Carlos Ghosn Arrested and Expected to be Fired
This was unexpected. I wonder how this will impact the company?
Nissan Motor Chairman Carlos Ghosn has been arrested by Tokyo authorities, the car maker said Monday, and is expected to be fired by the company at a Thursday board meeting. Japanese media reports say Ghosn under-reported his compensation over five years by approximately $44 million. Link to article: https://www.foxbusiness.com/business...ry-to-be-fired

Damn... he had everything going for him and the companies... like doing that would really be important for their valuation?
Oh well, if true, he's screwed. There's likely a loophole, with some France and Japan shared amounts or something. Good on Japan, no room for BS. |

It really is sad and pretty crazy. I wonder if it was intentional or not. Unsure of how IFRS requirements align with US GAAP, but here in the USA - if your company CEO pay is above a certain threshold as it relates to overall earnings, it triggers all sorts of additional disclosures. Not sure if they were attempting to minimize to avoid the additional disclosure requirements, or if this is related to tax implications, or what. I doubt they did it on purpose to manipulate earnings, since it would be such an insignificant amount - I doubt it would even be material, and possibly below deminimus. Who knows? It's a bad deal all around. I believe that Renault and Nissan stock is currently trading at something like a 17% drop from prior to the announcement.

Ernst & Young, ShinNihon Japan office.
Looks like reporting is done accounting principles generally accepted in Japan. JP GAAP. Quote:
I would be highly suspect if this was his doing. I imagine that this was either an error/omission or if actual fraud, it was done by corporate governance, not done by him as direct fiat.

That being said by Nissan's CEO, while saying he was requesting his dismissal to the board, is very heavy. It seems Japan and Nissan think he is responsible for things he can't claim ignorance to. Oh well, maybe now Mitsubishi will finally go under, their cars were getting more and more hideous lol... |
