There seems to be a disconnect between Nikola, Its Strategic Partners & It's Investors

CNHI owns over 25 million shares of Nikola, more than Worthington Industries. (WOR)

CNHI has over $4 Billion in cash on hand, more than Worthington Industries. (WOR)

CNHI's stake in Nikola is worth over $1.5 Billion dollars or 7.11%, more than Worthington Industries has.

CNHI has a market cap of around 10 Billion while Worthington only has a market cap of around 2 Billion.

CNHI stock price: $7.08, Worthington Ind. stock price: $35.65 - There's a huge disconnect here.

CNHI owns IVECO, one of its subsidiaries working with Nikola on its electric trucks and charging stations.

CNHI was part of the spinoff / merger with Nikola, this is how Nikola was started.

When you search the news on CNH, IVECO & Nikola, you will see more recent releases including the build-out of a charging network for Nikola vehicles. IVECO is building this for Nikola.

Not only are investors buying the wrong stock, as in Worthington Ind.(WOR), in my opinion, the price of CNHI at current levels is an early Christmas Gift.

I feel at minimum, CNHI should be trading upwards of $20.00 a share just because of the 25+ million share stake in Nikola, and this is aside from the partnership they have with Nikola through IVECO.

A promising cooperation from the Capital Markets Day

CNH Industrial’s Capital Markets Day brought Nikola’s technological innovation to the new Iveco and Fpt Industrial spin-off. CNH Industrial, in fact, announced its intention to enter into a strategic partnership with the company based in Phoenix to accelerate industry transformation towards emission neutrality of Class 8/Heavy-Duty Trucks in North America and Europe through the adoption of fuel-cell technology.

The words of Nikola and CNH

Trevor Milton, Chief Executive Officer, Nikola Corporation, said: «Nikola has the technology but needs a partner with a European network to achieve it in a timely manner. By bringing CNH Industrial on board, we now have access to manufacturing know-how, purchasing power, validated truck parts, plant engineering and much more».

Gerrit Marx, President Commercial and Specialty Vehicles, CNH Industrial, added: «While today LNG delivers significantly lower well-to-wheel emissions, in the medium to long-term, fuel-cell and BEV technologies will deliver the ultimate goal of zero-emission trucking. With our LNG technology we have proven to be European disruptors, taking the lead in industry transformations including fuel supply and lifecycle ownership».

Nikola anticipates raising over $1 billion USD in the D round, granting approximately 25% ownership to new investors and business partners, including CNHI.

IVECO and FPT Industrial, the commercial vehicle and powertrain brands of CNH Industrial respectively, will assist in engineering and manufacturing expertise to industrialize Nikola’s fuel-cell and battery electric trucks. The following vehicles will benefit from this partnership: the Nikola ONE, a NAFTA- compliant Class 8 sleeper truck; the Nikola TWO, a NAFTA-compliant Class 8 day-cab truck; and the Nikola TRE, a European compliant cab-over Heavy Duty Truck.
