A petrochemicals spin-off is cutting Resonac's revenue guidance by ¥145bn this year, but AI-linked demand for chip packaging materials is driving its profit forecast up 40% to ¥196bn.
The number: Resonac will hand shareholders more than 80% of Culasus Chemical, its ¥300.3bn petrochemical unit, on October 1. The catch: the same carve-out triggers a formulaic cut to the conversion price on Resonac's 2028 euro-yen convertible bonds, sized by a five-day trading comparison between the two stocks from September 29 to October 5. The board still has to vote on the spin-off in late August, and the exact price adjustment won't be known until after that trading window closes.
