Shares in Z Holdings, which had a stock market value of about $17 billion at Wednesday’s close, jumped 14.8%.Sources told Reuters the previous day a deal was likely by month-end and could see SoftBank Corp and Line’s parent Naver Corp form a 50/50 venture that would control Z Holdings, which would in turn operate Line and Yahoo.
Line said in a statement it was true it is considering ways to improve its corporate value but nothing had been decided. A deal would bring together the operators of two of Japan’s biggest QR code payment apps as the country belatedly shifts to cashless payments. SoftBank’s PayPay recently hit 19 million users through aggressive marketing, while Line Pay can tap the 82 million Japanese users of the Line app.
Line, which last year sold a majority stake in its mobile unit to SoftBank, has reported three consecutive quarters of operating losses as the company tries to jump-start growth.
