Nidec Corporation, a leading manufacturer of small precision motors and automotive components, recently announced the status of its own share repurchase plan. The company authorized the repurchase of up to 10,000,000 shares of its common stock, representing 0.87% of the total number of shares issued (excluding treasury stock), with a maximum repurchase amount of 35 billion yen. The repurchase period extends from May 27, 2024, through May 26, 2025.

As of December 31, 2024, no shares have been repurchased under this plan since its inception on May 27, 2024. This indicates that Nidec has not yet utilized the authorized repurchase plan, leaving the company with the flexibility to execute the plan in the future if market conditions warrant it.

Nidec's share repurchase plan aligns with its dividend policy and shareholder value creation strategy in several ways. By repurchasing shares when the stock price deviates significantly from market trends or changes in the business environment, Nidec can optimize its capital structure and improve shareholder value. This strategy can also signal to the market that the company's management believes its shares are undervalued, potentially attracting more investors and increasing the stock price.

The repurchase plan also allows Nidec to manage its capital more agilely, providing the company with the flexibility to respond to significant stock price changes or changes in the business environment. By repurchasing shares when the stock price is undervalued, Nidec can enhance shareholder value by increasing the intrinsic value of each share.

Nidec's share repurchase plan is a strategic move that demonstrates the company's commitment to creating shareholder value. By repurchasing shares when the stock price is undervalued, Nidec can increase the intrinsic value of each share, potentially leading to higher dividends per share in the future. This strategy aligns with the company's goal of creating shareholder value by optimizing its capital structure and improving shareholder communication.
