[Featured Stock] Kolon Mobility Group Rises 22% on Announcement of BMW Headquarters Subsidiary Spin-off
Kolon Mobility Group's stock price surged after announcing the spin-off of its BMW division into a subsidiary.
As of 9:48 AM on the 12th, Kolon Mobility Group was trading at 4,915 KRW, up 22.11% compared to the previous trading day.
Earlier, after the market closed on the 9th, Kolon Mobility Group announced that it had decided to spin off the BMW division, which operates the BMW dealer business, into a subsidiary named Kolon Motors. This is a simple physical spin-off method where Kolon Mobility Group owns 100% of the newly established company's issued shares. There are no plans for an initial public offering (IPO) of the spun-off subsidiary. Following approval at an extraordinary general meeting next month, the official launch is scheduled for September 1.
The company stated, "By enhancing the independence-based business activities and after-sales services of each subsidiary, we plan to expand our business and growth momentum in the mobility sector, ultimately maximizing corporate value and shareholder value."
