Toyota Industries Receives $33 Billion Buyout Offer From Group Companies

  • Toyota Industries Corporation's board has received a $33 billion bid led by members of the Toyota Group aimed at taking the company private in 2025.
  • The offer follows a plan to resolve the criticized parent-child shareholding by creating a holding company led by Akio Toyoda.
  • The transaction involves a tender bid set at 16,300 yen for each share, which is approximately 11% lower than the closing value on June 3, and the total cost is estimated at about 4.7 trillion yen.
  • Critics say the offer undervalues Toyota Industries and risks alienating shareholders while Toyota executives emphasize commitment to Japan and governance improvement.
  • If completed, the buyout could significantly increase founding family control but may reduce transparency and is one of the largest privatizations on record.
