands-court-approval-for-sale-thriller-for-sony">음악 및 저작권 카탈로그</a>의 절반을 인수했다.</li>
<li>팝하우스 엔터테인먼트(Pophouse Entertainment)는 키스(Kiss)의 카탈로그와 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/04/38116031/sealed-with-a-kiss-rock-band-sells-legacy-for-300m-who-did-gene-simmons-get-into-bed-with">밴드 멤버의 초상권</a>를 인수했다.</li>
<li>사모펀드들은 품질 있는 IP를 보유한 소규모 제작 스튜디오에 투자하고 있다. 예를 들어, 레드버드(Redbird)는 All3Media를 인수하여 영상 분야에서 지속적인 우위를 확보하고자 했다.</li>
</ul>
위험이 있을까? &#8220;산업 간 미디어 M&amp;A에서 인수자는 이러한 거래가 다른 유형의 실사를 요구한다는 것을 빠르게 배운다&#8221;고 베인의 파트너들이 말한다. &#8220;첫째, 인수자는 목표 산업에 덜 익숙할 가능성이 높다. 또한, 범위 거래에 내재된 수익 시너지는 비용 시너지보다 실현하고 평가하기가 더 어렵다.&#8221;

닛산 자동차 CEO, 혼다 자동차에 합병 협상 종료를 통보: 보도

금요일에 스텔란티스 NV(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>)와 폭스바겐 AG(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VWAGY#OTC">VWAGY</a>)를 포함한 유럽 자동차 제조사들의 주가가 고전했다. 이는 일부 플러그인 하이브리드 전기차(PHEV)가 조 바이든 대통령의 인플레이션 감축법(IRA)에 따라 이번 주부터 미국 세금 공제 혜택을 잃었기 때문이다.
도널드 트럼프 대통령 당선인은 바이든의 친전기차(EV) 정책을 공격하고 외국산 자동차에 대한 관세를 위협했다. 이는 테슬라 CEO이자 주요 트럼프 지지자인 일론 머스크가 지지한 바 있다.
머스크는 또한 모든 정부 보조금, EV, 석유 및 가스에 대한 보조금 포함에 반대하는 입장을 표명했다. 한편, 테슬라(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)의 사이버트럭은 이제 $7,500의 전기차 소비자 세금 공제 자격을 얻었다.

블룸버그에 따르면, 폭스바겐의 ID.4 전기 크로스오버 SUV는 전체 세금 공제를 잃었다고 블룸버그가 에너지부와 환경보호청을 <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-03/stellantis-volkswagen-drop-after-losing-us-electric-car-subsidy?srnd=phx-industries&amp;sref=TBDibEcD" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">인용</a>하여 보도했다.
닛산 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANF#OTC">NSANF</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>)와 스텔란티스 모델도 미국 세금 공제 혜택을 잃었다.
현재 18개의 EV와 플러그인 하이브리드 모델이 세금 공제 자격을 갖추고 있으며, 2024년에는 22개 모델이 자격을 갖출 것으로 예상된다.
폭스바겐은 미국에서 스카우트(Scout) 배터리 전기 SUV 라인으로 오랫동안 고군분투해 왔으며, 유럽에서 성장세가 둔화되고 중국에서 경쟁이 심화되었다. VWAGY 주가는 지난 12개월 동안 28% 하락했다.
스텔란티스 주가는 지난 12개월 동안 43% 하락했다. 이는 제품 지연과 미국 내 재고 과잉으로 인한 것이다. 이탈리아의 승용차 생산은 2024년에 46% 감소했으며, 전기 피아트 500과 같은 모델이 시장에서 주목받지 못했다.
애널리스트들은 2024년 미국 신차 판매가 재고와 인센티스에 힘입어 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42782741/ahead-of-tesla-stellantis-reporting-final-sales-numbers-analysts-predict-new-car-sales-in-2024-expected-to-h" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">1,580만 대</a>를 초과할 것으로 예상한다. 또한, EV 판매가 130만 대에 이를 것으로 예상되며, 소비자들이 새로운 정부 하의 세금 공제 변경 가능성 전에 세금 공제를 받으려 서둘러 움직일 것이다.
주가 변동: 스텔란티스 주가는 금요일 1.96% 하락 $12.53에 마감했다.

