Atul Goyal has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors, primarily focusing on Sony’s strategic investment in Bandai Namco. Sony’s acquisition of a 2.5% stake in Bandai Namco for ¥68 billion signifies a commitment to enhancing its intellectual property (IP) strategy, especially in the realms of anime, games, music, and consumer products.
By forming a strategic business alliance with Bandai Namco, Sony aims to leverage joint successes in popular IPs like Gundam SEED FREEDOM and Demon Slayer. This collaboration is expected to bolster Sony’s upstream IP strategy and support Bandai Namco’s ambitions for global expansion, making the investment a promising move for future growth.
