Overall Assessment of the Value-Up Policy-Related Aspects of the Tax Reform Plan Released Today
- The highest dividend tax rate drops from 49.5% to 25%, leading the local capital market to view the reform as more shareholder-focused than company-focused.
- The top inheritance tax rate drops from the 60% range to 40%, a meaningful reduction for conglomerates like Hyundai and Hanwha, though below initial expectations.
- Tax incentives in the reform are less aggressive than expected, with modest corporate and inheritance tax cuts. However, this compromise increases the likelihood of its passage, boosting short-term market expectations.
Yes Bank’s Retail Therapy Proves Expensive
- Reconstructed board of Yes Bank implemented an ill-conceived, poorly executed retail strategy to revive the bank
- Structural problem of low net interest margin and high overheads not resolved
- Retail assets strategy characterised by low yield, high operating cost and rising credit cost which the bank has finally acknowledged
Ashford Inc (AINC) – Wednesday, Apr 24, 2024
- Ashford Inc. has approved a going dark transaction offering $5.00 cash per share to common stockholders with fewer than 10,000 shares
- Potential profits of $2,300 using 9,999 shares represent a 4.8% return, annualizing to 19.2% due to a projected July closing
- AINC is a hotel management company led by Monty Bennett, and the transaction is subject to a stockholder vote and IRA Waiver Proposal, with directors and executive officers expressing their support.

P10 Inc (PX) – Wednesday, Apr 24, 2024
- P10 is an alternative asset manager providing access to private markets, charging fees on committed capital over a 10-to-15-year period.
- Recent decrease in cash margins due to factors like strategy mix shift and CEO transition has led to P10 trading at a highly discounted multiple of AUM and revenue.
- Valuation uncertainty and disappointing growth forecasts for 2024 may be offset by potential for growth and re-rating of equity with new CEO focused on improving FPAUM and margins.
