Shunki Nakamura has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Toei Animation Co., Ltd.’s strategic positioning and future growth potential. The company’s recent investment in Preferred Networks and plans for a joint venture focused on AI-driven production are seen as significant steps towards improving production efficiency. This move is particularly important in addressing labor constraints and rising costs in the anime industry.
Moreover, Toei Animation’s resilience to economic fluctuations, such as tariffs and recessions, further supports the positive outlook. The presence of multiple catalysts for growth reinforces the Buy rating, suggesting that the company is well-positioned to capitalize on emerging opportunities in the media and entertainment sector.
