Toyota Industries Stock Set to Surge as Toyota Explores Investment

Toyota Industries Stock Set to Surge as Toyota Explores Investment.

Shares of Toyota Industries (OTC:TYIDF) were poised to skyrocket on Monday after Toyota Motor (NYSE:TM) announced it was considering an investment in the key parts supplier. Trading in Toyota Industries shares was suspended due to an excess of buy orders, with the bid and ask suggesting a jump to the daily upper limit of 16,225 yen. This marks a potential 23% surge from Friday’s close of 13,225 yen, the biggest one-day gain for the stock in more than 40 years, according to LSEG data.

Over the weekend, Toyota revealed in a Tokyo Stock Exchange filing that it was exploring various options, including a partial investment in Toyota Industries. The announcement followed a Bloomberg report that Toyota Chairman Akio Toyoda and his founding family proposed a potential 6 trillion yen ($42 billion) buyout of Toyota Industries through a special purpose company.

However, Toyota Industries issued its own statement confirming it had received proposals about going private but clarified that it had not received a formal buyout offer from either Toyota’s chairman or the broader Toyota Group.

The news fueled intense investor interest, signaling the potential for a major restructuring within Toyota’s corporate family. The possibility of tighter integration between Toyota and its critical parts supplier could reshape the company’s manufacturing strategy and strengthen its global supply chain.
