Read MoreHide Full Article
In sync with its decision to exit the commercial aircraft leasing business, CIT Group Inc. announced to sell 30% stake in the joint ventures with Tokyo Century Corporation. The deal is expected to be completed by Mar 31.
Following the divesture, Tokyo Century will become the sole owner of aircraft leasing joint ventures – TC-CIT Aviation Ireland and TC-CIT Aviation U.S., Inc. – of which it holds 70% stake as of now.
CIT Group plans to concentrate on its middle-market and small business lending areas that will likely get support from its growing banking franchises.
The company plans to use the proceeds from this deal and from the sale of CIT Commercial Air, announced in Oct 2016, to return capital to its shareholders.
The company’s strategic decision to become a regional commercial banking institution raises hope for performance enhancement in the future. Also, its capital deployment activities expected to be more impressive going forward. However, we fear its exposure to risky loan portfolio.
CIT Group belongs to the Zacks categorized Financial – Miscellaneous Service industry. Some other stocks in the same industry worth a look include Marathon Patent Group, Inc. (MARA - Free Report) , On Deck Capital, Inc. and Houlihan Lokey, Inc. (HLI - Free Report) .