스텔란티스, 폭스바겐 주식이 미국 전기차 세금 공제가 사라지면서 어려움에 직면

전 세계적으로 전기차로의 전환이 진행되고 있는 가운데, &#8216;전기차의 대부&#8217;로 불리는 앤디 팔머는 자동차 제조사들에게 경고를 보냈다. 그는 완전 전기차보다 하이브리드 차량을 우선시하는 전략은 중국 경쟁업체에 뒤처질 수 있다고 경고했다.
무슨 일 있었나: 전 애스턴 마틴 CEO이자 닛산 임원 출신인 팔머는 비야디(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) 같은 중국 자동차 제조업체가 전기 자동차 시장에서 빠르게 발전하고 있음을 강조했다. 이 회사들은 비용 효율적이고 기술적으로 진보된 차량을 제공함으로써 국내에서 상당한 입지를 확보했다.
팔머는 "중국 자동차는 정말 훌륭하다&#8221;며 &#8220;가격 대비 놀라운 가치를 제공한다&#8221;고 말했다.
또한 중국 브랜드가 배터리 기술과 소프트웨어에서 뛰어나며 탁월한 가치를 제공한다고도 지적했다.
팔머는 중국 정부가 2009년 이후 2,300억 달러 이상의 보조금을 투자한 전략적 산업 정책 덕분에 전기차 부문에서 성공을 거둘 수 있었다고 말했다. 그는 닛산과 합작한 둥펑자동차에서 근무하는 동안 중국의 공격적인 전기차 전략을 직접 목격했다고 한다.
중국의 부상에 대응하여 미국과 유럽은 자국 산업을 보호하기 위해 관세를 부과했다. 그러나 팔머는 이러한 관세가 서구 제조사의 경쟁력을 저해할 수 있다고 주장했다.
"내 경험에 따르면 관세는 토착 기업들을 게으르게 만들 뿐이고, 격차는 더 커진다&#8221;고 했다.
팔머는 서구의 자동차 제조업체들이 중국 기업과의 치열한 경쟁에 대비할 것을 촉구하며, 특히 비야디와 샤오펑 같은 기업이 확장하고 있는 유럽에서 대비해야 한다고 강조했다.

왜 중요한가: 글로벌 전기 자동차 환경은 빠르게 진화하고 있으며, 중국이 이를 주도하고 있다. 9월의 보고서에 따르면 중국 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/09/40886450/50-of-new-car-sales-in-china-are-electric-but-in-the-us-its-only-10-are-protectionist-policies-widen">신차 판매의 50%가</a> 전기차인 반면, 미국은 10%에 불과하다. 이러한 격차는 최근 전기 자동차에 대한 100% 세금을 포함한 중국 제품에 대한 바이든 행정부의 관세 등 보호주의 정책의 영향을 나타낸다.
11월, 중국은 중국산 전기차에 대한 유럽연합(EU)의 관세에 대해 세계무역기구(WTO)에 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41754367/china-escalates-trade-dispute-lodges-complaint-with-wto-over-european-ev-tariffs">공식적으로 제소</a>함으로써 유럽연합과의 무역 분쟁을 격화시켰다. 중국산 전기차에 최대 35%의 관세를 부과하기로 한 EU의 결정은 불공정한 비즈니스 관행에 대한 대응으로 여겨졌다.
한편, 비야디는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39617169/byd-set-to-surpass-tesla-in-bev-sales-by-2024-as-china-leads-global-market-growth-report">2024년까지</a> 전기차 판매량 21% 증가와 중국에서의 강력한 시장 전망에 힘입어 순수전기차(BEV) 판매량에서 테슬라를 능가할 것으로 예상하고 있다.

혼다 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HNDAF#OTC">HNDAF</a>) 주가는 화요일(24일) 도쿄 증시에서 13% 넘게 급등했다. 이는 일본 자동차 제조사 혼다가 대규모 자사주 매입을 발표하고, 닛산 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>)와의 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42642773/honda-nissan-start-merger-talks">합병 논의</a>를 확인한 이후 2008년 이후 최대 일간 상승폭을 기록했다.
혼다 주가는 도쿄 거래소에서 1,452엔으로 급등한 반면, 닛산 주가는 화요일 거래에서 0.22% 소폭 하락한 449엔을 기록했다. 미국 증시에 상장된 혼다(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) 주식은 앞서 월요일(23일)에 상승세로 거래되어 당일 12.72% 상승한 26.93달러에 마감했다. 시간외 거래에서는 추가로 2.94% 상승했다.
혼다는 2025년 12월까지 발행 주식의 약 24%에 해당하는 최대 1조 1,000억 엔(70억 달러) 상당의 자사주를 매입할 계획이다. 이번 자사주매입은 지난 11월 1,000억 엔 규모의 자사주 매입 계획을 크게 초과하는 수준이다.
일본의 두 거대 자동차 기업인 닛산과 혼다가 합병을 위한 공식 협상을 시작했으며, 이를 통해 판매량 기준 세계 3위의 자동차 제조업체가 탄생할 수 있다.
두 회사는 2025년 6월까지 합병 논의를 마무리할 예정이다. 닛산의 기존 전략적 파트너인 미쓰비시 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MMTOF#OTC">MMTOF</a>)는 1월까지 합병 법인에 합류할지 여부를 결정해야 한다.

