allez hup, toch nog een Yank die de sector nauwlettend volgt geeft een kleine update
( TomTom - buy verder geen koersadvies )
sector news:
HERE wants to expand beyond the automotive sector, adding a financial services firm ( denk aan wellicht PE zoals KKR of investment banking zoals Goldman/Morgan) as well as potenial investors from other sectors
TomTom, the smaller and independent player is performing a strategic review
Company considers the ownership of its Telematics unit, worth abt 1bn euro
that transaction wud leave TomTom with a fading consumer biz and with its Automotive and Licensing unit for considerable less than euro 2.5 bn ( acquisition price HERE by German car Inc ) and with an option to return proceeds from the Telematics sale to shareholders
we rate the stock a buy.
