Renault faces $11 billion loss on Nissan stake
Renault just announced it'll write down $11 billion on its Nissan stake in early 2025, thanks to Nissan's falling value.
The news shines a light on Nissan's struggles—think dropping sales and an aging lineup—as both companies try to adapt in a fast-changing auto world.
TL;DR
Renault has been slowly shrinking its stake in Nissan, now holding about 36%.
Even with this big loss, Renault says its 2025 financial goals are still on track, and joint projects with Nissan aren't changing.
From here on out, any ups or downs in Nissan's value will show up directly in Renault's equity—not as hits to income.
After the announcement, shares of both companies dipped a bit: Renault down 1%, Nissan down 2.4%.