혼다, 닛산과 합병 및 자사주매입으로 주가 13% 이상 급등

수요일(18일) 도쿄에서 닛산 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>) 주가는 혼다 자동차(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>)와 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/12/42541842/japanese-auto-giants-nissan-honda-eye-merger-says-nikkei">합병 논의가 보도된 후</a> 22.54% 급등했다. 반면에 혼다의 주가는 2% 하락하고 있다.
보도에 따르면 두 자동차 제조업체는 닛산이 24% 지분을 보유한 미쓰비시 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MMTOF#OTC">MMTOF</a>) 포함해 지주사 구조 하에서 합병을 모색하고 있으며, 곧 양해각서가 체결될 것으로 예상된다. 미쓰비시 자동차 주가는 이 글을 쓰는 시점에 도쿄에서 13% 이상 상승한 채 거래되고 있다.
합병이 완료되면 닛산-혼다-미쓰비시 통합 그룹은 연간 판매량이 800만 대를 넘어 세계 최대 자동차 제조업체 중 하나가 될 수 있다. 하지만 2023년에는 1,120만 대를 판매한 토요타 자동차(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), 920만 대를 판매한 독일의 폭스바겐 AG에는 미치지 못할 것으로 보인다.
올해 들어 닛산 주가는 28.3% 하락한 412엔(2.68달러)에 거래되고 있으며, 혼다 주가는 15.7% 하락한 1,270엔(8.27달러)에 거래되고 있다. 한편, 미쓰비시 자동차 주가는 올해 1.49% 상승한 463엔(3.01달러)에 거래 중이다.

혼다와 합병 협상 보도 이후 닛산 주가 20% 급등, 미쓰비시도 동반 상승세

일본 자동차 제조업체 닛산 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>)와 혼다 자동차(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>)가 합병 협상을 진행 중이라는 소식이 전해졌다. 이는 <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Automobiles/Honda-and-Nissan-to-begin-merger-talks-amid-EV-competition" target="_blank" rel="noopener">화요일 닛케이 신문에 의해 처음 공개</a>되었으며, 두 회사가 지주사 아래 통합하고 미쓰비시 자동차도 포함할 것으로 알려졌다.
알아야 할 내용: 닛케이에 따르면 닛산-혼다-미쓰비시 통합 그룹의 연간 자동차 판매량은 800만 대 이상으로 <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/267274/worldwide-vehicle-sales-of-toyota-since-2007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">최대 자동차 제조사 중 한 곳</a>이 될 수 있지만, 토요타 자동차의 1,120만 대와 폭스바겐의 920만 대에는 미치지 못할 것으로 보인다.
<a href="//www.cnbc.com/2024/12/17/japans-honda-and-nissan-to-reportedly-begin-merger-talks.html"" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CNBC</a> 보도에 따르면 닛산과 혼다는 앞서 최종 결정 없이 협력 기회를 모색 중이라며 해당 보도에 대한 확인을 거부했다. 올해 초 두 회사는 부품 및 소프트웨어 공유를 위해 협력하여 잠재적으로 통합을 위한 기반을 마련했다.
이번 합병 논의는 닛산이 수익성 약화, 2018년 카를로스 곤(Carlos Ghosn) 전 회장의 축출로 인한 격동의 시기에서 회복하는 등 지속적인 도전과 씨름하고 있는 가운데 나온 것이다.
또한 테슬라 및 중국 경쟁업체들과 경쟁하기 위해 전기 자동차 제품을 확대해야 한다는 압박을 받고 있다.
화요일 장 마감 시점에 혼다의 미국 거래 주가는 0.96% 상승한 25.26달러, 닛산의 장외 주가는 11.46% 상승한 5.11달러로 상승하는 등 긍정적인 반응을 보였다.
