Mitsubishi Electric to Transfer Shares of Insurance Subsidiary to Marsh Japan

Business Wire3 days ago
TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today that it has concluded a share transfer agreement under which it will transfer shares of its Tokyo-based subsidiary Mitsubishi Electric Insurance Service Co., Ltd. to Marsh Japan, Inc. on November 4.
Since its establishment in 1999 as an insurance agency for the Mitsubishi Electric Group, Mitsubishi Electric Insurance Service has supported the growth of companies and the life plans of individuals. Marsh Japan, which provides services and solutions to companies of all sizes across Japan, was founded in 1955 as a Japanese subsidiary of Marsh LLC, a world-leading insurance broker and risk advisor owned by Marsh McLennan (NYSE: MMC).
Mitsubishi Electric has been assessing the significance of the insurance business in its portfolio, aiming to further strengthen the company's overall business structure. Considering the evolving business environment for insurance agencies in Japan, Mitsubishi Electric determined having Mitsubishi Electric Insurance Service teamed up with Marsh Japan would best position the company for long-term growth supported by Marsh LLC's global insurance expertise.
The impact of the transaction on Mitsubishi Electric's consolidated financial results is not included in its financial forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026, announced on April 28, 2025, but it is expected to be minor. If there is any significant change, updates will be announced promptly as required.

Why Roblox (RBLX) Shares Are Soaring Today

July 31 - Roblox Corp. (NYSE:RBLX) shares climbed 15% Thursday morning after delivering a blockbuster second-quarter report, fueled by a surprise hit game and surging user engagement. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 6 Warning Signs with RBLX. The stock also jumped 19% before the opening bell, extending its 205% gain over the past year, far outpacing the Nasdaq 100's 24% rise. The gaming platform's bookings, a key metric Wall Street follows, climbed 51% year over year, smashing analyst estimates of 34% growth. Daily active users jumped 41%, and hours spent on the platform soared 58%. Much of that momentum came from Grow a Garden, a farming simulation created by user BMWLux, which reached 21 billion visits and set a record with 22 million concurrent players in June. Roblox continues to invest heavily in cloud infrastructure to handle massive traffic surges, a strategy that has begun to pay off. While the company posted a GAAP operating loss of $1.1 billion over the past 12 months, it generated $942 million in free cash flow and ended June with $4.7 billion in cash and investments. Deferred revenue swelled to $5.1 billion, giving Roblox a solid foundation to push toward long-term profitability. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.
