Sumitomo Chemical (4005): Potential Posterchild of Japan’s Resurgence

By Michael Allen

  • Sumitomo Chemicals aims to transform from a cyclical company with low market share in declining markets into a focused entity with high market share in secular growth markets.
  • We estimate that the stock’s fair value is about 140% above the current price.
  • Results meeting on April 30 should confirm that company is on track in returning to positive cash flow and selling off core assets.
