Nora-Sakari Case Analysis

The 2001-2002 failed Caxtalene joint venture negotiations between CLQ and Wyoff provide important lessons on how to avoid failure in the current negotiations over the proposed AD/CE JV at CLQ’s Rizhao complex. In the Caxtalene negotiations there were critical substantive differences which prevented the parties from even reaching a preliminary agreement on ownership structure. Wyoff and CLQ were at polar opposites on both the equity split and the terms of technology transfer, with Wyoff demanding 80% and CLQ not prepared to go over 50%, Wyoff anxious to limit any substantive technology transfer and wanted to charge a substantial licensing fee for any technology that was transferred and CLQ expecting a free transfer of technology as part of the JV agreement.

Charge: “She did on or about 11/10/2015 unlawfully assault and batter Amoni Whitfield, in violation of 18.2-57(A) of the 1950 Code of Virginia as amended.”

He has 25 employees, which he would like to keep employed. He has a home/investment property that he would like to hold onto until the housing market rebounds.

All the interests can be summarized under “maximizing profits”. Without knowing their actual costs for each of the options, I can’t be a 100% sure of the priority of the issues, but I will need to gauge that based on the negotiations. With the given information, it looks like their issues are:

To materialize the negotiation with the Sakari, we (Nora) will accept the Sakari’s proposal about the technology and salaries and perks of the Finnish expertise. Beside this, we will propose different place either in Asia or in Europe for future conflict resolution. Not only this but also a third country will be chosen as a venue for the possible future conflict. Beside this, 40 to 60 percent of equity ownership will be proposed to ensure the relative control of the both parties in JV Company.

The positive to a strip mall is that it is easily accessible for customers to find and shop at the location.

5. What is the Dinar (Pound) value of the joint venture R.T. Nakit (jersey)? What are the project’s value drivers?

There is a great chance that the deal would take place. Even though the cash flows from the Joint Venture will be roughly the same for both Jersey and Prince, except for the assistance fee, the fact that they are subject to different Cost of Capital leads to a big difference in their valuation for the joint venture. As Prince is a family-owned company, Mr. Nakit’s cost of capital is significantly higher than that of Jersey, which is a well-diversified company, which means the 50% of the joint venture would be worth more for Jersey than for Prince. After our valuation, we think Prince will accept for anything above 3.105 million dinars. And Jersey would be willing to pay

The lesson learned from this is that sometimes it is easier and faster reach a new market via joint venture, even though the profit will be less, but the company can save a lot of money in studying the new market trying to understand the new culture and how they purchase and also it can minimize the risk because there is a national brand supporting the new international brand, which gives confidence and security to the customers.

Finnish telephone network was never monopolized by the state, granting many licenses for telephone operations to prevent the Russia to seize its national telephone system when Finland was Russian Grand Duchy. After independence, Finland’s attempts to nationalize poorly performing telecom failed due to political resistance, but could stimulate private operators to upgrade their technology to prevent their nationalization. The legacy of communication business left a lot of competitive companies in the sector for development. However despite all the reasons mentioned above, emerging demand for such technology from global market would be the greatest reason why mobile communication industry emerged in Finland and made Finland a world-leading nation in mobile communication.
