Dai Nippon Printing – Activism On Easy Street

By Mio Kato

  • Dai Nippon Printing’s announcement that it would double its RoE target in its next MTP was a pleasant surprise. 
  • Together with saucy hints that future buybacks could be the biggest in its history this has propelled the stock to a post-2007 high. 
  • We think Elliott has found an easy win here and consider this likely to end as a standout success for activism in Japan.
